Best Screws for Mounting Kitchen Cabinets on Block Wall: Thickness & Length Guide

Question

Hello, I need to hang kitchen cabinets on a block wall. I have a mounting strip for this but I don`t know what screws to choose - thickness/length? Additionally, are washers needed for this? The cabinets themselves are heavy, and in addition to their contents, they must be solidly mounted.

Chemical anchor, metal anchor for hollow bricks, or dowels for hollow bricks.

What kind of hole do you have in the strip? What diameter? The screw must pass through this hole. I think that if you buy a 10x100 quick assembly, it will be enough. You drive the screw into the shirt with a hammer.

If it was a reinforced concrete wall, you could try this solution, but you need to start the discussion about what type of block it is and then choose the appropriate dowels. Regards

Do you have any idea what you`re writing about? The quick assembly pin only holds together with the flange, and I don`t think there are 10mm holes in the strip. The screw itself DOES NOT HOLD in such a dowel!

A wall made of ordinary foam blocks. I can`t find anywhere what screws to use to secure it. What do you think about 6 mm x 80 mm screws? Will they be enough?

Use at least 10×120. Several pins for one rail, if the original rail has too few holes, you need to drill more holes. Regards

Place the pins on the rail so that they are close to the cabinet handles.

In the case of aerated concrete, its strength is important. Dia 8 screws will be more than enough. The dowel dedicated to aerated concrete is important. A cabinet full of porcelain will hang easily on a strip with 2 screws. If there are 2-4 cabinets, you can add 1-2 more screws as a precaution.

If it is incomplete silicate, then either glued anchors with a mesh sleeve or much cheaper Duopower anchors from Fischer. If you choose Fischer pins, you must use 8x65 or 10x80, because these are the longest. From the point of view of the load-bearing capacity of the screw, fi6 is completely sufficient, but due to the structure and material of the wall, its maximum length is important. The rail on which you hang the cabinets probably has holes of fi10, so if you decide to use dowels with screws of fi10, drill the rail to fi11 or 12 to have some clearance for the inaccuracy of making the holes in the wall.
Here you have it Link go to the catalog where you can see and read everything.

Here on the electrode, even a simple hanging of kitchen cabinets creates an academic discussion. Eh...

I assure you that selling cash registers is not a particularly complicated procedure.

DiZMar · Answer

Do I claim that it is complicated and write essays on this (cash registers) topic? After several dozen years of working in the fiscal industry, you don`t have to explain to me that it (sales and service of cash registers) is actually simple. You confirm my observation that a simple topic can be turned into a theoretically very complicated discussion (e.g. your arguments post #11 25 Jul 2021 22:42) and practice is hammer and screwdriver.
