COMPONENT PACKAGE CONTENTS

Plan Your Closet Layout

When planning your installation, measure the dimensions of your installation location. For specific designs refer to separate Modular Closet System Configuration Guide.

TIP: Shelf height can be adjusted per your personal needs.

NOTE: All vertical measurements are taken from the floor.

Installation

Install Hang Track

• Use a stud finder to locate and mark your studs if installing on drywall.
• Place the longest hang track (C) flush against the wall, the bottom of the track should be 84 in. off the ground. The thicker side should be on top, closest to the ceiling.

TIP: When creating larger closet layouts that include multiple hang tracks, install this kit hang track to the far left of your planned closet design. Additional shorter length hang tracks will be installed in continuous sequence to the right of this kit hang track.

• Make sure the track is level and mark each screw hole on the wall. Ensure at least one hole aligns with a stud.
• Use correct hardware to secure the hang track and tighten (see “Choose Your Hardware” in the Pre-installation section).
• Repeat steps above for adding remaining hang tracks (J). Be sure to install the next shorter hang tracks (J) level and flush with previous installed hang track (C).

_ WARNING: _Before cutting, drilling, or hammering into any wall, verify the location of electrical, plumbing, and gas lines. Cutting may cause serious injury.

Install Upper Vertical Rails

• Attach the upper vertical rail (A) to the hang track (C) slots as the diagram shows (see Fig. 1).
• Slide the first vertical rail (A) to the left edge of the hang track (C) , so make sure it is flush with the end of the hang track (C) (see Fig. 2).
• Use a level to ensure upper vertical rail (A) assembly is vertically straight (plumb) and secure it using screw holes in vertical rail with appropriate hardware (see Fig. 3).
• Use provided spacer (O) to line up the next upper vertical rail (A) (see Fig. 4). It is CRITICAL to install vertical rails at the correct spacing using spacer (P) for the system to work.
• Repeat the above process to install remaining upper vertical rails.

Stop: If creating a larger kit (which ships in several boxes) install all hang tracks and vertical rails from boxes labeled ‘EXTENSION’ BEFORE installing any brackets, shelves or decorative covers in following steps.

WARNING: Before cutting, drilling, or hammering into any wall, verify the location of electrical, plumbing, and gas lines. Cutting may cause serious injury.
