How to Surface Mount
Surface mounted cabinets use the “Z” Mounting Bars to
hold the cabinets. No holes are cut in the wall. Refer to
Figure C on page 3.
NOTE: When using an Electrical option for recess
mount cabinets, electric wire must be roughed-in
prior to installation (see “Wiring an Electrical Option” on page 6).
NOTE: Before installing surface mounted cabinets
with an Electrical option, run electrical wire for
cabinet through rough-in hole in wall. See “Wiring
an Electrical Option” on page 6.
1. Each cabinet is shipped with an aluminum “Z” Mounting Bar. Cut this bar approximately 1” (25.4 mm) shorter
than the overall width of your cabinet combination.
NOTE: It is strongly recommended that a support
similar to that used for a wall-mounted sink be
framed into the wall during construction as shown
in Figure D.
2. Locate and drill three 7/32” (5.6 mm) holes through the
indent line on the mounting bar into the wall. Be sure the
mounting bar is level (see Figure D). Use the #10 x 2”
(50.8 mm) SMS/Wood screws provided to attach the
mounting bar to the wall. If no furring strip has been
installed, use the supplied plastic anchors, making sure
that each cabinet is supported by at least 3 anchors.
See instructions below.
3. Three “Z” clips are supplied for the top of each cabinet.
NOTE: You can pre-drill 7/32” (5.6 mm) holes for
“Z” clips at the predetermined location. If there
is no support in the wall, use the supplied plastic
anchors.
Slide the three “Z” clips into the screw channel at
the top of the cabinet; be sure that the “Z” clips
lock into the grooves. Lift the cabinet and place the
cabinet onto the mounting bar.
NOTE: When using an Electrical option, fi rst
remove outlet shelf and pull rough-in wire from
wall through wire access hole in back of cabinet
as described in “Wiring an Electrical Option” on
page 6.
4. Using the #10 x 2” (50.8 mm) SMS/Wood screws
provided, attach the top of the cabinet to the wall
through the “Z” clips and into the wall as shown (see
Figures D and E).
5. Install shelves as shown in “Final Assembly” on
page 7.

on all four sides and at least 3 ¾” (95.2 mm).
Overall rough-in dimensions should be 18 1/2”
x 29 1/4” (469.9 mm x 742.9 mm).
NOTE: When using an Electrical option for
recess mount cabinets, electric wire must be
roughed-in prior to installation (see “Wiring an
Electrical Option” on page 6).
NOTE: When partially recessing the cabinets
(for example, installing the 6” (152.4 mm)
deep cabinet into a 4” (101.6 mm) deep opening), follow the instructions provided with the
MPSK40-D2 or D4 Side Kit.

Wiring an Electrical Option
DANGER:
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, shut
off power before wiring the cabinet.
CAUTION:
Grounding instructions for permanently connected
products: This product must be connected to a
grounded, metal permanent wiring system or an
equipment-grounding conductor must be run with
the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the product.
All wiring should be done by a qualifi ed
licensed electrician.
The Fairhaven cabinets can be installed with an
Electrical option.
IMPORTANT:
Power for an Electrical option should be
provided separately from the optional cabinet
lights so that when lights are turned off, the
Electrical option in the cabinet remains on.
NOTE:
Requires 120 VAC 20 Amp circuit.
WARNING:
An Electrical option cabinet must be wired to a
20 Amp GFI (Ground Fault Interrupter) circuit breaker when used in bathrooms and all other locations
required by the National Electric Code.

Door “Swing”
Check the swing of the door. The door hinges come with
a 110° black plastic hinge stop so they will not swing into
a light kit. If no light kit is installed, the stop is not necessary and the door can be allowed to swing 170°. If hinge
stops are required, snap the hinge clip over the elbow of
the hinge into the holes located on the hinge.
Cleaning and Care
The cabinet door and interior are constructed of mirrored
glass and aluminum. Use only a damp cloth to clean.
Ammonia or vinegar-based cleaners can damage
mirrors. A 50/50 solution of water and isopropyl alcohol is
recommended for cleaning the mirrors. A mild detergent
may be used on the surfaces.
When cleaning, spray the cloth, not the cabinet, mirror,
or surround surfaces.
Do not use abrasive cleansers on any part of the cabinet.
NOTE:
Do not store items in the cabinet area directly
behind the hinge as damage may occur to
cabinet or items.
