Assembly Instruction
You only have you only have a few more things left
to do! But they’re important, so be sure to take your
time. Remember to install child-safe catches on the
doors and drawers, hob guards and any other devises
you’ve chosen to make the kitchen safer for your
children. Your new kitchen will then be a place for
the whole family to enjoy!

Install drawers, shelves & lighting
The cabinets have predrilled holes for quick and easy
installation of shelving, drawers and interior fittings.
This also makes it simple to make adjustments or
add interior fittings later on.
If you need to attach cover panels to the cabinet
frames, put them on before you install interior
fittings, since they’re screwed on from the inside.
Hang the poster on the wall
so you’ll get your hands free!

The finishing touches makes all the difference
1. Install cover panels
Temporarily secure the cover
panel into place using a G-clamp.
Drill pilot holes through the
cabinet frame from the inside of
the cabinets, being careful not
to drill through the cover panel.
Screw the cover panel into place.
Remember that the cover panels
must be shortened 2½” if you are
not going to install decor strips
underneath the wall cabinets
- saw the top edge so that the
sawn surface is not visible from
below.
2. Install lighting
Now it is time to install lighting
in your glass-door cabinets. Use
a qualified electrician for profes-
sional results.
3. Put the shelves in place
Insert four supports per shelf
into the predrilled holes in-
side each cabinet, then rest the
shelves on top of them. Think
about what you need to store,
and place the shelves to make
best use of the space. You can
move the supports and the
shelves anytime you wish.
4. Attach drawer fronts
Using the hardware provided,
mount each drawer front to the
drawer box through the
predrilled,prealigned holes.
5. Adjust drawer fronts
Use a screwdriver to adjust the
drawer fronts and assure they’re
perfectly aligned. Attach knobs
or handles to the drawer fronts
after you’ve installed the draw-
ers in the cabinet frames. This
makes it easier to be sure they
are all even, and at the same
level.
You’ve completed Step 6!
And shelves, lighting and draw-
ers are in place.
Good to know: The drawers
glide smoothly on sturdy self-
closing runners for years of
service. To set the drawer in the
open position, slide it out until
it stops, then tilt slightly up so
it clears the stop point on the
runner. To close the drawer tilt
it up again and roll it shut.
1. Saw toekicks
Carefully measure and mark
toekicks so that they cover the
open area below your base cabi-
nets. Cut the toekicks to the cor-
rect length using a fine-toothed
handsaw.
2. Finish the edges
Cover the cut edge of the toe-
kicks with the enclosed edging
strip. Press it on with a warm
iron, then cut it to the right
length.
3. Clip toekick into place
Follow the assembly instruction
for attaching the toekick clips.
At corners set one clip facing up
and the other down – this allows
them both to fit on the same leg.
Snap the toekick into place.
4. Attach decor strips
Measure, cut and fit the decor
strips beneath the wall cabinets.
Instructions for installation and
placement are included with the
decor strips. Remember to attach
the sealing strips.
5. Install mouldings/cornices
Follow the assembly instruction
included with the moulding/cor-
nice. Measure carefully so that
cornices will be the right length.
For best results, use a mitre box
saw to cut the corners of each
moulding/cornice at a 45° angle.
6. Attach the hinge plate
Screw the door hinge base plate
into the second and third pre-
drilled holes at the top/bottom.
For ULRIKSDAL door, you must
screw the hinge base plate into
the third and fourth predrilled
holes.)
9. Attach door handles
A template makes it easy to place
handles in the same position on
all doors. Be sure to check on
which side the door opens before
you mark and drill the holes.
Hold a block of wood behind the
