Features of assembling and installing a corner kitchen

Regardless of size, kitchens are certainly subdivided into two zones. The first is used for cooking, and the second is considered to be dining. The working area must certainly have a sink, stove, extractor hood and a couple of tables for comfort. Many people try to complement this area with other elements: a dishwasher, a microwave and other kitchen appliances to simplify the cooking process.

Of course, there are a lot of objects and all this should be comfortably located in a very limited area. In this case, the salvation will be the installation of a corner kitchen, which makes it possible to rationally use the space. Assembling a corner kitchen is not an easy task, but you can still install it yourself.

It is better to install the headset after all the cabinets are assembled. For convenience, it is better to fasten the doors last - this will simplify the installation process. The installation process begins by preparing all the holes in the walls.

Placement should be carefully monitored during installation. If the fastening is incorrect, the kitchen will look inappropriate in the future.

Do-it-yourself kitchen assembly requires careful preparation. To avoid mistakes, you should carefully plan everything and only then start the installation process.

• The first step is to make a drawing, where to think over the design, size and layout of the corner kitchen to the smallest detail. An L-shaped kitchen set will be an excellent solution for both a small kitchen and a large area.
• Purchase of materials and cutting. When choosing a material, you should pay attention not only to beauty, but also to quality. Cutting and detailing are necessary for a clear idea of ​​which parts should be cut. Only after that you can proceed with the installation of the furniture itself.
• Preparation of tools and surfaces. Naturally, tools will be needed for collection, but besides this, when installing a corner kitchen, you need to prepare the walls and make them even. After all, all joints of the headset must be connected exclusively at an angle of 90 degrees.
• After all the preparations, you need to assemble the corner cabinet. This detail is always assembled first, because it is she who is the main one.
• After mounting the corner, you can start assembling the rest of the headset elements.

Every detail of the headset is nothing more than a wooden box (they differ only in size and shape). In order to assemble a completely kitchen, it is enough to learn how to assemble one cabinet, and you can assemble the rest using the technology studied.

After all the cabinets and drawers have been assembled, you need to install all this, but this business also has its own characteristics and you need to follow the sequence.

• The first to mount the corner cabinet, in most cases it comes with a sink.
• Then, focusing on the corner cabinet, install all the floor boxes. Adjust their height and angle immediately.
• After adjustment, the cabinets are fastened together using self-tapping screws or ties.
• Secure the countertop and sink.
• Move on to the assembly and fastening of the hanging boxes. Before attaching them, adjust the height for comfortable operation.
• Attach all doors and screw on the skirting board.

Correct installation of a corner cabinet with a sink lies in accurate calculations, it is for this reason that it is installed in the first place. An important feature is the hole for the sink and the layout of the pipeline that supplies water to the sink and drain to the drain. With this layout, it is best to use a pipe without a back wall to allow access to the pipes. Then the rigidity for the structure is provided by special screeds.

Consider the order of assembling the cabinet.

• A fastener must be screwed onto the side wall of the cabinet. It is necessary to drill small holes for self-tapping screws, with their help screw the mount.
• In addition, holes must also be drilled on the walls of the drawers - it is on them that the rail will be attached. If you do not do this in advance, then during the installation of the kitchen unit, difficulties with this process may arise.
• Where the box has a blind hole, insert a wooden chopik (dowel). This will help to assemble the frame of the box evenly and significantly increase the strength of the structure.
• Only after a thorough examination and making sure that the structure is assembled smoothly can the parts be fixed with a screw and a hexagon. To hide the screw head and give the headset an aesthetic look, a plug is put on top to match the kitchen.
• If the cabinets have legs, then they should be screwed on and set to the required level.
• After the assembly of the box is completed, a fiberboard sheet is nailed onto the side wall with the help of small nails.
• As for the hanging boxes, you need to attach fittings to them, with which they will cling to the wall. It is best to use adjustable awnings.

Of course, buying a kitchen unit will save you unnecessary hassle, but it will not be able to meet all your requirements. Standard headsets are on sale - they are not designed for some of the features of your kitchen. The advantages of making your own hands:

• the main advantage will be the cost of the kitchen, which will cost half the price of a ready-made or custom-made one;
• the ability to make a non-standard model - you can take into account all the features;
• with correct calculations and assembly, the headsets will last for many years;
• you can choose a very original design that goes beyond the standard perception.

When making your own products, you take risks, because a lack of experience and certain skills can lead to a deterioration in quality. At the same time, today there is a mass of literature in which the entire manufacturing process is described in detail - when studying all the nuances, even a beginner will be able to cope with the task at hand. As a reward for the work done, you will receive not only excellent kitchen furniture, but also pride in such hard work.
