Ingenious Hanger

IMG_5825.JPG

I’ve watched more than my fair share of “This Old House” and, having once been a construction worker, I’ve seen more than my fair share of kitchen cabinets.

I’ve never seen a more ingenious wall hanging system than the one featured on IKEA’s cabinets.

A metal rail is securely fastened about a quarter inch from the ceiling. Into the rail bolts are placed, which are positioned so that they protrude through the back of the cabinet.

You just fasten the rails, place the bolt and lift the cabinet over the bolts, then secure them.

In this picture, Mr. Soong, our handyman, is placing the first cabinet.

You can also see in this picture that the offending soffit has been removed..
