Setup and Installation
This section outlines the general steps for assembling and mounting your HOOBRO Wall Mounted Wine Racks. Refer to the detailed instruction sheet included in your package for specific diagrams and hardware identification.
Tools Required (Not Included):
- Pencil
- Measuring Tape
- Level
- Drill
- Hammer (for wall anchors)

Installation Steps:
- Unpack and Identify Parts: Carefully unpack all components and compare them with the parts list in your included instruction manual. Ensure no parts are missing or damaged.
- Assemble the Rack Units: Follow the step-by-step diagrams in your manual to attach the metal frame components to the engineered wood shelf. Ensure all screws are securely tightened.
- Choose Mounting Location: Select a suitable wall location, considering height, accessibility, and proximity to fire sources. Ensure the wall material (e.g., concrete, drywall) is appropriate for wall mounting.
- Mark Drill Points: Hold the assembled rack against the wall at the desired height. Use a level to ensure it is perfectly horizontal. Mark the positions for the mounting holes with a pencil. Repeat for the second rack if installing both.
- Drill Holes: Using a drill bit appropriate for your wall type and the provided expansion screws, drill holes at the marked positions.
- Insert Wall Anchors: Insert the correct expansion screws (for concrete walls or hollow walls) into the drilled holes. Tap gently with a hammer if necessary until flush with the wall surface.
- Mount the Racks: Align the mounting holes on the back of the wine rack with the installed wall anchors. Insert and tighten the screws to secure the rack firmly to the wall. Do not overtighten.
- Verify Stability: Gently test the stability of the mounted racks to ensure they are securely attached before placing any items on them.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Shelf is not level after installation. | Inaccurate marking or drilling during installation. | Remove the rack, re-measure and re-mark drill points using a level. Ensure holes are drilled precisely. |
| Rack feels unstable or wobbly. | Screws are not fully tightened; incorrect wall anchors used; wall material is too weak; overloaded rack. | Ensure all assembly and mounting screws are securely tightened. Verify that the correct wall anchors were used for your specific wall type. Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity. If the wall is too weak, consider a different mounting location or reinforcement. |
| Difficulty assembling components. | Parts misaligned; incorrect hardware used; unclear instructions. | Refer to the detailed instruction manual provided with the product. Ensure all parts are correctly oriented and the correct hardware is used for each step. Do not force components together. |
