My former neighbor, calls himself a handyman, but has extensive experience building and remodeling homes. He was building new cabinets in his garage for his new home. He taught me the same method. He said build you toe kick frame, then spend the time to level it. Once that’s done, attach your cabinets on top. Then your not fighting each cabinet to be level and matching the other ones.

I attach a level ledger board across the wall. Place boxes on top and use the plastic adjustable legs for the front. So simple and always perfectly level.
-
a 10 minute video and literally every second is good info... nice
-
You have what it takes to be a great teacher, precise without BS.
-
There are a ton of great woodworkers on YouTube but I will say I always learn a ton from you. I have watched all your cabinet making videos going back several years. I had never made a cabinet when I watched your first one. Since then I have made many including a kitchen remodel. Thanks and keep them coming.
-
Simple, informative, relaxing and awesome.
-
What a great plan. This will save me so much time building out my shop cabinets.
-
I used this method on a recent project. It made the installation go much smoother and faster. Great results. Thanks
-
ladder box toe kicks have been SOP for us since the early 80's. solid and speeds up install. thumbs up
-
That was absolutely brilliant! I will be following your method from here on. Thanks for taking the time to compile and post.
-
Some very good tips and demo, Bent. So much easier to level than built-in toe kicks.
-
No nonsense approach - gets the job done efficiently. I like it.
-
Your videos are extremely well done. The angles, lighting and the way that you describe the process makes it all a very nice package. Thank you!
-
Never done cabinet installation, but learned a lot from this simple but well put video.
-
As a flooring installer that occasionally needs to pry off the toe kick to get my flooring together, I appreciate the the way your cabinets are constructed. Well done!
-
For kitchen cabinets, I install drawer slides and drawers in the toe kicks. They are great for the rarely used roasting pans and cookie sheets.
-
This is Old School Carpentry, if the base is solid and level the rest falls in place . . .glad to see someone put the time in to show others Old School techniques +++ points for that
-
This is the best advice I have ever seen regarding cabinetry. Thank you so much for making this excellent video!👍
-
This is so timely, I actually followed your video for making the carcasses and also the video on blum undermount slides, I have both cabinets assembled with their drawers in my workshop, but they've just been sitting there for two weeks while I thought about how to install them. This will give me the motivation to finish them!
-
Really enjoying these videos. I'd love to see you keep it going with scribing the filler strips and the top to the walls, and scribing the toe kick.
