Installing Medicine Cabinets:

Installing most medicine cabinets is actually a pretty easy task. You must first know which type of space you have to mount your medicine cabinet into. Is the space recessed or will it be flush mount? Surface mounted medicine cabinets are hung very easily simply by installing some brackets and hanging them (kind of like hanging a picture on the wall).

When mounting your medicine cabinet it is important to remember that it will probably be very heavy so you will want to make sure it is securely mounted to wall studs using heavy duty brackets.

Your first step is to position the medicine cabinet where you want it to be hung and make sure it is level. You can trace around the cabinet with a pencil to help guide you with hanging and mounting.

Your next step is to locate the studs you will be using to mount the medicine cabinet to.

Next you should drill enough (typically 4) holes into the back panel of the medicine cabinet to allow for the mounting screws.

Lastly you will attach the cabinet to the wall studs using the screws provided with the medicine cabinet. If no wall studs are located in the area you are hanging your cabinet in make sure you use hollow wall fasteners.
