Worst case, I can reinforce the cabinet back and sides with L-brackets, and add additional shelves as needed.

George - For what you're wanting to put in the cabinets, I'd think you'll be fine with the ones from Lowe's......if they have the look you want.

If you'd be installing the cabinets yourself and it would be a new venture for you, here's a helpful article that might be of some use: http://www.hammerzone.com/archives/k...t/install.html

To add to what the article said about mounting wall cabinets, some people will level and screw a small board (1"x2", for example) to the wall at the bottom of where the cabinets will mount. Lift the cabinet and set the bottom back board of the cabinet on it. Thus it becomes a place to rest the bottom of the cabinet while you start screwing the top and bottom of the cabinet in place. Afterwards, remove the screws holding the 1x2 in place, spackle a couple of small holes, dab some touch-up paint on them.....and you're done.

Enjoy!

Bill
