Assembly Instructions

Assembly is designed to be straightforward and typically takes less than 30 minutes. An Allen key wrench is the only tool required and is included.

1. Unpack and Identify Parts: Carefully unpack all components. Lay them out and identify each part using the provided labels and the parts list in the manual.
2. Assemble Metal Frame: Connect the top and bottom metal frame pieces using the provided screws and Allen key wrench. Ensure all connections are secure.
3. Install Shelves and Dividers: Insert the wooden shelves and dividers into the designated slots within the metal frame. Note that vertical segments are generally the same, but top and bottom horizontal segments may differ (e.g., 2 holes instead of 4).
4. Attach Crossbars: Secure the metal X-frame crossbars to the backside of the bookshelf. It is recommended to attach the crossbeams to each other first before attaching them to the main frame for easier alignment. These crossbars enhance stability.
5. Install Adjustable Foot Pads: Screw the adjustable foot pads into the bottom of the metal frame. These pads help stabilize the bookshelf on uneven surfaces and protect your flooring.
6. Wall Mounting (Recommended): For added safety and stability, especially in homes with children or pets, use the provided wall mounting hardware to secure the top of the bookshelf to a wall.
