Wall Mounted Cabinets
1. The following information is provided
as a guide, and represents
minimum requirements only.
Knoll does not accept responsibility
for the attachment of any Knoll
product to a Customer's Site wall.
Site wall specification and construction
is the responsibility of the Customer
and its structural engineer/architect.
Knoll is not responsible for the cost of
preparing existing walls, or the cost
of additional materials for new wall,
sufficient to support Knoll products.
Failure to properly attach Knoll products
to adequate wall structures can lead to
property damage and/or personal injury
2. It is the responsibility of the Customer and
their structural engineer/architect to verify that
the permanent built structural walls (studs,
blocks, solid masonry, etc) on which the Knoll
products are intended to be mounted, are
designed to support the product weight, PLUS
3 lbs per linear inch for each useable shelf
NOTE: The cabinet top is to be
considered as a shelf to determine the
total load that the wall must support.
3. It is the responsibility of the Customer and
their structural engineer/architect to specify the
fasteners and method for attaching the frames
to the supporting wall, and to confirm that the
installers have adhered to these specifications.
For all local building standards and codes,
and additional requirements (including, but not
limited to, seismic conditions) the Customer
should always consult local code agencies.
4. Drywall should NOT be considered
a structural material for the purpose
of mounting Knoll products.
Drywall should be applied to a supporting
structure per the drywall manufacturer's
specification, and should be used only under
loads permitted by those specifications.
5. All blocking must be attached to studs
using approved carpentry practices
with the appropriate size fasteners.
6. You should consult your own structural
engineers and/or architects and must not rely
solely on the information provided herein.
