ASSEMBLY ADVICE
1. Assemble on a strong, level surface. Avoid assembly on a domestic carpet.
2. Use a cloth or softwood block to protect the surface finish of the product
when using a mallet. Strike the flat surface of each beam to prevent
damage to the beam.
3. Always ensure that the rivets sit at the bottom of the keyhole slots.
4. It is recommended that the assembly should be done by two persons.
5. Always wear protective gloves when asssmbling this shelving.
6. The shelving unit is not recommended for outdoor use.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
TOOLS REQUIRED
• Rubber mallet or hammer
• Protective cloth/wood block
The tabs of the beams will often enter
the slots fully using just firm hand
pressure but if they are too tight, you
may require a rubber mallet to assist.
If so, always use a cloth to protect
the product paint finish.
Tap gently with the mallet to drive the
tabs of the beams fully into the slots in
the corner post. Always strike the
edge close to the post.
1. Use the short beams (D) to
connect the front and rear posts
together.
NOTE: The edge with the wider
flange should be installed
uppermost to support the
shelf.
• Repeat this again to create the
other end assembly, making sure
that the corresponding beams
are at the same height.

2. Ensure the posts are the right way
up with the upper ends as shown in
the detail.
3. Join the two end assemblies
together with the long beams (C)
as shown.
4. Connect the support beams (E) to
the long beams (C). First bend the
tabs 90 degrees to pass them
through the slots in the long
beams.
• The tab initially lays flat against the
long beam (C).
5. Next, bend the tab back through
180 degrees to grip the long
beam.
• Use a screwdriver or similar tool to
bend the tabs.
6. Finally bend the tab again through
90 degrees the opposite way, to
seat tightly against the support
beam (E).
7. Ensure there is no movement
between the beams.

8. Fit post joining inserts (F) into the
posts (A), ensuring that the inserts
are fitted with their keyholes to
match those of the posts.
9. Construct the upper end
assemblies onto the post inserts (F)
before adding more long beams
and support beams as previously
to complete the framework.
10. Lay the shelf panels (B) into
position.
• Always fit the top shelf at the
highest position.
11. Insert the plastic end caps (G) into
the end of each post (A).
12. We recommend that the shelvng
be secured to an adjacent wall
using typical wall insert plugs and
screws (not supplied) aligned with
the assembly slots in the posts.
