Disassemble and Empty Cabinets

What happens here

Begin by removing all items from inside the kitchen cabinets. Then, use an impact driver or screwdriver to remove all cabinet doors from their hinges and detach all drawers from their runners. Store all removed hardware (hinges, screws, handles) in labeled bags to ensure they can be easily reinstalled later. Carefully move the removed doors and drawers to a separate, well-ventilated work area, such as a basement or garage, where they can be worked on without interfering with the main kitchen space.

Goal: Prepare cabinets for refinishing by removing contents, doors, and drawers.
