One-man operation advantage

One of the standout features of the Viking Arm® is the ability to transform kitchen cabinet installation tasks into a single-person operation. This capability is particularly beneficial in home improvement scenarios where extra help may not be readily available.

Effortless Lifting Power

The Viking Arm® offers unmatched lifting capabilities, facilitating the management of heavy cabinets alone. Its robust mechanism ensures that cabinets are elevated securely, allowing you to focus on achieving the precise alignment necessary for professional installation.

Tip: Always ensure the base pad is correctly placed to prevent damage to your kitchen floors as you lift.

Millimeter Precision

Accuracy is crucial when installing kitchen cabinets, and the Viking Arm® excels in providing millimetre precision. Its design allows you to make minute adjustments easily, giving you complete control over the positioning of your cabinets.

Using the magnetic spirit level included in the kit, you can ensure that every cabinet is level and perfectly aligned, enhancing the functionality and appearance of your kitchen.

Surface protection with Non-Slip Pads

Kitchen surfaces can be fragile or easily scratched, which makes the inclusion of the non-slip pads in the Viking Arm® Cabinet Installation System invaluable. The base pad acts as a protective barrier, preventing damage to your flooring or table plate while providing a stable setup.

Similarly, the lifting pad ensures that the cabinets themselves are protected from scratches or scuffs during installation, allowing you to work confidently and efficiently.
