Default wall cabinet coming off


wrote in message
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.

Please let me know if you have further questions, I will try my best
to explain.


It's a rather simple fix to put it back "like it was," but chances are it
won't last, as the design and construction of the wall cabinet itself is
faulty/cheap ... and that's being charitable.

You will most definitely need someone locally who does kitchen
cabinets/cabinet installation to come in and spell out your options.

Sorry to say that, while they may be able to fix the visible problem, the
underlying cheapness will never go away. If you are the homeowner, you will
want to replace it, and any like it.
