At what height should I install the METOD suspension rail?
The METOD wall rail should always be mounted so that the bottom edge of the rail is 6 cm below the top of the cabinet.
You can, for example, think: legs 8 cm + cabinet 80 cm - 6 cm = the height where the bottom edge of the suspension rail should be.
Keep in mind that it is always important to place the rail according to the highest point of the floor. If the rail is mounted at a lower point, there is a risk that the measurement between the base cabinet and the floor will be too low, which means that the 8 cm plinth will not fit under the cabinet.
