Fine tuning your new BDI Avion Home Theater Furniture
These steps are to be followed after you have unpackaged and completed the simple assembly instructions for your Avion or
Avion Noir stand. Due to jostling in freight or perhaps an uneven floor, the doors and drawers on your Avion stand may not
appear to be in perfect alignment. Making a few minor adjustments can rectify this situation. Be aware that depending on
your situation, patience and a bit of trial and error are required. The high-quality European hinge hardware is infinitely
adjustable, but changing one element can cause the need for further adjustments. Through a little adjustment, you can
modify the orientation of the cabinet doors to make sure that they are sitting perfectly on your Avion unit.
STEP 1 - Level your Avion unit (if needed)
The levelers which are concealed within the legs can be adjusted from inside the
Avion cabinet to compensate for an uneven floor or to secure your cabinet so that it
does not roll. If you are having difficulty with misaligned doors, it is recommended
that you first retract all levelers and make sure that the unit is resting on it’s wheels.
If the center section on a three-legged unit appears to be sagging (center doors
hangs below the side doors) raise the levelers on the center leg to compensate for
this.
STEP 2 - Adjust Door Hinges (if needed)
The doors on your Avion stand should be perfectly spaced
and the doors should open and close freely without
rubbing against the door frame. Adjustments may be
made to the Avion door hinges with the use of a Phillips
head screwdriver. The hinge hardware has three
adjustment screws.
• By adjusting
Screw 1
, the door will move left and right
within the frame. For best results, make minor adjustments
to top and bottom hinge for best results.
• If adjusting Screw 1 has not achieved the desired result,
you can adjust
Screw 2
and the door will move up and
down within the frame (the top and bottom hinges need to
be adjusted the same amount).
• Adjusting
Screw 3
will cause the entire door to move
in and out, opening and closing the gap between the door
frame and cabinet. This screw rarely needs adjustment.
Step 2: Adjust Door Hinges.
INCORRECT!
Door is
out of alignment with
the rest of the unit.
Step 1: Level your Avion unit.
CORRECT!
Door is
sitting squarely and
evenly spaced on tops
and sides.
