Please note

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

We supply the screws required to assemble the wardrobe tower. Installation screws are not supplied because the appropriate fixings depend on your wall construction.

  1. Insert the dowels

    Push the plastic and wooden dowels into the designated holes at the top of both side panels.

    Install the wooden dowels in the first hole closest to the top edge of each panel.

  2. Fit the first drawer runner

    Position the first drawer runner on the drilled side panel, leaving five visible holes below the runner.

    Secure the runner using two Euro screws.

    The lowest visible hole is used for the bottom fixed shelf stud. The remaining four holes provide enough space for the drawer above the bottom fixed shelf.

    Note: This position places the drawers as close to the bottom of the tower as possible. If your design has an open shelf below the drawers, allow for this before fitting the first runner.

  3. Fit the remaining drawer runners

    Position the next drawer runner above the first runner, leaving seven visible holes between the runners.

    Secure each runner using two Euro screws. Repeat this process for the required number of drawers in your tower.

  4. Fit the fixed shelf studs

    Fit the studs for the bottom and top fixed shelves.

    Position the bottom fixed shelf below the bottom drawer, leaving four visible holes between the bottom runner and the bottom shelf studs.

    Position the top fixed shelf above the top drawer, leaving two visible holes between the top runner and the top shelf studs.

  5. Fit the shelves and support panel

    Slide the fixed shelves onto the studs and tighten the cams with a screwdriver.

    Position the back support panel onto the dowels at the top of the tower, then tighten its cam.

    Note: Make sure the cam on the back support panel faces the back of the tower so it won’t be visible after installation.

  6. Fit the second side panel

    Position the second drilled side panel onto the fixed shelves and back support panel.

    Once aligned, tighten the cams to secure the panel.

    Check: Make sure the second side panel has matching fixed shelf studs and drawer runners before fitting it to the tower.

  7. Secure the tower to the wall

    Ask another person to help stand the wardrobe tower upright and move it into position.

    Check that the tower is correctly positioned, then secure it to the wall using appropriate fixings.

    Safety: Secure the tower to the wall before inserting the drawers. Wall fixings are not supplied because the correct fixing method depends on your wall construction.

  8. Insert the drawers

    Line up the wheels on the drawer sides with the wheels on the runners.

    Lift the front of the drawer slightly and guide it onto the runners, then slide it fully into position.

    If your drawers haven’t been assembled yet, follow the standard drawer assembly guide .
