Wall Mounting Guide

For secure wall mounting, follow these steps carefully.

  1. Locate Studs: Use a stud finder to locate solid wood studs or masonry in your wall. Mark their positions.
  2. Position Cabinet: Hold the assembled cabinet against the wall at the desired height. Use a level to ensure it is straight. Mark the screw hole positions on the wall through the mounting holes on the back of the cabinet.
  3. Drill Pilot Holes: At the marked positions, drill pilot holes into the wall studs. Use a drill bit slightly smaller than the wall plugs.
  4. Insert Wall Plugs: Tap the provided wall plugs into the pilot holes.
  5. Secure Cabinet: Lift the cabinet into position. Insert and tighten the mounting screws through the cabinet back and into the wall plugs. Ensure the cabinet is firmly attached and does not wobble.

WARNING! If you cannot mount into studs, you must use appropriate heavy-duty wall anchors suitable for the wall type and the cabinet's weight. Test stability before use.

Adjusting & Use

Adjusting Shelf Height: Remove shelf. Pull out the metal shelf supports and re-insert them into another set of pre-drilled holes. Replace shelf.

Door Adjustment: The concealed hinges allow 3-way adjustment:

Soft-Close Feature: The hinge has an integrated soft-close mechanism. No adjustment is needed.

Care & Maintenance

Clean with a damp cloth wrung out in a mild soap solution. Wipe dry immediately.

DO NOT: Use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemicals. Avoid excessive water.

Periodically check that all screws and wall mounts are tight.
