Cabinet Installation

Would like to install cabinets but according to the schematics the wall has no studs to mount. Is it possible to mount the cabinets to the roof??? This has the magnum truss roof system which is 50 percent stronger.

Are you saying the width of the cabinet, is not wide enough to hit any studs? There are studs in the walls, either metal or wood depending on the RV.

We wanted to install the cabinet over the window. According to the schematics there is nothing behind the wall above the window. My husband ran a studfinder above the window area and could not find anything either. A local camper dealership (not ours) wouldn't do the work because of fear of ruining something.

On top close to the ceiling you always find material (aluminum or wood) to screw in.
