Hangers
Put the finishing touch on your cabinet installation
B
Details make the difference. Hang cabinets with these painted-head screws, and you will
really make an impression – because the screw head won’t! The sanded or white painted
finish draws less attention than a shiny silver screw head and lets the customer know you
have looked after even the smallest detail. Specially designed for hanging cabinets, only 1-1/2”
of the shank is threaded to prevent the crossthreading that reduces holding power. Extralarge 7/16”-dia. truss head spreads the clamping load out so the screw does not bury itself in
the hanging strip. Type 17 point helps prevent wood splitting when driving the screw. Head
height is 1/16”. Imported.

Anyone that has worked with melamine, particleboard or MDF knows how easy it is to
overdrive a screw and sink it well below the surface. FastCap’s new PowerHead screws have
big 9/16”-dia. heads designed to prevent that very thing. The size increases the holding
power by 4x that of a normal screw head, while the flat surface helps to hide the screw with
a screw cap. Nibs beneath the head allow the screws to seat perfectly flush (use an impact
driver drill for flush installation) or to be left proud of the surface. The self-drilling Type 17
auger point allows them to drive easily in hardwoods and softwoods as well, without the
need for a pilot hole. When used with FastCap’s FlushMount Drill Bit (part # FCS-6050), the
screw head can be hidden perfectly behind a peel-and-stick FastCap. Imported.

Cabinet Installation Made Simple
With a little bit of preparation and a general understanding of the objective, installing
cabinets is really not a big deal! Generally speaking, the objective is to get the cabinets
securely attached to the building with a level work surfaces. Ideally, the installation
should ensure that work surfaces will stay level for many years, as well.
In most applications, cabinets have a 3/4” hanging rail and the wall will be 1/2”
drywall over studs. Install 2x6 blocking between studs during wall construction to
make attachment of the cabinets significantly easier. Install base cabinets on blocking
made of plywood strips rather than the standard 2x4 base to keep work surfaces level
as the structure ages. Plywood is dimensionally stable, whereas framing lumber can
shrink considerably as it dries out − as much as 3/16” in width!
Use 10 x 3 screws when attaching cabinets to wall studs, or use 2-1/2”L screws when
attaching to 2x6 blocking. We carry several suitable fasteners for this purpose (but
you already knew that, didn’t you?). For a finished appearance without resorting to
screw caps or plugs, the 10 x 3 truss head cabinet hanging screw is prefinished with
a clear zinc plated, white or sand colored head. The large bearing surface of a 10 x
3 rounded washer head screw helps prevent crushing of the hanging strip, and the
screws are available in a range of finishes. To match the cabinet interior more closely,
our #10 flat heads can be driven flush and covered with screw caps or driven through
a trim washer (which also increases the bearing area). Clear, zinc plated, yellow, zinc
plated or stainless steel screws are recommended for kitchens and baths to minimize
discoloration.
The method used to fasten cabinet boxes together depends largely upon the type of
cabinets used.
Face frames are generally joined by attaching the stiles together using #8 flat-head
steel screws. The screw should penetrate a minimum of 1” into the second stile. The
hole may be plugged for a finished appearance. Once the faces are flush and tight,
simply predrill the pilot hole (7/64” to 1/8”), flip the drill guide out of the way and
drive the screw tight while the cabinets remain clamped in position.

McFeely’s® Super Round Washer Head Oversize Drawer
Front Screws E
Adjust drawer fronts the easy way!
We call these super round washer head screws, “The only thing you will ever need,” once you
use them for attaching a few drawer fronts. You’ll soon agree with us. The oversize head has
about a 1/2” dia. – 22% larger than standard heads – so it spreads out the load and allows
for adjusting drawer-front alignment for perfect gaps at every opening. Type 17 point helps
prevent wood splitting when driving the screw. Imported.

European cabinet boxes are joined with panel connecting screws, which fit through
predrilled 32mm system shelf pin holes on the inside of adjoining cabinets. Once the
hole for attachment is selected, simply drill through with a 8mm bit, align the boxes
and slip the connectors in place.
