4. Insert Anchors (if necessary): If drilling into drywall or hollow walls, insert wall anchors into the pilot holes.
5. Mount Cabinet: Align the cabinet's mounting holes with the drilled holes/anchors. Insert screws through the cabinet's back and tighten them securely. Ensure the cabinet is level and firmly attached to the wall.
