Before you start assembling the
cabinets, try to set up a good work

you have the recommended equip-
ment/tools close-by.
Sort the packages into groups to
avoid confusion over which pieces
belong to the cabinet assembly
and which belong to appliances,
for example.

idea if you assemble all frames one
by one and push them aside until
the time comes to install them.
It’s helpful if you arrange your
cabinets in the order you will be
installing them. Use your packing
list and IKEA home planner draw-
ing to help you.
Assembling the cabinets and frames
ENHET cabinets can be installed with or without a plinth, depending on your personal preference.
See page 12 for info on how to assemble the legs if you choose to have a plinth.

where your base cabinets will be located. Make sure
the strip does not go beyond where the last cabinet
ends or it will collide with your plinth at the end.

For the upper strips, align the top of the strip with
the 1466mm line. Then, screw the strips to the studs
you’ve located behind your wall. The upper strips
are only temporary and will be removed once you’ve
installed the cabinets.
Start by installing the supporting strips. You can use
any straight long piece of wood available at your local
hardware store.
