ABOUT REVERSING THE DOOR
IMPORTANT NOTES:
• Read the instructions all the way through before
starting.
• Handle parts carefully to avoid scratching paint.
• Set screws down by their related parts to avoid
using them in the wrong places.
• Provide a non-scratch work surface for the door.
• Normal completion time to reverse the door
swing is 30–60 minutes.
IMPORTANT:
Once you begin, do not move the cabinet until door
swing reversal is completed. These instructions are
for changing the hinges from the right side to the left
side - if you ever want to switch them back to the
right side, follow these same instructions and reverse
all references to the left and right.
Tools needed:

Open the door approximately 130 degrees. With a
putty knife, remove the 4 plastic caps located along

hole on the left side.
