Craftsman Wall Cabinet Review
Storage Shelf
This cabinet has one stationary, steel shelf, located at mid-height. The latching mechanism is built into the front of this shelf and easily adjusts to ensure the doors close every time. This cabinet is rated to hold a total of 60 lbs – 30 lbs in the base and another 30 lbs on the shelf.
Quality Construction and Dimensions
The wall cabinet is constructed of high-quality, steel with a baked enamel finish. Here are the dimensions and weight:
- 28″ wide
- 28″ tall
- 12″ deep
- 45 pounds
Assembling and Mounting
Assembling the cabinet was quick. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. All of my hardware was included but in case you’re missing something, call 1-800-4MY-HOME (1-800-469-4663). This cabinet can be mounted on drywall, studs, masonry, and VersaTrack. There are pre-drilled holes in the back for mounting on 16 and 24 inch centers.
- Drywall – make sure it’s anchored to studs
- Masonry – pick up the appropriate hardware and use a hammer drill
- VersaTrack – There is an included bracket allowing it to hang from VersaTrack. This is how I mounted it because I can slide the cabinet as necessary. There is also a small foam block to keep the cabinet parallel to the wall, however this block compresses over time making it ineffective.
Overview
Overall, this is a great wall cabinet. It’s sturdy and made from quality materials. It mounts to just about any surface and goes up quickly. Craftsman added a few nice features like the locking doors and opening for electrical cords. This cabinet and the VersaTrack compliment each other well – providing great storage.
