Setup and Installation

Carefully unpack all components and verify against the parts list provided in your product packaging. Ensure all hardware is present before beginning assembly.

Tools Required:

Assembly Steps:

1. Follow the detailed assembly instructions included with your product hardware.

Wall Mounting Instructions:

Proper wall mounting is crucial for the stability and safety of your floating desk. It is recommended that two people perform the installation.

1. Choose Location: Select a suitable wall type, such as a concrete wall or brick wall, that can securely support the desk's weight (42 lbs) plus its maximum load capacity (44 lbs). Avoid mounting on drywall without locating studs or using appropriate heavy-duty anchors (not included).
2. Determine Height: Decide on the desired floating height for the desk. Use a level and measuring tape to mark the precise positions for the mounting hardware.
3. Install Brackets: Drill pilot holes according to the marked positions and securely attach the provided hanging kits/brackets to the wall using appropriate screws and anchors.
4. Mount Desk: Carefully lift the assembled desk and align it with the installed wall brackets. Secure the desk to the brackets as per the specific instructions provided in your hardware kit.
5. Verify Stability: Gently test the desk's stability before placing any items on it. Ensure all connections are firm and the desk is level.
