[QUOTE="tistan, post: 16714613, member: 26495"] As long as you hit one stud with a screw at the top and bottom, you will be fine in the weight department. Like another person, said use toggle bolts to hold it tight to the dry wall where you don't have a stud. Cabinets are made to support their weight. The plywood on the back isn't going to move. I always use #10x 2 1/2 deck screws to install upper cabinets because they don't snap as easily as other construction screws. Just from 2 deck screws you will get 2-300 lbs of sheer strength. Then toggle usually have 50-100 lbs of strength. If you get 2 screws and 2 toggles, your cabinet should hold 3-500 lbs. [/QUOTE]
