sure happy to help. But what kind of cabinet, wall or base.

Wall and base cabinets are installed with screws. Now the most important part is to install the screws into the wall studs. This is more important for wall cabinets because they can fall, where a base cabinet cant fall. I like to make a level line on the wall using a snap line to where the bottom of the wall cabinets will be. With a helping hand have someone hold the wall cabinet on that line while you screw and level the cabinet. Now always screw the top of the cabinet first. On the cabinet it self you will a piece of wood perpendicular to the cabinet, this is where you screw. Either from the inside of the cabinet or on the top and bottom. This really depends on the type of cabinet you have. Framed or frame less.

Once you have one installed you just put the next cabinet up next to it. Now it can get a little harder, you want to make sure that the cabinet level and square to the cabinet you just installed. Screw it up as you did before but now you will have to screw the frames together, keeping them very even.

Just do the base cabinets the same way. But here is a big mistake I seen made all the time, Always install the wall cabinets first. Why you ask. so you can get to it, mush easier..

as far as your panels go, if your referring to the quarter inch panels that would go on the sides, I always use a good construction glue and maybe a few brad nails and clamps..

Hope this helps you...

Regards... Dominick
