with the top of the wall cabinet, set the Closet Rod Installation Rail ¾" down from the top edge of the wall cabinet
(as shown).

4. Pre-drill two holes thru the side of the adjacent cabinet to attach the Closet Rod installation Rail.
5. With the pre-drilled holes through the cabinet, attach the Closet Rod Installation Rail using (2)
