Install Medicine Cabinet In Wall

Installing a medicine cabinet in the wall can be a great way to save space and keep your bathroom looking organized. However, it can be a bit of a challenge to do it yourself. Here are step-by-step instructions on how to install a medicine cabinet in the wall:

1. Choose a location for the cabinet. The cabinet should be placed at a height that is easy to reach, but not so high that it is difficult to see into the mirror. It should also be placed in a location that is not too close to the shower or bathtub, as the steam and moisture can damage the cabinet.

2. Mark the location of the cabinet on the wall. Use a level to make sure that the cabinet will be hung straight. Once you have marked the location of the cabinet, use a stud finder to locate the studs in the wall. The studs will provide support for the cabinet.

3. Cut out the opening for the cabinet. Use a drywall saw to cut out the opening for the cabinet. The opening should be slightly larger than the cabinet itself, so that there is room for the cabinet to be inserted.

4. Install the mounting brackets. The mounting brackets will come with the cabinet. Use screws to attach the mounting brackets to the studs in the wall. Make sure that the mounting brackets are level.

5. Insert the cabinet into the opening. Lift the cabinet into the opening and align it with the mounting brackets. Push the cabinet into the opening until it is flush with the wall.

6. Secure the cabinet to the wall. Use screws to secure the cabinet to the mounting brackets. Make sure that the cabinet is securely attached to the wall.

7. Install the shelves. The shelves will come with the cabinet. Insert the shelves into the cabinet and adjust them to the desired height.

8. Install the door. The door will come with the cabinet. Attach the door to the cabinet using hinges. Make sure that the door is aligned properly.

9. Caulk around the cabinet. Use caulk to seal the gap between the cabinet and the wall. This will help to prevent moisture from getting into the cabinet.

10. Install the mirror. The mirror will come with the cabinet. Attach the mirror to the cabinet using adhesive. Make sure that the mirror is aligned properly.

Once you have followed these steps, your medicine cabinet will be installed and ready to use.
