Setup and Installation
The ironing cabinet comes pre-assembled. Installation primarily involves securely mounting the unit to a wall. It is recommended to have two people for installation due to the weight and size of the unit.
Tools Required:
- Drill
- Level
- Measuring Tape
- Pencil
- Screwdriver
Installation Steps:
- Choose Location: Select a suitable wall location, preferably near an electrical outlet, ensuring sufficient clearance for the ironing board to extend fully. Consider the product dimensions (13.38"L x 6.88"W x 37"H) and the extended board length (approximately 41.88" from the wall).
- Mark Mounting Points: Hold the cabinet against the wall at the desired height. Use a level to ensure it is straight. Mark the positions for the mounting screws through the pre-drilled holes on the back of the cabinet.
- Drill Pilot Holes: Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. Use appropriate drill bits and wall anchors for your wall material (e.g., drywall, wood studs, concrete).
- Secure Cabinet: Align the cabinet with the drilled holes and secure it to the wall using the provided mounting hardware. Ensure all screws are tightened firmly to prevent wobbling.
- Verify Stability: Once mounted, gently pull on the cabinet to ensure it is securely fastened to the wall and does not move.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Ironing board feels unstable. | Not fully extended or support leg not locked. | Ensure the ironing board is pulled out completely and the support leg is securely locked into its upright position. Check the safety latch. |
| Cabinet wobbles on the wall. | Mounting screws are loose or improper installation. | Tighten all mounting screws. If wobbling persists, re-evaluate the wall anchors and ensure they are appropriate for your wall type. Consult a professional if unsure. |
| Iron does not fit in storage. | Iron dimensions exceed shelf capacity. | The storage is designed for irons up to 4.3"W x 11.33"H. If your iron is larger, it may need to be stored elsewhere. |
