I want to put the cabinets on a stud wall covered with drywall.
What do i do with say a 15" wall cabinet,because the cabinet will only
cover 1 stud.
What do i do in that case ( don't i need to support a cabinet on more than
1 stud ?


Use more screws in the one stud you have available that will hold the load
and then add a couple of mollies to the drywall that will keep the cabinet
against the wall and not start it rocking on a high point and add some
strength vertically as well. If it's only a 15 wide cabinet chances are it
won't be loaded with China?
