Assembly Instructions

Lay out all parts on a soft surface to avoid scratches.

Attach vertical support arms to the horizontal rail using the provided screws and Allen key.
Ensure arms are perpendicular to the rail and tightened securely.
Attach wall mounting brackets to the ends of the horizontal rail.
Check that all connections are firm and the structure is stable before mounting.

Tip: Do not fully tighten screws until all parts are aligned.

Wall Mounting

Mounting requires a drill, level, pencil, and stud finder (if applicable).

Locate wall studs or use appropriate wall anchors for your wall type.
Hold assembled rail against wall at desired height. Use level to ensure it is horizontal.
Mark screw holes for brackets with a pencil.
Drill pilot holes at marked points, insert wall plugs (if needed).
Secure brackets to wall with provided screws. Tighten firmly.
Hang assembled rail onto brackets. Secure with locking screws if included.

CAUTION! Double-check level before drilling. Ensure brackets are mounted into solid material.
