Push back TV , get hammer drill out of truck and lag the top of the cabinet into the brick wall of the building. Whatever screws I put into drywall/hat channel ripped out.... Luckily my install partner was a "we might need this " guy and had tapcons and hammer drill loaded
Sounds like fun times. Worst thing about it is everything is finished and something is going to get damaged and cost you lots of $$$ unlike an unfinished building during the rough construction phase. You still do that type of stuff for a living?
