What methods are used to anchor storage cabinets to walls?

Storage cabinets are anchored to walls using: (1) Direct wall anchor — a bracket or strap at the top rear of the cabinet screwed into wall studs or a solid mounting rail; (2) L-bracket — an L-shaped metal bracket connecting the cabinet's top panel to the wall; (3) Anti-tip cable — a steel cable with clips attached to the cabinet top frame and looped around a wall-anchor bolt; (4) Furniture straps — ratcheting or Velcro straps connecting the top of the cabinet to a structural wall element. The minimum recommended anchor is one 5/16" or larger screw into a wall stud (not just drywall) per every 24"–36" of cabinet width. For seismic zones, consult your local code for specific anchor requirements. OfficeFurniture2go.com's storage cabinets include anchor provisions and instructions — call 1-800-460-0858.
