Fine tuning your new BDI Novia Home Theater Furniture
These steps are to be followed after you have unpackaged and completed the simple assembly instructions for your Novia
AV stand. Due to jostling in freight or perhaps an uneven floor, the doors and drawers on your Novia 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 Novia unit.
STEP 1 - Level your Novia unit (as shown on previous page)
The levelers which are located within the center cabinet area may be adjusted from inside the 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 of
hte cabinet appears to be sagging, raise the levelers on both of the center legs to compensate for this.
STEP 2 - Adjust Door Hinges (if needed)
The doors on your Novia 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 Novia door hinges with the use of the 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.
CORRECT!
Door is
sitting squarely and
evenly spaced on tops
and sides.
