Assembly

  • Frameless RTA cabinets assemble like quality furniture, with cam locks and dowels. Basic skills and normal home improvement tools are enough; a screw gun is the main tool.
  • Each cabinet arrives in 2-3 boxes: box parts, doors, and hardware. Drawers come unassembled.
  • Full-overlay doors leave small gaps, so the install needs to be level and square. If you are not experienced, we recommend a local professional installer.
  • Ask us for the assembly manuals; our team sends them with your order.
