Leg Leveler Lifting Capacity
Question
Forum Responses
From contributor D: Blum does make a model that can be adjusted from inside the cabinet. It requires a 10mm hole bored through the cabinet base, then a plastic cover to hide it. I wouldn't try to raise any cabinet by using a screwdriver in the leveler, the screw slot just allows a fast way to adjust them from the topside. From the original questioner: To the original questioner: are you saying that Blum claims that you can adjust these from the inside, but that I shouldn't try? From contributor L: I have been using these levelers on a few jobs the last couple years, and yes I have been able to adjust with a screwdriver from inside. You can’t turn the leg easily if there is a lot of weight on it, but if you aren’t leaning on the cabinet, you should be able to turn the leg to adjust. It’s a lot better than trying to get shims under a cabinet that is going into an alcove, in my opinion. From contributor D: You can adjust them from the inside, just don't have too much weight on them. I think four of them are designed to carry over 800 lbs of load. Myself, I certainly wouldn't want to stick a screwdriver in a plastic slot and try to force up 200+ lbs. It's far easier to just reach under the cabinet with your hand and do the final adjusting. Use the screwdriver on the inside just to get it about level.
