STEP 1: LAYOUT PARTS
On a table lay out all parts as shown in the exploded view above.
STEP 2: ATTACH FRONT SIDE BAR TO THE BOOKSHELF ENDS AND TO
THE BOOKSHELF CURVED ARMS.
TIP! It is easiest to attach the pot rack parts when you insert the barrel nut (28B) from the INSIDE of the
pot rack body, then screw the barrel bolt (28A) into 28B from the OUTSIDE.
Place the bookshelf end between the front side bar and the bookshelf curved arm. Insert the barrel portion of the bolt (28B)
from the inside through the top hole in the front side, guiding it through the top hole of the bookshelf end piece and into the
top hole of the bookshelf curved arm. On the outside attach 28A and tighten. Repeat for lower hole on the same side.
Tip! The partially assembled rack on its edge balancing on the first arm. This makes it easier to at-
tach the second arm on the opposite end of the front side bar repeating the directions.
IMPORTANT: At this time you will NOT connect back bar (3D) to the body. It will be attached when the pot rack is installed
on the wall. However, at this time screw two button head bolts (18A) into lower screw holes from the inside simply to cover
them. These are decorative only and will not be used as anchors.

TIP! SAVE TIME AND HASSLE.
PLEASE READ ENTIRE INSTRUCTIONS
BEFORE BEGINNING ASSEMBLY.
TIP! FIRST, REMOVE PAINT FROM BOLT HOLES. Because the powder coat finish applied at the
factory also adheres to the inside of bolt holes, pushing a bolt through it during assembly may be difficult. Therefore, before
connecting parts, we recommend that you check to see that bolts slip easily through all holes. If they do not, carefully clear
paint from holes in side bars, ends and arms using a small knife.
SECOND, be certain that barrel nuts and bolts screw together easily BEFORE beginning assembly. Residue from the black
finish may cause some bolts to stick a bit, therefore use the two hex wrenches enclosed (one for each end of the barrel)

STEP 3: LEVEL POT RACK ON TABLE
Place assembled rack squarely on table and adjust all parts to be certain they are level and straight. Then tighten all bolts firm-
ly. Remember ~ the back bar (3D) is not attached until the rack is installed on the wall.
STEP 4: MEASURE FOR WALL
After the bookshelf rack is squared and tightened, the distance from the center of holes at top of arms to center of upper hole in
back bar is 9 3/4”. The width between upper holes is 20-3/4”. (see diagram A at bottom of Toggler Instructions on page 4).
Use these measurements when determining location of rack on the wall in the installation section below.
NOTE: Grid and brackets will be added AFTER the rack is attached to the wall.
You’re now finished and ready to attach to the wall!
How to Attach Your Pot Rack to the Wall
TOOLS NEEDED FOR INSTALLATION:
Provided: Installation hardware (anchors, bolts, wall screws and red sleeves)
You will need: level, tape measure, pencil, electric drill and ½” and 1/8” drill bits, hammer and nail.
STEP 1: LOCATION
Decide where you want to place your pot rack. Consider the height of the wall where the pot rack will hang, keeping in mind
how far below the rack your pots and utensils will hang, plus how high above your head you can still easily reach cookbooks,
etc. stored on the grid.
On the wall, mark the four points 20-3/4” long by 9-3/4” high where the top of rack arms and back bar will attach. Then tap a
small nail through each mark to be certain a joist is not in the way. NOTE: because your pot rack includes toggle anchors, you
DO NOT need to locate and bolt to studs. See more information under STEP 2 below.
STEP 2: INSTALL DRYWALL ANCHORS
RACK IT UP!’s drywall togglers eliminate the need to bolt your pot rack to a stud. The steel anchors are very strong and when
installed in drywall each drywall anchor holds about 200 lbs. Two anchors hold about 400 lbs., many times the weight you will
likely hang from your pot rack. See Back of this Booklet for Toggle Instructions.
INSTALL IN WOOD
If you need to install one or both sides of your rack in wood, use as many of the four wall screws (30A) included, but without a
red sleeve. See back page of booklet under Step 1.
CLEANING
Your pot rack has a durable powder coat finish designed to provide years of protection. Cleaning is done easily using soap and
a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly after cleaning.

“Hammered” colors for their metal-like finishes, however any quality spray-can paint may be used. See
a paint retailer for guidance

Installation of Drywall Anchors
Bookshelf Rack
TOGGLER® brand SNAPTOGGLE® Toggle Bolt Installation Instructions. DO NOT attempt to
test the toggle as you will be unable to use them again. Need additional toggles? You may
purchase them at Lowes or find a local store on toggler.com.
IMPORTANT! If your house is older (maybe a Victorian?) with lath board plaster ceilings and walls, DO NOT use the new
drywall anchor system. Old lath board plaster walls are not strong enough to hold drywall anchors. In this case, you must
attach the wall rack to wood studs with wood lag screws (not included with your rack).
See diagram at bottom of page
1) Using an electric drill, drill a ½” hole at each of your UPPER arm points. Hold metal channel flat alongside
plastic straps and slide channel through hole. Minimum clearance behind wall should be 1 ⅞”.
NOTE: If a wood stud happens to be located at one of those points,
Use a 3/16” x 1 ½” wood screw (provided) and screw it into the
stud. (Pre-drill a 1/8” hole in the stud so the screws are easier to
screw into the hole).
2) Hold ends of straps between thumb and forefinger and pull
towards you until metal channel rests flush behind the wall.
Firmly push plastic cap up along guide straps with other hand.
Press cap inside the hole, so flange is flush with drywall sur-
face.
3) Bend straps at wall by pushing side to side, snapping off straps
level with flange of cap.
4) Repeat for other anchor point at top of rack arm.
5) Install the LOWER red sleeve anchors. Using an electric drill with
5/16” bit, drill a hole at each of the LOWER marks. With your ham-
mer, gently tap a red wall screw sleeve (30B) into each hole until it is
flush with the drywall surface.
6) Now position the rack on the wall ~ lining up hole(s) at TOP of
arms with UPPER hole(s) in wall. Screw button head bolt (19C)
through arm and into wall anchor. Tighten bolts snugly.
7) At this point make sure you have already installed 1/4”
buttonheads (18A) in the lower holes of the back bar. These are decorative only. Place the back bar (3D)
in position INSIDE end piece (a 1/8” gap will remain between the wall and bar), align holes over hole in wall, then
drive a wall screw (30A) through back bar and bookshelf end piece into a red wall screw sleeve (red). Tighten
bolt. Repeat at other end of back bar.
8) Install grid & brackets. Note narrow end of the three brackets; place narrow end at BACK of bookshelf rack in
the 1/8” gap. Position brackets in pot rack per illustra-
tion. Lay grid over brackets.
That’s It! You are now
ready to hang your
pots & utensils!
