Now that you have your new RTA Kitchen Cabinets, let's talk about assembly. RTA Kitchen Cabinets are about as easy to assemble as it gets. The basic box of RTAcabinets is held together by cam locks, which create a nice tight cabinet (much stronger than staples or dowels). All that is required for assembly is a flathead screwdriver. For the drawer base cabinets, you may want to have a drill handy to help tighten the screws that are needed to hold the drawer slides and even the drawer faces together. Most RTA Kitchen Cabinets can be assembled in less than 5 minutes. All of the cabinets will come with step-by-step instructions on how to assemble each cabinet style. If you want to see a sample instruction sheet for the RTA Cabinets, check out the resources page at RTA Cabinet Store for a sample page.
Once you have your cabinets assembled, it is time to start prepping to install your RTA Kitchen Cabinets. The preparation work is the most important part of the process, since in most cases, the floor is not going to be perfectly level and the walls are not going to be perfectly straight... that is just the way it is. By find the high spots on the floor and the bumps in the walls, you can take steps before installation to ensure that your RTA kitchen cabinets are flush and level. If you go to the website Hubpages and search for kitchen installation, there is a great article that walks you step-by-step thru the kitchen cabinet installation process called Kitchen Cabinets: How to Install Kitchen Cabinets Yourself.
While RTA Kitchen Cabinets will involve more labor on your part, the savings versus custom cabinets, plus the savings from installing your RTA Kitchen Cabinets yourself, will make this a rewarding DIY, both personally and monetarily.
