RTA kitchen cabinets arrive ready to assemble. Because they are shipped unassembled, not only does shipping cost less, but the price you pay for the cabinets is drastically reduced. With ready-to-assemble cabinets, you receive all of the required hardware and parts needed to put them together.
It should be noted this does not include the handles, mounting screws, and actual tools needed to assemble them. Most of the holes are already predrilled, so it is just a matter of laying out the right sections, putting them together in order, and using the correct hardware.
Should You Buy RTA Kitchen Cabinets
Because RTA kitchen cabinets require assembling, you need to decide whether this is something you want to attempt on your own or to use a professional contractor. Before making up your mind, it is worth your time to review our free online assembly videos.
Each video demonstrates how to assemble a variety of cabinets, such as the base, wall, base end, wall diagonal corner, Lazy Susan corner, dovetail drawers, under-mount soft-close L-track, ball bearing soft-close track, and soft-close hinge.
After watching the videos, if you decide you would rather use a contractor, let us know, as we can help you find a qualified one in your area.
If you decide to assemble your kitchen cabinets yourself, you need to allow plenty of time to complete the project. Some people get frustrated because it takes much longer than they initially expected to put all of their cabinets together.
The actual time needed depends upon your experience level with working with tools and the amount of time you have available to work on your project.
