- Mark the screw holes on the wall through the bracket. Drill pilot holes into the wall stud(s).
- Secure the bracket to the wall stud(s) with appropriate screws (not always included; check your hardware).
- Ensure the frame cannot be pulled away from the wall.
CAUTION! If you cannot secure the furniture to a wall, do not use it. The wall attachment device is designed for drywall/plaster walls with wood studs.
Using with TROFAST Boxes
This frame is designed for use with IKEA TROFAST storage boxes (sold separately).
- Box Compatibility: Compatible with most TROFAST box sizes (e.g., 44x30 cm, 44x60 cm).
- Installing Boxes: Simply slide the box into the frame from the front, resting it on the shelf support rails.
- Adjusting Shelves: To change box height, remove all boxes, lift and remove the shelf support rails, and reinsert them into a different set of slots on the side panels.
- Weight Distribution: Place heavier items in bottom boxes. Do not overload boxes beyond the frame's per-shelf weight limit.
- Child Safety: For toy storage, ensure boxes are not overfilled, making them too heavy for a child to pull out.

Clean with a damp cloth wrung out in a mild soap solution. Wipe dry immediately.
DO NOT:
- Use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or solvents.
- Soak or allow water to stand on the surface.
- Place near direct heat sources or in damp areas.
Inspection: Periodically check the tightness of all screws and the security of the wall attachment.
Troubleshooting
