Tips to help your installation go smoothly:
pre-mark stud locations on your wall prior to installing the rails
take your time installing the rails as these are critical and not adjustable once installed
use a laser to project lines and assist with leveling
use clamps to hold things securely while fastening components together
double-check appliance openings in both the front and back
establish layout from a fixed point such as centerline of faucet/sink
take care with the bottom cabinet legs as they can be damaged with excessive loading and force

Helpful info for Ikea kitchen cabinets:
use the planner/design tools on the Ikea website to layout your cabinets and get a price quote
cabinets are universal and can be configured for virtually any space
quick turnaround time for materials compared to a custom build
Ikea also sells countertops which can be helpful if you don't want to shop around at separate stores
end panels can be chosen to match the finish of the doors and cabinets
