FITTING WALL-HUNG BASE UNITS AND WALL UNITS
Wall hanging brackets need to be fixed to the carcass if supplied separately. The brackets
should be fixed the correct way up by knocking four prongs into the holes at the rear of
the carcass. Ensure that the securing pin is knocked into place, (see fig 1)
Draw a line along the length of the wall, level with where the units are to be fitted at the
desired height x (see fig 2).
Fix the brackets to the wall with appropriate plugs and screws for your wall type (not
supplied).
The units then simply hook onto the wall fixed brackets. Adjustment to gain a level surface
is as follows,
A - Adjust this to pull the cabinet into the wall
B - Adjust this to move the cabinets up or down (see fig 1);
Pull the cabinets tightly in against the wall using the adjustment screws on brackets. It is
important to ensure you have sufficient support for the weight of pottery and unit plus
contents when fitting wall hung units.
Once all units are in place they can be joined together by means of drilling and screwing
through adjacent side panels. We suggest making fixing less obvious by drilling behind
hinges and/or loose shelves, (see fig 3).
A securing screw should then be fitted through the back of the unit, through the fixed back
rail of the cabinet (where available) and into the wall, this will help to stabilise the unit,
(see fig 3).
Now that all the units are securely fixed, ensure that all the back panels that were removed
earlier are slid back into position before proceeding further, (see fig 3). Please note that
many back panels are double-sided and therefore have a different finish on either side.
Always check that you slide the panel in with the correct finish facing forwards.
For all units with a fixed back panel we advise that you drill a 10mm hole through the back
panel and then fit a stabilising screw though the back rail of the cabinet into the wall. The
10mm hole can be covered with one of the caps supplied or if positioned appropriately, by
the loose shelf of the unit, when applicable (see fig 4).
Handles for wall units are to be fitted by the installer on location according to the
customers requirements.
Units should be fitted by professional installers.
