Run through this checklist to make sure your space is fully prepared.\n\n- [ ] Measure entryways and hallways — Clear a wide path from the front door to the kitchen so large cabinet boxes fit through without scraping trim or walls.\n- [ ] Empty every existing cabinet completely — Clear out cookware, dry goods, and dishware ahead of time so workers can start immediately without handling your belongings.\n- [ ] Confirm stud locations and utility marks — Mark plumbing lines, electrical wiring, and gas connections on a sketch so fasteners never strike hidden pipes or cables.\n- [ ] Check local permit requirements — Verify with your municipal building department whether your cabinet project or related utility updates need an active permit.\n- [ ] Inspect finished flooring for level — Find the highest spot on your subfloor or tile to help the installer establish accurate base cabinet reference lines.\n- [ ] Set aside a dry, clean staging room — Clear space in a garage or adjoining living area where delivered cabinet boxes can sit protected from dirt and moisture.\n- [ ] Remove fragile wall decor in nearby rooms — Take down mirrors and pictures hanging on the opposite side of shared walls to prevent vibration damage during fastening.\n- [ ] Secure pets and establish a safe zone — Keep pets and children away from the kitchen work zone to ensure a safe, efficient workspace throughout the job.\n\nHow to use this checklist:\nWork through these items two to three days before installation begins.
