Setting Customer Expectations

Kitchen Cabinets 1. Kitchen cabinets must be plumb, level and secured to the walls and/or floor.

a. The countertop must lie flat within 1/8” to eliminate stress on the corners, cut-outs and seams. b. It is the responsibility of the customer to ensure cabinets are plumb, level and square. c. All cabinetry and end panels must be completely and permanently installed (set and level) prior to the date countertops are scheduled to be field templated. Cabinets resting on top of the countertop (e.g. appliance garage, etc.) must be installed after the installation of the countertop. Adequate Support 1. The surface type and material thickness dictate the amount of overhang permitted on a countertop. The

countertop can support an overhang of: • 0-6” Overhang - No Support needed • 6-18” - Bracket or Corbel required • 18-24” - Brackets AND supporting legs

The Thinscape countertop can support and overhang of 6” without adding additional brackets or corbels. However, at least 70% of the total countertop must be supported by cabinets, an island, kneewall etc. All overhangs in excess of those previously mentioned will require corbels or brackets. Overhangs 18” to 24” require corbels or brackets, and supporting legs. All support brackets, corbels and supporting legs must be installed prior to field template. New or existing cabinets must be structurally sound to withstand the weight of the countertop. Fasten to cabinets with 1/8” beads and dabs of 100% silicone, DO NOT use mechanical fasteners, Insert method only.
