REQUIRED WALL OPENING
Ideally the MIRROR/MEDICINE CABINET can be installed between two wall studs on 16" centers. 2x4 reinforcement on either side are
recommended. The required opening in the wall is 14-3/8" in width by 22" from top to bottom. If wall studs are not in desired location
framing the rough opening will be required. See Illustrations below for rough opening and suggested framing.
Before installing the medicine cabinet with mirror the dry wall and any finished wall should be completed.
Determine the height and location and draw center lines to layout the wall opening.

INSTALL MIRROR/MEDICINE CABINET
M968408D
Install MIRROR/MEDICINE CABINET into finished opening in wall. Check for level and that cabinet frame fits
flush against finished wall. Shim as required to make level. (Figure A)
Drill two 1/8" dia. pilot holes into top and bottom of cabinet. Secure cabinet to framing with wood screws. (Figure B)
!
INSTALL MOUNTING PLATES
To use TEMPLATES (A & B), to locate the center of each MOUNTING PLATE (1), cut the template out cutting on the dotted lines.
Starting at lower left corner of cabinet frame, locate the template as illustrated. Tape into place and mark the three centers of the
MOUNTING PLATE (1). Use TEMPLATE (A) for corners 1 & 3 and TEMPLATE (B) for corners 2 & 4 marking the MOUNTING PLATE (1)
locations and mounting holes. Check with a level that the center to center measurements are level.
To use DIMENSIONS, to locate the center of each MOUNTING PLATE (1) start at the lower left corner of cabinet frame. Measure as
indicated to locate the center of each MOUNTING PLATE (1). Mark the centers for the left side MOUNTING PLATE (1) and use the same
measurements to locate the centers of the right side. Check with a level that the center to center measurements are level.
For best installation results it is recommended to secure MOUNTING PLATES (1) to reinforcements studs. No Anchors are needed. Drill
small pilot holes for SCREWS (3).
For installations on drywall without reinforcement studs, use DRYWALL ANCHORS (2) and SCREWS (3) for securing
MOUNTING PLATE (1) to wall. Place #2 Phillips screwdriver or cordless screwdriver into recess of anchor. Press into drywall while turning
the anchor clockwise until it is seated flush with the wall. Place MOUNTING PLATE (1) over DRYWALL ANCHOR (2) and insert SCREWS (3)
with #2 Phillips screwdriver. See FIGURE B below. Secure MOUNTING PLATE (1) to wall with SCREWS (3).
NOTE; For best installation results use:
• No Anchors, Screws (3) directly secured to
reinforcement studs
• TILE ANCHORS (4) for tile or plaster walls
• DRYWALL ANCHORS (2) for dry wall
