Step-by-Step Guide

1. Assemble Side Panels: Identify panels C and D. Panel D has a strip on the bottom. Slide panel C into the groove of panel D. Secure with four screws in the pre-drilled holes. Repeat this process for panels A and B to create two L-shaped side assemblies.
2. Connect Side Assemblies: Bring the two L-shaped assemblies together. The top and bottom lips of each assembly should slide into each other, forming the basic frame of the cabinet.
3. Attach Top Panel: Place the top panel (E) onto the assembled frame. Secure it with four screws into the designated holes. It may be helpful to have assistance holding the back panels together during this step.
4. Attach Bottom Support: Lay the cabinet on its face. Insert the bottom support piece (H) into the base of the cabinet. Secure it with screws from the inside.
5. Install Back Panels: Secure the back panels (F) to the rear of the cabinet using the provided screws.
6. Insert Shelf Brackets: Locate the small, white, horseshoe-shaped shelf brackets. Insert these into the desired indentation marks along the inner sides of the cabinet walls. You can customize the shelf height.
7. Place Shelves: Lay the metal shelves onto the installed shelf brackets. Ensure they are level and securely seated.
8. Attach Hinges: Attach the hinges to the designated slots on the inside of the cabinet frame. Use two screws per hinge. There are four hinges in total.
9. Attach Doors: Align the doors with the hinges. To ensure proper alignment, close the door and then insert the top screw into the hinge. Then, insert the bottom screw. This method helps the door align correctly. Tighten all screws.
10. Install Door Panels (if applicable): If your model includes glass or frosted panels, carefully insert them into the door frames. Small plastic cones are provided to secure these panels in place.
11. Install Door Knobs: Attach the gold door knobs. Each knob requires one screw, inserted from the inside of the door and tightened until secure.
