INSTALLATION STEPS
- Step 1
- Let’s get this thing fired up! Start by putting Cam Bolts (1) into the Top Panel (A), Right Side Panel (B), Left Side Panel (C), and Bottom Panel (F), in the holes indicated below.
- Secure the Anti-Tip Bracket (15) to the Top Panel (A) using the M4*12mm Screw (14).
- Step 2
- Grab your screwdriver for this step! Use the Cam Locks (2) and Wooden Dowels (3) to secure the Left Back Panel (D) to the Left Side Panel (C).
- See the following page for a quick guide on how to use cam locks!
- How to use cam locks
- Did you know? Cam locks are used to join two panels together, usually the edge of one to the flat side of another.
- First, your cam bolt (or cam pin) will need to be properly inserted into the flat side of the board.
- Important Note: Only tighten the cam bolt until it is secure. Do not over-tighten.
- Next, you will fit the proper hole on the edge of the associated joining panel over the cam bolt.
- Important Note: When installed properly, the head of the cam bolt will be visible through the larger hole on the side of the joining panel.
- Next, you will notice the cam lock has a “C” shaped back. Commonly, an arrow on the front of the cam lock points in the same direction as the open section on back. Using these as your cue, insert the cam lock into the large hole so the opening of the “C” fits over the head of the cam bolt.
- Using a screwdriver, you will turn the cam lock until it stops, usually between 130º or 180º. You will feel the panels pulling closer until they are secured.
- Important Note: Only turn the cam lock until the panels are fully engaged & feel secure. Turning too far may lead to hardware failure.
- First, your cam bolt (or cam pin) will need to be properly inserted into the flat side of the board.
- Still, having issues?
- If a cam lock seems to be spinning in place or is not “catching” or pulling the panels together as expected, first remove the cam lock & try again while making sure that everything is properly positioned & oriented.
- If you are still having issues getting things working as expected, first remove the cam lock then unscrew the cam bolt slightly (less than 1 complete turn) to see if that helps with the alignment of the cam lock & bolt.
- Step 3
- Don’t put your screwdriver away quite yet! Use the Cam Locks (2) and Wooden Dowels (3) to secure the Right Back Panel (E) to the Right Side Panel (B)
- Flip back to Page 7 if you need a refresher on how to use cam locks.
- Step 4
- Now secure the panels (B) and (E) from Step 3 to the Top Panel (A). Tighten to 75%!
- Step 5
- No, this isn’t Deja Vu! Now secure the (D) and (C) panels to the Top Panel (A).
- Tighten to 75%!
- Step 6
- Secure the Magnetic Catches (18) to the Top Front Stretcher (N) using the M315mm Screws. Then, secure the Top Front Stretcher (N) to the unit with the Cam Locks (2) and M435mm Screws (7).
- Step 7
- This is the last step with cam locks, we promise! Join the Bottom Panel (F) to the unit you’ve assembled so far using the Wooden Dowels (3) and Cam Locks (2).
- Step 8
- Get the Bottom Panel (F) secured using the Flat Washers (5) and Hex Button Head Bolts (8) – be sure to line them up correctly with the Barrel Nuts (9).
- Step 9
- You are halfway done! Join the Base Back Panel (I) to the Base Left Side Panel (J) together using a Flat Washer (5) Hex Button Head Bolt (4) and Wooden Dowels (3).
- Tighten to 75%!
- Step 10
- Attach the Base Right Side Panel (H) to the Base Back Panel (I) using a Flat Washer (5) and Hex Button Head Bolt (4) and Wooden Dowels (3).
- Tighten to 75%!
- Step 11
- You’re a pro at this by now! Attach the Base Front Panel (G) to Part (J) and (H) using a Flat Washer (5) Hex Button Head Bolt (4) and Wooden Dowels (3).
- Tighten to 75%!
- Step 12
- Use four Wooden Dowels (3) to join the assembled panel pieces to the unit from Step 8.
- Step 13
- Secure using the Flat Washers (5) and Hex Button Head Bolts (4).
- Once everything is lined up and partially secured, go ahead and re-tighten all previous connections to 100% tighten.
- Step 14
- Shut the front door – you’re only five steps away from being done. Speaking of doors – grab the Left (K) and Right (L) doors and secure the four Hinges (10) onto them. Secure the Door Catch Plate (16) to the tops of the doors, too!
- Step 15
- It’s all coming together! Secure the doors to the unit by the Hinges using the M4*14mm Screws (11).
- Is your cabinet door looking crooked or unevenly spaced?
- Then you’ve come to the right place. Follow the illustrations below to get your cabinet door aligned and ready for action.
- Step 16
- Place the Shelf Pins (12) at your desired shelf height and carefully slide the Shelf (M) to rest on top of the pins.
- Step 17
- Time for the finishing details!
- Is your cabinet door looking crooked or unevenly spaced?
- If you’re still having trouble lining everything up, your next step should be to try to adjust the feet slightly to square up the cabinet & doors. Follow the illustrations below:
- If the right door appears to be hanging low, you can adjust the adjustable leveler on the front right until the door is better aligned.
- If the left door appears to be hanging low, you can adjust the adjustable leveler on the front left until the door is better aligned.
- Step 18
- Safety first! Start by drilling a hole in the wall using a 1/4” drill bit and pushing a Wall Anchor (13) into the hole.
- Then, secure the storage unit to the wall by screwing in a M4*35mm Screw (7) through the Anti-Tip Bracket you installed back from Step 1 and into the Wall Anchor (13).
