Please note

The wardrobe shown in this guide is an example and your project may differ.

Whilst we supply all the screws needed for assembling your wardrobe towers, we don’t supply the screws needed for installation as these vary per project.

OPTIONAL STEP: For drawers with handles, using a drill and 5mm drill bit, drill through the pilot holes on the back of drawer fronts.

1
Assemble the drawer base

Place the drawer base panel between the two metal drawer sides. Make sure the drawer sides are facing the correct way, with the front fixing area at the open/front end of the drawer.

Secure the drawer base to the drawer sides using the 16mm screws.
- For 450mm depth drawers, you will have 4x 16mm screws for the base.
- For 600mm depth drawers, you will have 8x 16mm screws for the base.
Install drawer back

Slide the rear connectors and wooden back panel vertically into the recesses at the back of the drawer sides.

Once the back panel is sitting in place, secure it with 4x 16mm screws through the rear connector points.

Tip: If it's easier, you can screw the rear connectors to the back panel first, then slide it into place.
Install drawer front brackets

Place the drawer front face-down on a clean, flat surface. Insert the front connector brackets into the pre-drilled holes on the back of the drawer front.

Lock the brackets into place by turning the fixing screws 90 degrees.

Prepare drawer sides for installing the drawer front

Before attaching the drawer front, check that the front locking mechanism inside each drawer side is in the unlocked position. This allows the front connectors to slide into the drawer sides and click securely into place.
- Locate the front locking mechanism inside each drawer side.
- Use a screwdriver to unlock the mechanism if needed.
- Check both sides before fitting the drawer front.
Note: If the mechanism is locked, the drawer front will not clip on properly.
Clip the drawer front onto the drawer

Line up the front connectors with the openings at the front of the drawer sides. Push the drawer front onto the drawer box until both sides click into place.

Note: You should hear a click when the front is secured properly. If you are struggling with this step, you can lie the drawer front flat and try installing the rest of the drawer box from above.
