Step 3. Cabinet Installation

INSTALL HUTCH OR LINEN CROWN MOLDING (if necessary)

Crown molding,sold separately,can be installed on the Hutch or Linen cabinet. The length of crown molding pieces will need to be cut 

from the full length piece. You will need to miter the pieces to fit the Hutch or Linen. Please see Figures 3 and 4 on how to install the crown 

molding to the cabinet. If your Hutch or Linen will be installed with a side against a wall it is not necessary to attach molding to the side 

against the wall. Cut to fit your wall (Figure 5).

2-PIECE LINEN ASSEMBLY 

The 15” Linen,18” Linen with Drawers and 18” Linen with Doors 

are 2-piece units that require assembly prior to installation. Place 

the upper linen unit on top of the lower linen unit. The upper unit 

has six attachment brackets in place at the bottom, interior of the 

unit (Figure 6).

If you purchased a linen with drawers, you need to remove the 

drawers to have access to the attachment brackets on the upper unit. 

Reach through the back or front of the bottom unit to remove one 

screw on each attachment bracket so the bracket hangs down ver-

tically (Figure 7). Align the upper and lower units, first making sure 

the front of the linens (face frame) line up, then the sides. (The over-

all width of one unit may be slightly larger than the other unit. This is  

normal and does not 

compromise the function-

ality or structural integrity 

of the units.) Once the 

top and bottom units are 

aligned, secure the two 

together by screwing the 

front two brackets to the 

face frame of the lower 

unit first. Then repeat 

 

process for each side 

panel. Attaching the two 

front attachment brackets 

first and then the brack-

ets on each side last will  

create proper alignments.
