Setup and Assembly

The HOMEFORT 5-Tier Wire Shelving Unit is designed for quick and easy assembly without the need for additional tools. Follow these steps:

1. Attach Plastic Feet: Screw the four plastic feet into the bottom of the lower pole sections. These feet protect your floors from scratches.
2. Assemble Lower Poles: Connect the lower pole sections by screwing them together. Ensure they are tightly secured.
3. Install Plastic Clips: Determine the desired height for your first shelf. Snap two plastic clips onto each pole at the same height, ensuring the upward arrow mark on the clips points upwards.
4. Place First Shelf: Slide the first wire shelf down over the poles until it rests securely on the plastic clips. Gently press down on the mesh until it fits firmly into the buckle of the clips. Ensure the upper diameter of the shelf is small and the lower diameter is large, with the baffle facing upward to prevent items from sliding off.
5. Repeat for Remaining Shelves: Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the remaining four shelves, installing plastic clips at your desired heights and then placing the shelves. Note that the shelf height cannot be adjusted once the clips are in place.
6. Connect Upper Poles: Once all lower shelves are in place, connect the upper pole sections to the lower ones, then continue installing the remaining shelves.
7. Final Check: After all shelves are installed, gently push down on each shelf to ensure it is fully seated and stable.
