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.

Install drawer front brackets

Push the drawer brackets into the pre-drilled holes on the drawer front.

Tip: The side of the bracket that shows the screws and letter should be facing outwards.
Knock brackets in

Use a screwdriver and hammer to gently knock brackets fully into position.
Install drawer sides

Position metal drawer sides on top of the drawer front brackets then tighten screws to secure.

Note: The side should sit flush with the drawer front once tightened, you may need to loosen the screw initially to allow for the side to click into place.
Install drawer base

Line up the 4 holes on the drawer base with the mounting lugs on the metal sides then tap the base firmly into place.
Install drawer back

Slide the drawer back into place between the metal sides.
Secure back to sides

Install 4x 16mm screws through the holes on the back of the metal sides into the drawer back.

Note: There should be 2x 16mm screws on each side of the back.
Secure base to back

Install 1x 45mm screw through the pre-drilled hole on the bottom of the drawer base to fix to the drawer back.
