I worked for a kitchen company for three years, out of high school. One guy was a former electrician, one was a retired plumber. Great training for the handyman business. How I ended up a union glazier in NYC is anyone’s guess. But I still dabble when it’s slow in my trade. Much more fun. Keep the videos coming. I never miss them.

Recently purchased a house I was about to install cabinets on my own. I’m so happy I found your video. You saved me so much money. Thanks for posting the tools used. You’re the man!!

Awesome. My previous homeowner removed the cabinets in the laundry room. This is exactly what I needed to know to put them back up. Thanks!

I like to hide my mounting screws behind the shelves looks clean

Could work however sometimes the backing of the cabinet is too cheap to hang a cabinet from

A few remarks. Thank you for including the following: tips, tricks, and tools needed (w/ hyperlinks). The clincher is that you aren't a jerk in the videos, or a know-it-all, and you speak coherently. Great video editing, as well. Really appreciate your page, Handyman. - Cheers!

I think this was one of your best videos as far as explaining what tools your using and how to do something. Normally you just record yourself. Thanks for sharing the tools your using,I know what I'll be buying on my next trip to the home improvement store. Love your videos and I recommend you to everyone. Keep up the great work.

I have always been a big DYI guy. I've even had a handyman business for awhile when I was younger. I must say that your vids are some of the BEST - thx

Really glad I found your channel. Im getting ready to start a kitchen reno. These tools will be a great addition. Great videos! Thank you!

Thank you Handyman for showing this video on cabinet installation. I appreciate you showing the use of tools and method of installation.

Good info. I like the third hands and use them often. A couple of other tips I use. I like to locate the top and bottom screws at the hinge location to hide them. I also use trim head screws to go through the face frames. McFeely's has really strong hardened screws that seldom break, even in hardwood. Proud to call myself a Handyman. Cheers!

I bought a pair of those bessy clamps after watching your first video. They are nice. I also bought four of those blue zip-up poles after you posted that video a few months back and have used them for holding plastic up. I bought a pair of the mini third-hand poles for mounting cabinets when you already have a countertop.

Very nice demo. The right tools make all the difference. I have two new dishwasher installs tomorrow and sure as shooting, the base cabinets will not be vertically square and at least one of the old ones will be a nightmare to extract because the floor tile was installed after DW was shoved in the hole, and the other one, I'll have to trim a cabinet to get the new DW pull down door to open correctly. But with the right tools, no sweat. keep up the good work Handyman.

Nice video h-man. As a veteran handyman I appreciate your videos. Not only are they a good help to many diy ers out there, but they may entice more young people to the trade that may otherwise feel that sitting in a cubicle banging on a computer is the only way to go. thanks.

Yah for that comment✅

Handyman you continue to Rock it! I feel I am pretty handy but I always learn something new or you confirm I do something right or wrong when I watch your video. Thanks for being honest and humble.

Thanks for the recommendations. Just ordered the clamps and third hand

Excellent vid Great explanation. On stud finder. They work best when you put it on wall let it set up about 2 seconds than move it across. Many hit button and move right away. Wait than move you’ll like it better. Thank you again. I have now learned another use for my fast cap poles!!

Hard work pays off. Thanks for sharing!

I have 2 of those bessey clamps; game changer tool right there!

Great video. It's enthusiastic and empowering. You do so well explaining simple things that are commonly overlooked.

Thanks for sharing so much excellent content. The third hand and face clamps are now in my tool arsenal! Thanks for sharing very helpful knowledge.

Nice video, witch tools that are definitely a must for a good kitchen cabinet install! I recommend 3 clamps for alignment, e.g. top, bottom and center.

The Clamps look really cool. never saw those before. Third hand is a great tool also. Thanks for the video.

I like the stud buddy from home depot. It just works off magnets finding the drywall screws. Works great, no batteries. It has never let me down like a stud finder has.

Great tool ideas !! Gotta get a pair of those cabinet clamps

Your videos rock and I appreciate the links to all the tools!

Awesome job explaining!! Ty!

Great video! The clamps are nifty!

You always have the MOST INFORMATIVE videos...Thanks!

Awesome video. Will remember this for that day I am asked to put some up & look at those tools used. Keep up the great work bud

Thanks for the instructions. Your doing a great job.

Thanks for clams, I like them!!!

Well we’ll we’ll.... looks like this guy will be ordering the third hand set and clamps😎Thanks for the info !

I used a truck bed cargo bar when I did mine. Has holes in the feet so I attached square pieces of wood.

Thanks dude , been working on cabinets lately super informative and helpful

Thanks for the vid. Good stuff. Helpful!

Always enjoy your videos there young man. Not sure if i missed it but showing how to shim the cabinets in different scenarios would be great. I am actually in the process of renovating our kitchen. My best too yo and your family,William

Thank you, we appreciate it!! This girl can💃🏽

Loving the vids Brother, keep 'em coming! I hope to have some up myself in the next few days.

Great demonstration!

VERY informative video!!! Thank you!!!

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks showing those tools and their uses.

