Bathroom Furniture Assembly Instructions
Product Identification
All units can be easily identified from the labels on the packaging. These
labels include a description and product batch numbers. In the unlikely event
of any missing items, these numbers should be quoted when contacting your
supplier.
Please inspect all products carefully before installation.
The guarantee does not cover any subsequent installation costs incurred if
faults which would have been evident at the time of delivery are discovered
after installation.
Installation Guide and Assembly Manual
It is recommended that this guide should be read before any installation of
units begins. Always unpack units carefully and check the contents before
discarding the packaging as small items may still be in the packaging. To
protect units from scratches only lay them on a clean flat surface.
Electrical
Carrying out work in a bathroom that requires any addition or alteration to
existing circuits could be notifiable to your local building control
department to ensure it meets the correct safety standards. Generally, any
work carried out to the circuit within a specific zone close to the bath or
shower unit is considered notifiable. A straightforward way of meeting the
requirements is to use a contractor who is registered with a Competent Person
Scheme such as NICEIC or ELECSA. They can self-certify the work and notify the
local building control department on your behalf.
Sanitaryware
Basins
Any unit edges around wash basins must be sealed with a waterproof agent or
sealer.
Basins should be levelled on a bead of silicon onto the base unit if possible
before the final water and waste connections are made.
W/C Units
You will need to make cut-outs for pipes and cistern controls as directed by
the Manufacturer’s instructions or templates, remembering to seal any raw
edges. The cistern will require fixing to the cross rail. (These fixings are
not supplied)
Please note: These units are designed for back-to-wall pans as well as
suspended “wall hung” pans when used with a suitable suspension frame.
Guidelines for Care and Maintenance
To maintain the appearance and prolong the life of your new bathroom products
we recommend the following,
Furniture
Wipe spills up immediately with a clean soft damp cloth as excessive amounts
of spillage or condensation can cause deterioration of the woodwork. We
recommend that furniture be cleaned with a soft damp cloth and warm soapy
water. Avoid using cleaners or polishes that contain abrasives, solvents, acid
or ammonia.
Mirrors
Wipe off excessive moisture or condensation, clean with a soft cloth. Avoid
using cleaners that contain abrasives, solvents, acid or ammonia.
Ceramic Sanitaryware
Clean with a soft damp cloth and warm soapy water; rinse with clean water and
polish with a soft cloth. Avoid using cleaners that contain abrasives,
solvents, acid or ammonia.
Gel-coated Cast Mineral Washbasins
Gel-cast basins are designed and guaranteed to be used with hot water up to a
maximum temperature of 65ºC, this temperature must not be exceeded.
Clean with a soft damp cloth, water and soap or very mild detergent, rinse and
polish with a soft cloth. Avoid using cleaners that contain abrasives,
solvents, acid or ammonia. Do not use caustic soda or bleaches. For a good
shine use a fine polish around twice a year and then finish with a wax e.g.
car wax. Care instructions are included with the washbasin.
Brassware
Clean with a damp cloth, water and soap, rinse clean and polish with a cloth.
Avoid using cleaners that contain abrasives, solvents, acid or ammonia.
Installation
Note: All cabinets should be fastened to the wall before fixing the
basin, after alignment we recommend additional wall fixings are made, then the
final installation of the basin can be carried out.
Note: Consider where the pipes are located before beginning the
installation.
To begin, place the Basin Unit into the desired installation position in the
room.
Mark a centre line on the wall.
See Diagram 1.
Note: We recommend an installation height of 820mm. (Height of the unit
plus 180mm plinth, this is also to match the height of the WC Unit.
Draw a horizontal line 700mm from the floor, this is the height the hanging
brackets will be fitted at, so the unit has a finished height of 820mm. For
other installation heights, adjust accordingly.
See Diagram 2.
Next mark the position of the outer edges of the Units = X, working out from
the centre line.
See Diagram 3.
For all units mark out the position of the wall plates (supplied as pairs)
using the dimensions provided above.
Once marked, drill the fixing positions. Depending on the wall medium, it may
be necessary to plug the drilled holes. See ‘Important Note’ below.
Next screw and secure the wall plates to the wall using suitable screws. See
‘Important Note’ below.
See Diagram 4.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Wall fixings (i.e. screws/wall plugs etc.) are not supplied as these are
crucially dependent upon the type of wall and surface the surround is going to
be fixed too. The installer is therefore responsible for ensuring that
suitable fittings are used according to the particular model to be installed
as well as individual fitting situations and environments. All mechanical
fixings, for holding the product in position, must be secured to a solid wall
or structure.
Hanging the Unit
Note: If floor standing the unit (I.e. using a plinth) you will be
required to fit the legs to the cabinet prior to hanging. Please see the
separate Plinth & Leg Instruction for more detail.
Hang the units, making sure the hanging brackets on the rear of the units,
engage with the wall plates on the wall.
See Diagram 5.
Hanging Bracket Adjustment
Adjust the units so they sit level, using a Pozi screw driver. (1)
Finally fix the units in position by tightening screws, using a Pozi screw
driver. (2)
See Diagram 6.
Hanging the Doors
Tip: Lay the doors on a clean flat surface that will not damage or scratch the
product.
Firstly screw the hinge plate into unit side, using the predrilled 5mm holes
as indicated in Diagram 7.
Hanging the Doors Continued…..
Locate the hinge arm into predrilled 35mm hole on back of door and secure with
2No.6×5/8” countersunk screws provided.
See Diagram 8.

Adjustments
Door Front adjustment
Set the distance between the back face of the door and the edge of the unit
side panel.
Tip: Leave an approx. 2mm gap to help avoid binding.
To fix the hinge arm to the hinge plate, tighten screws (1) securely.
See Diagram 11.
Door Lateral overlay adjustment
Adjust screws (2) to adjust the edge of the door so it is runs parallel with
the outside face of the unit side panel.
Note: The edge of the door should be set back approx. 1.5mm from the edge
of the unit.
Note: For the protection of the damper, it only allows a lateral
adjustment. (left to right)
See Diagram 12.
Door Vertical adjustment
The door can be vertically adjusted by turning the plate screws up and down.
(3)
The door can be vertically adjusted by loosing the screws (3) on all of the
hinge plates on the door and carefully moving the door up or down as required.
Once in position re-tighten all the screws (3) to secure in place.
See Diagram 13.

through the holes in the fittings and into the pre-drilled holes on the top
panel.
