Using An L Bracket? - Forget Them! This Is Way Better Fixing!

"Right then any carpenters or kitchen fitters, how are you fixing your kitchen cabinets to the wall? Because in my opinion there is only one way! And it is not one of these 3 commonly used brackets.

In this video I've got two very commonly used ones and one from a fancy german kitchen company.

None of them are right! You need Space-Plug and 150mm countersunk screws.

First you going to find the centre. You score the mark on the unit. Then you going to countersink the screw in the back of the unit and get your screw started off. Get your Space-Plug pumped in there! Send your screw in until it starts to bite. Then we are going to unwind the Space-Plug to fill the gap. Now this is a little bit tricky, especially when you are holding phone in one hand!

Then once it's filled the gap, just tighten that sucker up and that is it!!

Simple as that! Look at that Easy Peasey!"

Why You Should Ditch the L Bracket for Securing Your Kitchen Cabinets

Let’s talk about the good ol’ L Bracket. You’ve probably used one (or a dozen) if you’ve ever installed kitchen cabinets. They’re everywhere, and they seem like the obvious choice, right? But here’s the thing - there’s a better way!

L Brackets might do the job, but they’re not perfect. In fact, I’d go so far as to say they’re outdated. If you want your cabinets secure and easy to install, Space-Plug paired with a trusty countersunk screw is the way to go.

The Problem with L Brackets

Let’s be honest - L Brackets can be a pain. Sure, they work, but not without some serious drawbacks:

1. They’re fiddly to install: Measuring, aligning, getting the right angle on the screwdriver ... it’s a whole process that can drive you up the wall.
2. They’re not pretty: Even when they’re hidden, L Brackets can leave gaps or awkward angles that scream "meh" instead of "wow."
3. Kitchen Cabinets: they're not flexible. Usually L brackets have to attach at the side of kitchen cabinets, what happens when there is no solid wall, such as brick or stud to drill into where they are located!

Enter Space-Plug: The Game-Changer

If you haven’t heard of Space-Plug, you’re in for a treat. This clever little gadget is designed to make cabinet installation so much easier. It’s strong, adjustable, and gives you that polished, professional finish.

Here’s why it’s better than your trusty L Bracket:

1. Strong and sturdy: Space-Plug, paired with a countersunk screw, locks your cabinets in place like a champ.
2. Quick and easy: Pop it in, adjust it, tighten it, and you’re done. No fiddling with angles or aligning brackets.
3. Invisible finish: Once it’s in, you won’t even know it’s there—just smooth, seamless cabinetry.

How to Install with Space-Plug

Using Space-Plug is ridiculously simple. Here’s how it works:

1. Find the centre (or locate where you can find a solid fix on the wall): Mark the spot on your cabinet where the screw will go.
2. Drill: Drill through the cabinet and into the wall in one go. 
3. Pump in the Space-Plug: Pop the Space-Plug into the gap between the cabinet and the wall. Feed through the countersunk screw.
4. Tighten and adjust: Unwind the Space-Plug to fill the gap, then tighten the screw.

And just like that, your cabinets are secure, perfectly aligned, and looking sharp.
