How to install lazy susan hardware

Does your kitchen cabinet need a little extra storage space? Installing lazy susan hardware is a great way to organize and maximize the storage in your cabinets.

But it can be tricky to install. Don't worry, though—we've got you covered!

With this guide, you'll be able to install lazy susan hardware like a pro.


Install Lazy Susan Hardware In 3 Easy Steps


Step 1: Measure the Space and Purchase the Appropriate Hardware


The first step in installing lazy susan hardware is measuring the space where the hardware will go. Measure both the diameter of the cabinet opening and the height of the opening from floor to ceiling.


Note whether you need round or square-corner hardware, as this will determine what type of hardware you must purchase. Once you have all of your measurements, buy your hardware from a home improvement store or online retailer.


Step 2: Remove Existing Cabinet Shelving


Before you can install your new hardware, you must remove any existing shelving that may be in place in your cabinet.

To do this safely, use caution when removing screws or brackets that are holding up existing shelves.

Carefully set aside any shelf supports that may have been attached to make room for your new installation.




Step 3: Install New Lazy Susan Hardware


Once all of the existing shelving has been removed, it's time to start installing your new lazy susan hardware! Start by attaching support brackets if necessary; these will help keep everything securely in place while providing additional stability for heavier items on shelves above.


Then position the top plate against one side of the cabinet opening so that its edge is flush with one side of the wall.


Securely attach it using the screws provided with your kit before repeating this process with another plate on an opposing wall or side of the cabinet opening (depending on which type of corner configuration you purchased).


Finally, affix any additional components such as bearing plates or spindles as outlined in your installation instructions before adding shelves and installing them onto their respective supports.

Conclusion


Installing lazy susan hardware can seem intimidating at first, but it doesn't have to be! With just a few simple steps and some basic tools, anyone can successfully add more storage space and organization to their kitchen cabinets by installing lazy susan hardware like a pro!

Don't forget to measure twice and buy once when purchasing materials for your project so that everything fits perfectly!

And remember—if something seems too difficult or confusing during installation, don't hesitate to ask for help from an experienced friend or family member who knows how to get things done right! Good luck!