Great job thanks for the advice

I recommend a ledger board that you pre level. This is great if you plan on a backsplash this would be a good reference point for measuring where your studs are in the wall.

Great idea, I do this every time. Makes solo installation much easier.

I searched KZread for vinyl floor installation and you came up in the search. I’ve since binge watched for a week now tons of your videos. I find them entertaining and very informative. I also think you have a great personality and sense of humor. It’s funny how I try to find clues of your location in the country for no other reason other then trying to find a slip up on your part.lol Anyway, how in the hell do you keep a balanced relationship with your marriage? You seem to work a lot of late night hours and weekends.

Thanks so much for sharing!

That video helped a lot! Thanks.

13:04 Now THAT'S confidence in your work! ;-)

Regular wood screws for the face frames, i drill them with a tapered countersink drill bit. GRK screws to attach to walls. You don’t want to get pull through for holding the weight of the cabinet. Good video.

Hi, just watched your "must have tools to install cabinets," gotta tell you, you make this so easy... Loved the video, your presentation was excellent, moreover, it will save me installation costs...

awesome guide to installing cabinets

Love this video. Very informative and concise.

Thanks for your help!

Great video. I've been a trim carpenter for 20 plus years an installed probably 100 sets of cabinets before I discovered the face clamps. There are truly a life an back saver. Makes lining up the cabinet styles an rails effortless. I would check into trim head screws for attaching cabinets together. The head is just about same size as the screw itself. I swear you will love the results. An they are handy for a lot of other situations. I was in trim carpentry for a long time before I discovered trim head screws also. I'm definitely not trying to be condescending because I'm still always trying to learn. An watch your videos often to learn the business side of it all. An I've learned alot. Thanks an God bless

No worries. Like I said been in it 20 years an still learning. I just discovered CA glue a week ago an used it atleast 10 times. I use it to glue crown an base returns an rolled corners. Saves me from having to glue em an then kill time waiting for dry time. I have learned a lot from your videos on talking to customers an selling my work at the prices it calls for. Estimating has always been intimidating at times. An it's easy to sell yourself short. When I watched your video I was like that's me going over what I'm gonna say an how I'm gonna respond. It's all about confidence an doing research to know what your talking about. Anyways it was awesome to see I'm not the only one running over it all in my head over an over. Sorry for the rant an keep it up brother

The clamps are great. Use them to get your drill bit to go in straight. Use #8 or #9 deck screws. Then use a long 1/8" drill bit to pre-drill. Use a drill stop or piece of tape to know when to stop drilling. You can counter sink the screws in. Get a countersink bit or a countersing w/o bit.

Great demonstration and review of the tools

Thanks for making such clear and to the point videos 👍🏿👍🏿

Always good stuff.

I do use the cabinet screws..an finish screws for face frames..AN YES A LAZER...HA..I USE THE SMALLER DRILL AN IMPACTS FOR CABINET WORK THOU.. keep up the beautiful work my friend

I have all these same tools if they would only work! But unlike the Japanese shovel that stands on it's own these tools work extremely well with a human involved. Six foot, Eight foot true straight edge and true plumb levels to true everything up . Also a ledger board for uppers will keep all cabinets of like kind on the same plane. great video ..

Nice video. All simple and clear.

Thank you . I learned a lot .

This was a good learning video! Thanks

Great video as always Handyman!

Thanks for the tips

Thanks for the tips Handyman

Very helpful. Nice work.

That is awesome. Thanx

Great video.

Sweet vid.

Another thing I do is rub a bar of soap along the screws before i put them in. As the screw turns, it heats up and melts the soap, which lubricates it and helps eliminate split stiles

great tip. I will have to try that one.

I am definitely curious to see how you like the walabot. Looking forward to that video

Youmake the channel grow👏

For upper cabinets I put boards under to sit them on, just screw a 2x4 to the studs underneath the cabinets

good job joe ... oldtony

1980 called and wants the framed cabinets back, lol. Seriously though, good informative video...

When Sheetrock is on the wall magnets work great for stud finding.

Great Video

To find studs I just use neodymium magnets. They stick to the walls where there's a screw, and where there's a screw there should be a stud. ;)

Great channel! No cow? Btw, looks like a couple of those shelves were facing the wrong way with the unfinished end facing forward.

Great video as always. We have a different brand pole in Canada called “task” which strip easily. Going to try ordering your third hand ones on amazon. Haven’t seen those cheesy trim washers in years....Andy must of sold then to you....

To add to this, I am torx/ star screws every where, cabinet screws a must, I like tools that double up, less to haul in and out. My impact with 1/4” bits, just swap for star bit to drill bit on one tool. Face frame clamp is nice.

This is a real step up

Oh that walabot is all I use. It saved me from finding wood or metal studs with wires running through them so I didn't hit those wires or plumbing either while drilling or cutting into said wall. Go test it out and looking forward to your thoughts.

cabinet leveling system... reminds me of those tile leveling clips

Oh I like that little vice clamp thing

Stopped by to show my support

Thanks!
