CLOSET SYSTEM INSTALLATION CONCEPTS FOR SUSPENDED UNITS
We recommend you read through this manual entirely before you
install your system. Keep it nearby as a reference as you do your
installation.
We have devised what we think is a clear method and chronology
for installing your closets. Our suspended systems are designed to
hang from the wall.
Systems are made of vertical elements (panels) and horizontal
elements (shelves). As a general rule when hanging panels we
suggest that you start your installation on either end of the closet
working from left to right or right to left whichever you prefer.
With your product packaging you will find a box of parts and pieces
(hardware kit) that are used for the assembly of your system. Each
item is illustrated and labeled here in this manual with a description
of how the part is used.
Once the rail is properly secured to the wall, you should hang the
panels. Next, install the fixed shelves starting with the top shelves
and then the bottom. Next, secure any center shelves that need to
be installed. Lastly, put adjustable shelves, drawers, and hanging
rods in place. Plumb and level and secure to wall before adjustable
shelves and drawers.
Fixed shelves are fixed with two different types of anchors. Use
a push-in single dowel to fix an end shelf or a shelf that will not
continue on to the next section at the same height.
Use a
through anchor dowel
between sections where shelves
continue through at the same height.
Note:
When locking a shelf that uses a through anchor, lock the
narrow end of the through anchor first and then the wide end
(shoulder).
