A guide to wall mounting and fixings
Warning
In order to prevent overturning this product must be used with the wall
attachment device provided.
Wall fixing screws are not included, since different wall materials require
different types of screws / fixings.
Please ensure you use the correct screws / fixings for your type of walls and
seek professional advice if you are not sure.
Installation shall be carried out exactly according to the instructions provided — otherwise a safety risk can occur if incorrectly installed. Failure of the product due to incorrect fixings is the responsibility of the installer.
Important: When drilling into the walls always check that there are no hidden wires or pipes etc.
Types of walls
You can use one of the following types of wall plug if your walls are made of
brick, breezeblock, concrete, stone or wood.
1. General Purpose wall plug
Generally aerated blocks should not be used to support heavy loads, use a
specialist fitting in this case. For light loads, general – purpose wall plugs
can be used.
2. Plasterboard wall plug
For use when attaching light loads on to plasterboard partitions.
3. Cavity Fixing wall plug
For use with plasterboard partitions or hollow wooden doors.
4. Cavity Fixing — Heavy Duty wall plug
For use when fitting or supporting heavy loads such as shelving, wall cabinets
and coat racks.
5. Hammer Fixing wall plug
For use with walls stuck with plasterboard. The hammer fixing allows it to be
fixed to the wall rather than the plasterboard. Always check the fixing is
secure to the retaining wall.
6. Shield Anchor wall plug — Heavy loads
For use with heavier loads such as TV and Hi-Fi speakers and satellite dishes
etc.
Care and maintenance
Safety: Periodically check all fittings and wall fixings to ensure they
have not come loose and retighten as necessary.

Care guide
Care and maintenance
Wood furniture
Wood displays different grain patterns depending on which way they are cut —
for example, the ‘medullary ray’ which can appear on oak furniture is a mark
of good quality timber — these are just characteristics of the natural beauty
of the wood. Some furniture is also deliberately aged and rustic.
Wood veneers also allow a distinctive pattern to be created on some surfaces,
such as tabletops and drawer fronts by the way slivers are arranged.
All timber and veneer surfaces will change colour and mellow over time. New
furniture will initially vary in shade from items that have been previously
purchased.
How to care for your wood furniture
Furniture with a hard lacquer, wax polish or painted surface should be dusted
with a dry cloth.
Waxed furniture will need to be given a coat of beeswax a couple of times a
year to help maintain its lustre.
Spray polishes are best avoided as they contain silicones which may spoil the
furniture’s surface when building up over time.
Make sure all surfaces are protected from heat and liquids by mats and
coasters. Wipe up spills immediately and ensure that a mat or pad is placed
under paper if you are writing.
Our furniture will endure most temperatures in the home, but it is best to
avoid placing furniture next to heat sources such as radiators or fires. Be
particularly careful with solid wood as the lack of humidity caused by home
heating can cause damage such as warping.
Safety instructions
Never drag furniture when moving it, always lift it.
Periodically check all fixings to ensure none have come loose and retighten
when necessary.
Please take care when handling or moving the furniture as careless handling
may cause damage or injury.
Furniture can be dangerous if incorrectly installed. Assembly should be
carried out by a competent person. No liability will be accepted for damage or
injury caused by incorrectly installed or assembled furniture.
Retain these instructions for future reference.
