3. Install Drawer Slides: Attach the metal slide rails to the cabinet's interior side panels according to the instructions. Ensure they are level and aligned.
4. Assemble Drawers: Construct the three drawers by attaching the front, side, and back panels to the drawer bottoms. Install the remaining metal slide rails onto the drawer sides. Attach the wooden handles to the drawer fronts.
5. Insert Drawers: Carefully slide the assembled drawers into their respective compartments, ensuring smooth operation.
6. Attach Doors: Install hinges to the door panels and then attach the doors to the cabinet frame. Adjust hinges as needed for proper door alignment. Attach wooden handles to the door fronts.
7. Install Adjustable Shelf: Place the adjustable shelf into the desired position within the lower cabinet section. The shelf has 3 height adjustable options.
8. Attach Supporting Legs: Securely attach the four supporting legs to the bottom of the cabinet. Ensure the non-slip foot pads are in place.
