Attaching ikea cabinets to each other.
And are there any particular screws i should be using.

Cabinets 24 inches or taller always get three screws connecting the face frames.
I have some 1 1 4 deck screws on hand.
I then drill the screw pilot holes.
If you have limited wall space you could instead build the besta cabinets vertically.
This blue floating wall unit in the picture was made by attaching two three door cabinets in 15 and 25 1 4 on top of each other.
I put a minimum of two screws in each one about 1 5 inches from the top and bottom of the face frame opening.
My cabinets came pre assembled and i know to screw the units together before attaching them to my kitchen walls.
I use two clamps to squeeze the cabinet frames together.
I wanted to stack 4 bestå cabinets on top of each other and attach them together to make them very stable.
Just don t screw it in too.
When attaching them to each other though should i be using construction adhesive as well or just screws.
They were 2 brackets for hooking them together at the back and a strip of double sided tape for the front pix.
