Kobalt 28-inch Garage Wall Cabinet (Review & Overview)

This is the Kobalt 28-inch wide Steel Wall-mounted Garage Cabinet from Lowes. Watch to see the cabinet put together and mounted on the wall. I share my personal thoughts about the construction of the cabinet and the price point.

Thanks for the tip on the doors. Thought mine were defective. Now they rock.

Great video series about Kobalt cabinets. Like the watchouts and ideas for hanging them. Thanks for sharing.

[@Ricks_Tech_Talk]

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for the demonstration. I hung four of these side by side tonight before watching this video and they are ever so slightly off in the vertical dimension. Have to go back and reposition the hang rails. Liked the tip about bending the doors slightly to get the magnets to engage better.

[@Ricks_Tech_Talk]

Thanks for watching. I'm still very happy with the quality of the cabinets, but I wish the price wasn't so high.

[@Trey1970]

@@Ricks_Tech_Talk Yeah, I paid $179. Still cheaper than the customs I was looking at.

[@jeffreyderbes]

Awesome

[@Ricks_Tech_Talk]

Thanks for watching

Loved the video. How did you mount them since studs are not 7 inch center there is no way to install as per the instructions? Are 2 mounting bolts going to be adequate to hold the cabinets on the wall if loaded with the maximum recommended weight of 150 lbs? Thanks so much for your video.

[@Ricks_Tech_Talk]

I only used 2 bolts per cabinet and that will work just fine. I'm still very happy with mine. Thanks for wathcing

Great video! Also, you sound just like Michael Keaton. Kinda look like him too lol.

[@Ricks_Tech_Talk]

Thank you so much, and thanks for watching it

How much does cabinet weigh? I’ve looked online and can’t get that info. The reason I ask is I’m thinking of installing this in a cargo trailer and would not want something extremely heavy. Thx!

[@Ricks_Tech_Talk]

I think the box said 42 lbs. If you call the store they could look on the box for you, it does say the weight of the unit and the packaging weight on it. Good luck and hope this helps

@@Ricks_Tech_Talk Thank you for info!

[@jefflock5267]

Did your cabinet not come with shelves?

[@Ricks_Tech_Talk]

Came with one. I don't consider the one on the bottom to be a shelf. But if you count that one, then I get 2 with it.

[@markvorgert9611]

Can you use one key for all the cabinets.

[@Ricks_Tech_Talk]

Good question, I'll check that out. I haven't locked them yet.

[@Ricks_Tech_Talk]

All my keys have a 001 on them, and they work on all 3 cabinets. But they might have different combinations on some cabinets. Maybe I just got lucky. Sorry, I wish I knew more about the locks.

[@Trey1970]

I have four cabinets and all keys work on all of them.

[@christopherbrautigam3562]

Way to skip the middle shelf installation that is key and a major issue.

[@Ricks_Tech_Talk]

I went back to watch the video and I didn't realize that part was left out, I have no clue how I missed that part. I will say the shelf had no problems going in, and it just slides down on the tabs. It takes about 3 secs to install them.
