Installing Kitchen Cabinet Crown Molding

- In this video I show you how I installed my kitchen cabinet crown molding. This video might help you if you want to install crown on your cabinets. This video may REALLY help you if you want to install that crown from the top of your cabinets tight to the ceiling with no gap and your ceilings aren't perfect. Sometimes with old houses it may seem impossible to not have a gap above the crown but NOTHING is impossible! The key to success is preparation and patience!

I always learn something new everytime I watch your videos! Today I learned that I would love to pay someone to install crown if I ever want it!
Haha
Dude, you are our generations, Bob Villa. I used to love watching this old house.
Proof positive a kitchen doesn't have to be huge to be convenient and functional - well thought out plans make all the difference. And the crown makes it 'Top Shelf'. Great content, as always. Thank you.
That helped, especially with the fridge surround situation. Thanks
I like your attitude about being "patient."! Great job as usual, and I appreciate the sense of humor too!👍
Kitchen's looking great, it must be nice having someone like you who can do it all.
Oooh Weee! I'm glad there's no test to take after this lesson. 🤓🤓I have a miter saw that I've never used. Interested in learning. Thanks for link. Crown moulding looks great. 🤗🤗
Wow, the finished moulding is amazing!
Looks good. I've been impressed by your trim and crown work in your various videos. You've got a good eye for it and touch with it. Great work!
It looks mahvelous. Truly.
You do very nice work, Matt. 🤩
Great Job!🤩
With MDF base moulding, I've used an angle grinder with an 80 grit flap wheel as a coping tool. It works very well, a little tough to control on the fine tuning but great for the bulkier stuff.
Jigsaw works better, you have more control
It's cool to watch your work. Cool thanks
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it! 😃
Great video
Looking great. I did this in my kitchen a few years ago with crown supplied my the cabinet company. Stained cherry wood. It was crazy expensive before the Wuhan flu expensive! I think it was like $12.00 a foot. I ended learning to do the longest runs first since I was screwing up so much I could then use the screwed up piece in a shorter location. I did not enjoy the process.
Use Collins miter clamps with glue on outside corners.
Pro tip: when you figure out how the crown sits on the table saw, pencil mark a line then hot glue a scrap piece a wood down on the line to make a crown stop. This will ensure that when you set it down on the saw the spring angle is exactly the same every time.
AMAZING
I always love watching somone improve their home and problem solve. Great job as always.
How tall are your ceilings 8 or 9 feet? Thanks
Would CA glue be a wise choice?
Brilliant.
What size cabinet do you have?
So, let me get this straight… when you cut crown, you drop it? Is that why they call it “coping”?
🤣
Looks good but don't cross cut.
Keep your hands on the correct sides then... you'll keep them.
Just paint the nails? I am trying to cover mine! Please help
Can anyone tell me where to purchase kitchen cabinet 2" crown molding from 1998 installation. I cannot find it at Lowes or Home Depot and apparently styles have changed and all that's carried at these stores now is generally 3" or more. I'm looking for style very similar to that used here in this video.
Hey! I purchased my cabinets from Choice Cabinets... Maybe contact them to see if you can buy a similar one to what you have? Here is the website, hope it helps! www.choicecabinet.com/contact-choice/
@@TheFixerHomeRepair Thanks!
Great job one trick I learned is when installing the crown after nailing up the first piece I then take caulking and run a very small bead along the edge that will be nailed next that way if there are any small cracks or the seams are not perfectly mitered the caulking will fill that small void or crack. I use a squared off old credit card to run across the the two edges and then wipe with a damp rag. I also use the trick when installing trim around doors. A lot of DIYers will try to caulk a seam that has a small crack and it will not look as professional as this trick
So satisfying to watch this all come together. Your description of what and why you are doing things a certain way and your attention to detail is top notch. I enjoy watching every one of your videos. Thanks for posting!
Safety issue. At minute 12:39. You cross your arms while cutting with the saw. NEVER EVER do that!!! Either use your left hand to drop the saw, while holding the piece to the fence with your right. Or hold the piece to the left of the saw blade with your left hand and drop saw with right. Again, never ever cross your arms in front of any power tool.
Good call, Lance.
It’s the little things that make everything look so good. Nice job, love your videos!
Are you doing 2" straight nails into ceiling and like 1" pin nails into the cabinets?
Another great video. I have been racking my brain for the past few months trying to figure out who you resemble. You look similar to Donald Sutherland when he was younger!
😮😀 I guess I can see that.
I almost missed the first step to cutting crown is dropping it on the ground. Glad I watched to the end
🤣
And here I thought it was because I didn't have coping skills..
Stupid doctors
But really.. Good stuff as always. Coming along nicely
I've always heard, "Cut your crown molding upside down and backward". Nobody ever explained to me to think of the bottom of your saw table as the ceiling!! Now, that makes more sense! Thanks for the tips!!
I’ve always heard doing crown molding is a bit@#! It looks like I heard right! You did a beautiful job, of course!
Can't wait to watch the rest after I'm off work an home man
Crown molding...when are we going to do it? Right now!!! Love it. It looks spectacular. Thanks for sharing with us. 💓
Great video. I Can't wait to see it when the kitchen is finished
Looks nice
Thanks!
Can't wait for the finished product on the kitchen as a whole. This is turning out so awesome! Thank you for posting!
And thank YOU for watching, Susan!!
Looks amazing! May I know the size of the cabinets, and will this work with a 36” h cabinets with 8ft ceiling?
Without leaving gaps in between cabinets and ceiling
Hello! These cabinets are 36in and my ceilings are just under 8ft. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching!
There is a saying in my country: "Measure twice, cut once".
Use the Diablo blades, they make quick work. Looks like one of my projects, good work!! Details man details
I saw this video about 2 or 3 weeks ago. I was waiting for the next project, but I didn't. Hopefully, I'm not missing the rest of your project. Thank you and Goodluck 👍☺️
Nice video bro ,thank you.
A crowning achievement! Excellent!
I’ve hung mine, need to put something up. Gonna try to think of a modern type of trim to go above them to match the house style.
Thank you so much for this video. Your explanation was on point and I feel confident trying to install crown molding to my cabinets. I don't have a fancy saw like that so wondering if a skill saw would work? Thanks again!
I’ve always heard that you’re supposed to keep crown molding on cabinets 9 inches below the ceiling if you don’t, you’re supposed to bulkhead the cabinets before you do crown. I’ve installed it this way as well and I don’t understand what the problem with it is. Could someone that knows if this is true, explain why it’s true? The only thing I can think of is if the ceiling sags it will push on the cabinets as well.
one tip.. when you cut the crown on the miter saw use a guide line or a stop block .. all crown have a reveal... so if you put it the same way on every cut you going to have much better match later...
What do you do about adding crown molding when you have a popcorn ceiling if you want to flush mount to the ceiling?
Love, love, love it - well done. The light top cabinets over the dark bottom ones look really sharp. 😎
Thank you sir
best every video
The Fixer 👍
Crown sucks to do.....i just cant cope with it.... lol see? see what i did there?
I actually lol’d at this 😁
@@TheFixerHomeRepair LOL ;)
SHAME ON YOU!!! You make this look soooo easy. Hehe. GREAT job!!!!!
Great Job!!!
Beautiful work! It's amazing how you got all of the cuts perfect!
When this video first started I thought, "Oh, Geez! He's not going to add additional blocking to bump the molding out to the depth of the doors! Wrong!" I almost turned it off but decided to see the molding mullet you were going to have at the end. Thankfully, mid-vid, you attached the extra blocking on the front of the original blocking. Kudos! Job well done!
How did you transitioned the crown color from cabinets to hallway? It was a different white right?
Love the videos…Great Job….Thank you!!!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge! It looks great!
Thanks bro👌✌️👍looks Nice your Job 👌👌👌👌✌️
What to do when my ceiling slopes up by almost an inch, within a 10 inch span?
I have a better understanding of how crown needs to be installed. Thanks.
Dude....great job. Exactly my situation and I was wondering how am I going to get this done right.....well.....now I can! Thank you for sharing!!
Really hope it helps! Thanks for checking it out!
What an awesome video. I love crown molding. It just makes an entire room.
Looks great. How did you attach the blocking to the top of the cabinet?
Cutting across your arm like that in a chop saw is very dangerous.
You need a crown stop on your saw that way you will have the same angle for all your cuts
Looks great I did crown molding in my hole condo my step dad did it for me
Nice man, as someone who does kitchens i enjoy seeing others approach and preferences. Im huge on adding a spacer to the tall cabs with extended face frames but it came out good here.
I LOVE the way you did the blocking! I was going to use a piece of straight grain to extend the carcasses, but your method is so much easier and I can use any kind of wood. Thanks!
Happy to help! Thanks for watching!
This is the video iv been looking around... Thank you 👍
I'd have done that 'fridge corner with a flush cut hand saw.
Great job so far. Can’t wait for the finished product.
How do u fix the seams when u but to peace’s tougher
Looks so good man. At 32:30 I love the tip of gluing and nailing the outside corner first then fussing with the inside corner. Well done!
Don't like how the 45°'s don't match up
You could use the crown settings on your miter box so you can make cuts with the trim laying flat in the miter box instead of holding it at an angle. Makes for more precise cuts.
That would be ideal for perfect corners but this way is easier to adjust when (they almost always are) off.
Looking forward to seeing more of your #bloopers
😊😂
Just finished watching all of your old videos, up pops this one. This may be bad of me; but after watching you remove the front steps, I can't wait to see you remove the back steps. Loved watching all your videos.
Stay tuned! 😉

