Assembly Instructions
Installing the Handles
Unscrew the bolts on the front of the drawer or the door using a Phillips screwdriver to remove the handle. On the back of the handle, attach it to the front of the door or drawer using two M5x12 flat head bolts. Repeat for all doors and drawers.
Installing the Feet
Carefully set the locker, 2-door base cabinet, or 1-drawer 2-door cabinet on its back. Attach the adjustable leveling feet to the locker or cabinet using sixteen M6x12 flat-head bolts with a Phillips screwdriver.

Installing the Shelves
Check the required location, then carefully place the shelf into the slot. Please make sure the shelf is stable.

Setup
1. Planning the position of the cabinets
A. Use a tape measure to record the height and width of each cabinet.
B. Determine the desired height off the ground (80mm-105mm) and make a horizontal mark.
C. Mark the width of each cabinet at the intended position to ensure wall cabinets align properly.
D. Measure up from the line marked in step B and make a horizontal mark at each cabinet's height to determine where the top of the cabinets will be.
E. Ensure cabinets are at a suitable height and wall cabinets are not out of reach.
[Diagram: Illustrates measuring and marking cabinet positions on a wall, showing height and width references relative to the floor.]
Note: Make sure there are two studs to mount the locker on, as it is easiest to start the installation with the locker. Due to wall stud spacing, some wall cabinets may only have one stud to attach to; this is acceptable if the wall cabinets are bolted together.
2. Hanging the lockers and wall cabinets on wall
Open the doors and align the top of the locker with the lines marked for the cabinet position. Securely attach the locker into the studs using four M5x50 hex tapping bolts and four flat washers.
Repeat for the other locker and wall cabinets.

3. Connecting the cabinets and lockers together
For the cabinet set, open all doors and remove the top drawer. Push the base/wall cabinet and locker together. Insert two M6x12 flat-head bolts through the interior holes and secure them with two M6 Hex flange nuts using a Phillips screwdriver and wrench.
[Diagram: Shows two cabinets being joined together with bolts and nuts.]
Final Assembly Steps
Repeat the connection process for the other lockers and cabinets.
Tighten all bolts to fasten and level the cabinets.
The installation of the 9-piece garage cabinet is finished.

Operation
Drawer Removal
Pull the drawer out until it's almost fully extended. Push up on the black release lever on one side, while pulling down on the black release lever on the other side. While holding the levers in these positions, pull the drawer outward until it is released from the drawer slide.
[Diagram: Shows a hand pushing up on one drawer slide release lever and pulling down on the other, with an arrow indicating outward drawer movement.]
Drawer Replacement
Extend the drawer slides from the cabinet. Insert the brackets on each side of the drawer into the slots in the slides, being careful to position them properly. Once inserted, close the drawer completely to set the slides in their proper positions.
Maintenance
- Lubricate the slides twice a year with a quality lubricant. This is especially necessary when the temperature drops, which may cause the bearings to be stiff.
- Periodically clean the drawer fronts, doors, handles, and other surfaces with mild soap and water.
- For safety, use a non-flammable cleaning fluid. Grease and oil can be removed with most standard cleaning fluids.
