Normal dishwasher instructions don’t always work if you’re installing the appliance beneath a marble counter top or a quartz counter top. See, typically, you just mount the dishwasher directly to the underside of the counter. Mounting is important, because it ensures that the appliance doesn’t tip during use.
So, our clients have told us that they begin installing the new dishwasher purchased to improve the kitchen so that it sells faster, then hit a snag. The snag? You can’t install the mounting hardware for the dishwasher directly into the quartz or marble counter! Once, someone managed to get plywood between the counter and the dishwasher, and drilled too far! It’s not worth risking the new marble or quartz counter.
The smartest way to mount the dishwasher is to get side-cabinet mounting clips for the dishwasher. The don’t usually come with the dishwasher, but the manufacturer will sell them. They make this job easier. Simply screw the clips to the side of the dishwasher behind the door. Once you get the dishwasher in place, secure it by simply screwing the top end of these clips to the inside walls of the cabinets following the directions!
