How to Level IKEA Metod Cabinets on Uneven Albany Floors

Fitting a kitchen in Albany often comes with a common headache: unlevel subfloors. Whether you are installing a premium IKEA Metod system or custom carcasses, setting them on an sloping floor will cause cabinet warping and countertop stress.

Here is how our qualified installers align cabinets to showroom standards.

1. Projecting Laser Datums We find the highest floor point using 3D cross lasers, marking a horizontal line across all walls to serve as our height benchmark.

2. Multi-Point Shimming We use heavy-duty plastic shims under cabinet legs to distribute weight evenly. This is crucial if you are setting heavy stone benchtops later.

3. Scribing Kickboards Flush Finally, we scribe and trim the bottom kickboard toe-kicks, ensuring a flush finish to the floor line with no gaps.
