The project is finishing off a basement with a media built-in, adding a bar area and wrapping 4 metal posts with decorative wood columns/trim work. I will be doing the work for a relative and they will be having a contractor seal, insulate, frame and drywall the space
1. What is the best way to install cabinets, bookcases, etc over the concrete? I was thinking of either a pressure treated base for all the cabs and bookcases or perhaps vapor barrier like used under laminate flooring.
2. The basment will be framed with metal studs. I have never tried to anchor a buit-in to metal studs. Do I need a special fastner or will the typical pan head/pocket screw style screw work well?
Thanks.
