panel
must
weigh
no
more
than
16
lbs
(7.3 kg)
and
must
be
made
to
specific
dimensions.
It
is
recommended
that
a
cabinetmaker
cut
the

of
the
precise
dimensions
needed.

for
a
44"
(19.1
mm)
thick
wood
panel.
If
a
thinner
wood
panel,
or
materials
other
than
wood
are
used,
it
is
the
consumer's
responsibility
to
obtain
the
proper
length
screws
and
adjust
the
pilot
holes
accordingly.
IMPORTANT:
Use
a
moisture-resistant
sealer
on
both
sides
and
all
edges
of
the

to
avoid
damage
from
humidity.
