Prepping for the base
Lay the unit on its back with the
drawer handle facing up. Insert a
mini-lock screw into each of the four
holes in the bottom frame and tighten
firmly with a Phillips screwdriver
until the screws touch the shoulder.
Attaching the base
Align the screws with the holes on the file base and push until fully inserted and
the base is attached.
Insert a mini-lock nut into each of the four holes. Make sure the arrow on each
mini-lock nut faces out and lines up with its mini-lock screw. When fully
inserted, use a screwdriver and turn each mini-lock nut clockwise approximately

Wooden file cabinets are possibly the only
kind worthy of being called furniture. These
stackables can grow as your files do.
Since each drawer is modular, you can order
just the number you need now and add more
later. You can also rearrange the ones you
have. For example, you can convert a four-
drawer cabinet into 2 two-drawer cabinets
simply by adding another base and top.
All cabinets have an anti-tip interlock
mechanism, allowing only one drawer to
open at a time. You can order a locking
drawer for a top position, and it will lock all the drawers beneath it. All drawers
have top-of-the-line Accuride glides and full-height wooden sides.
