Default wall cabinet coming off

wrote:
Hi,

I will greatly appreciate if anyone can guide me in right direction on
this. Our kitchen wall cabinet is coming off of the wall from the top
side. Not only this, the outer frame is sliding out of the top and
shelves. The top and she;ves seem to sit (and run) in groves in the
inside of the outer frame. As you can see I am not good at explaining
it in words and woodworking terminologies, therefore here are the
pictures

I will hate to have it taken off and get it reinstalled. Rather, I
will prefer to prevent this situation from getting worse.


1. You should be able to pound the whole sheebang back into place.
2. Drive or screw anchors UP into the ceiling joists (may have to drill
first to avoid splintering). Go thru the frame if necessary. This will keep
the cabinet from rotating outward - which seems to be the result of the poor
installation process.
