How To Wall Mount A Microwave

Wall-mounting a microwave is a great way to save counter space and improve the look of your kitchen. It's also a relatively easy project that can be completed in a few hours. Here are the steps on how to wall mount a microwave:

1. Choose the right location

The first step is to choose the right location for your microwave. You'll want to choose a location that is easy to reach and has enough clearance around it. You'll also need to make sure that there is an electrical outlet nearby.

2. Gather your tools and materials

Once you've chosen the location for your microwave, you'll need to gather your tools and materials. You'll need the following:

* A microwave mounting bracket * A drill * A screwdriver * A level * A tape measure * A pencil * Screws * Anchors (if needed)

3. Install the mounting bracket

The first step is to install the mounting bracket. The mounting bracket will come with instructions on how to install it. Be sure to follow the instructions carefully.

4. Hang the microwave on the mounting bracket

Once the mounting bracket is installed, you can hang the microwave on it. To do this, simply lift the microwave and place it on the bracket. The microwave should fit snugly on the bracket.

5. Secure the microwave to the wall

Once the microwave is hanging on the bracket, you need to secure it to the wall. To do this, use the screws that came with the mounting bracket. Drive the screws into the wall until they are snug.

6. Level the microwave

Once the microwave is secured to the wall, you need to level it. To do this, use the level to check the microwave from side to side and front to back. If the microwave is not level, adjust the screws until it is.

7. Plug in the microwave

Once the microwave is level, you can plug it in. To do this, simply plug the microwave cord into the electrical outlet.

8. Test the microwave

Once the microwave is plugged in, you can test it to make sure it is working properly. To do this, simply place a cup of water in the microwave and heat it for a few minutes. The water should heat up quickly and evenly.
