SECURE CUSTOM PANEL TO
METAL MOUNTING PANEL
• Lay the custom panel, appearance side down, on a
clean surface.
• Remove all tape and packing material from the metal
panel.
• Place the flat side of the metal panel onto the back
side of the custom panel, with the mounting flanges
facing up.
• Align the lamp hole in the panel with the mounting
panel.
• Confirm squareness and correct position of the metal
panel to the custom panel.
FOR PANELS LESS THAN
3/4” THICK
• Separate the custom panel and metal panel.
• Apply a few horizontal beads of adhesive to the metal
panel. Avoid adhesive within 1” of lamp hole area and
outer edges.
FOR 3/4” (OR GREATER)
THICK PANELS
• Separate the custom panel and metal panel.
• Use the metal panel as a template. Position the metal
panel over the back side of the custom panel and drill
pilot holes. Drill pilot holes sized to match screws being
used (screws not provided).
NOTE: Select screw length carefully to avoid penetration
of the finished side.
INSTALL LAMP JEWEL
• Turn the assembly appearance side up.
• Use plastic to wood adhesive to secure the lamp jewel
to the front of the wood panel. On the side with the
bulge, (see illustration) apply a small bead of adhesive
around the outside edge. Place the jewel into the
drilled hole.
INSTALL ASSEMBLED PANEL
TO THE DRAWER
• Determine which holes in the metal panel line up with
the holes in the exposed drawer front and marked the
screw hole locations onto the custom panel.
• Drill 1/8” deep holes into the custom panel for
clearance to the #6 screws. The #6 screws will extend
into the custom panel slightly.
• Using the #6 screws supplied in the bag, install the
custom panel assembly to the exposed drawer front
with seven screws.
• The original #8 screws are not needed.

the metal panel, the custom panel and into the custom
or original handle.
