Learn how to install new kitchen cabinets using purchased cabinet kits.
Insert the posts (from the cam and post assembly system the kit uses) into their intended holes. This joinery system is a knock-down fastening system, because the cams and posts remove easily (knocked-down), unlike a glued and screwed assembly. Each pair of joining cabinet components will be locked together when the posts fit horizontally into their respective cams, and the cams pull the post firmly inside when tightened. We have to press with the side of the hammer to insert each post in its snug pre-drilled hole and then tap the post once with the hammer to seat it.