Why is 9 inches too close for recessed lights?
Awesome
Best Crown Molding video I’ve seen
Thank you
I appreciate it, thanks!
Talk about having patience.... .....you gotta have patience to watch this video.............Lol
Just joking around.
Excellent tutorial and a
job.well done.
It looks beautiful.
Wow! Just wow! Crown looks amazing. Love how you added the profile strip to add another detail to the cabinets. Also like how you transitioned the fridge cabinet to the hall and how that strip balanced the crown in the hall. A major improvement!
Thanks, Ann! I am happy with how it turned out!
Thank you. Great job!
That beard is one horse and buggy away from being amish
😮😁
Looking great!
Thank you!
Nice job ...Very very very Good!!!!
I like watching your angles and cuts.
So impressive!!
Phenomenal job…👏
Great video. Much appreciated. I’m assisting my carpenter doing our new kitchen. We have similar cabinets, although not white. And this has given me some excellent solutions to how we were going to do the crown. And we have an odd size ceiling height, so we will not be connecting to the ceiling which may make things easier for us. But I appreciate your detailed explanations.
Why not continue the crown above the window between the cabinets?
I did. 😁. I show it in my latest video. The time lapse of the entire kitchen remodel. I waited to do it because I wasn’t sure at the time how I wanted to finish it. Thanks for watching!
