Step-by-step assembly

Step 1
Screw 8 cam bolts (130449) into the top and bottom panels.
Lay both panels on the rug, inner side up. 4 in each panel, turned in with the Phillips screwdriver.

Step 2
Push 12 dowels (101339) into the sides and stand them on the bottom.
3 dowels in each end of both side panels. The bolts and dowels go into the holes in their ends.

Step 3
Insert 4 cam locks (119252) and turn them to lock.
At the bottom of the side panels. Turn them clockwise with the flat-head screwdriver.

Step 4
Slide the back panel down into the grooves of the sides.
Push it all the way down to the bottom panel. Check which edge goes up — see the manual, step 4.

Step 5
Fit the top panel and lock it with 4 cam locks (119252).
Turn the locks clockwise.

Step 6
Turn the cabinet round. Press 8 connectors (10093081) into the back.
Click a cap (10093082) onto each one — 2 at every corner.

Step 7
Lay it on its front. Screw on the 3 leg plates (153760).
4 screws (100349) in each plate — 12 in total.

Step 8
Screw the 3 legs (153762) onto the plates.
Turn each leg on by hand, then screw a bolt (153807) into its end.

Step 9
Fit the 2 fittings (141413) at the top of the back.
Push their pins into the 2 holes near each top corner.

Step 10
Stand it up against the wall. Turn the feet to make it level.
The 3 legs have adjustable feet — check with a spirit level.

Step 11
Fix it to the wall through the 2 washers (126916).
Screws and plugs are not included — use ones suited to your wall. Then click on the 2 covers (133303).

Step 12
Press 8 stops (115339) into the front of the side panels.
2 at the top and 2 at the bottom of each side.

Step 13
Push 12 shelf supports (131372) into the sides.
4 for each shelf. To angle the shelves for shoes instead, see the info box before step 13.

Step 14
Lay the 3 shelves on the supports.
Lower each shelf so it sits on its supports.

Step 15 · manual step 15–16
Fit the centre bar (195759) and fix it with 4 screws (100349).
Slide its plates into place at the top and bottom, 2 screws at each end.

Step 16 · manual step 17
Push the 2 top tracks (151821) up into the groove under the top.
Check the track is the right way round — see the manual, step 17.

Step 17 · manual step 18–20
Press the 2 bottom tracks (190772) into the bottom groove.
Clip one end in, bend the track into place, then press it down all along.

Step 18 · manual step 21–22
Fit 4 bottom fittings (150521) to the doors with 8 pins (151955).
Doors face-down on the rug. 2 fittings per door, 2 pins in each.

Step 19 · manual step 23–24
Fit 4 top fittings (150522) with the other 8 pins (151955).
2 at the other end of each door.

Step 20 · manual step 25
Screw a handle (152478) onto each door.
2 screws (100349) per handle, at the edge of the door.

Step 21 · manual step 26–28
Hang the first door: bottom fittings into the track, then the top.
Set the bottom first (see the manual for the right groove), tilt the top in and push the lock up until it clicks.

Step 22 · manual step 29–31
Hang the second door the same way and lock it.
Push its top locks up until they click. Slide the doors to reach every lock.
Tips & safety
- Always fix the cabinet to the wall. Tip-over can cause serious or fatal crushing injuries. Wall screws and plugs are not included — if unsure what to use, seek professional advice.
- Doors not level? Turn the adjuster on the bottom fitting with the Allen key (100049) to raise or lower the door — see the info page after step 31.
