Mounting wall cabinets, problem with tile backsplash

Hello,

I have been searching for a while but have not found an answer to my following question. It concerns my following kitchen, which I planned and ordered (without electrical appliances):

On the side where the wall cabinets are, I have a tile splashback. On the left and right, it is about 1.60 m high. In the middle, it is 2.00 m high and ends at the top with the range hood (Miele DA6096). The middle area is slightly wider than the distance between the wall cabinets. The wall cabinets all rest with their bottom edge on the tiles. The inner wall cabinets also rest with one rear edge against the tile splashback.

So I have to mount the wall cabinets at the top with a distance from the plastered wall. Is this possible with Ikea standard means? Does the hanging rail have an adjustment range for this? Or do I have to mount the rail with a distance from the wall?

What would be the most practical solution to achieve the wall distance of the rail? Has anyone gained experience with this?

Thank you very much in advance!

Hello, you need to put something under the rail. The cabinets have a spacer at the bottom. It might be easiest to omit it and wedge something between the cabinet and the tile backsplash. Since the walls are usually not plastered completely flat, a fixed spacer doesn’t fit anyway.

Without spacers it will be pretty difficult. IKEA expert has provided a good and detailed description of it. If I were you, I would follow it, because then there will be no more problems.

Thank you. Then I will continuously get strips of suitable chipboard as a full-surface base. What are the spacers underneath supposed to be good for?

The corpus rests against the wall rail, so it has a distance from the wall equal to the thickness of the rail. At the bottom, the same distance must be maintained (if the wall is straight).
