ANCHORING REQUIREMENTS

 

Wall anchors are only to be used when unit is parallel to the wall. Floor anchoring must 
be used for perpendicular layouts. If choosing the wall anchoring method, the floor 
anchor plates can be removed from the unit. 

 

All 

frame units from three (3) tiers through six (6) tiers are 

required to be permanently 

anchored

 to the wall (see Wall Anchoring Method) or floor (see Floor Anchoring 

Method) regardless of configuration, usage, or if multiple units are ganged together.

 

WARNING: 

Tip Over Hazard. Do not 

install drawer modules above the third (3rd) 

tier. Installation of drawers above three (3) tiers can lead to instability and injury from 
unit tipping over.

 

Floor Anchoring Method

 

All frames will have at least four (4) anchor plates mounted to the floor glides on both 
end frame sections. 

90” 

and 

96” 

units 

must 

have six (6) floor anchor plates total. 

 

90” 

units have two (2) additional floor anchor plates on the interior sections. One (1) on 

each section that are mounted on the opposite sides from the other 

(Figure P)

. If both 

plates are on the same side. Uninstall one (1) plate and re

-

install it to the glide on the 

opposite side. 

96” 

units have two (2) additional floor anchor plates; both are mounted 

on the middle section 

(Figure Q)

See Model AI Sheet for reference 
on anchor plate.

 

Contact Customer Service if 
anchor plates are missing or 
damaged. 

Do not 

install frames 

with less than the required 
number of plates.

 

WARNING: 

 

Tip Over Hazard. Do not 

install 

shelves, modules, or tops onto the 
frame until it is leveled and 
permanently anchored. 

 

Installation before permanent anchoring can lead to instability and injury from unit 
tipping over.
