When the bases are not in my way I can reach to screw in the uppers without a ladder (7ft)or just a one-step stool (8ft). I can also stand under my uppers to clamp the face or eruo box and screw the sides together. Crown and scribing is faster without bases in the way. On many commericial jobs, there are attachment issues for the base cabinets, shot down or torque bolt down with inspections, so I attach my seperate bases and call for inpestion, While waiting I install my uppers, and have grown acustommed to doing them before the base cabinets. I have instructed delivery personel to spread my cabinets so I can install bases first. Once you used a french cleat you will never go back! I also install uppers first for many reasons.
