A template positioning device for use in preparing a cabinet for mounting of an under-cabinet microwave includes a panel, which is substantially rigid, rectangular, and planar. The panel overlays and is removably attached to a template that is used in mounting an under-cabinet microwave, with a first edge of the panel being aligned with a rear edge of the template. The panel has a plurality of cutouts positioned therein, with respective cutouts allowing access to associated mounting indicators of the template. The panel facilitates proper positioning of the template in abutment to an underside of a cabinet, using one hand, with the first edge of the panel against a wall to which the cabinet is mounted. The device allows a user to use their other hand to drill holes corresponding to respective mounting indicators.
