Prima Vanity Units

1. Prima vanity units can be installed either standalone

or joined together to create a larger run of furniture.

Follow steps 2 to 4 if you have purchased two Prima

vanity units to join together, otherwise proceed to

step 5 for installation of a single Prima Vanity Unit.

2. Carefully unpack and place both vanity units down

onto a ﬂat and level surface. It may make installation

easier by removing the drawers at this point - see

ﬁg. 5.

3. Position both units next to each other so that they

line up correctly, then secure them together with

clamps. Drill four evenly spaced holes right through

the carcass sides to be connected. To prevent any

break-out when drilling, a sacriﬁcial piece of wood

can be secured over the exit location of the drill

before drilling. Secure together with the connecting

bolts provided (Fig.1).

4. When the two units are joined securely with the

connecting bolts, remove the clamps and follow

instructions for Prima vanity unit steps 5 to 12 below.

5. Position the unit in a suitable location. Carefully

mark the desired position of the unit using a so

pencil.

6. Using a spirit level, mark a horizontal line below

the pencil mark, taking into account the location of

the furniture hangers. Place brackets on the pencil

line paying attention to the distance between the

furniture hangers. Carefully mark the position of the

holes using a so pencil. (Fig. 2 & 3).

7. Before drilling, ensure there are no hidden

cables or pipes behind the mounting points.

Using a suitable drill bit, drill holes in the marked

positions to a suitable depth.

8. Insert wall plugs level with the surface of the wall.

If ﬁtting to a tiled surface, wall plugs should be

inserted below the tile surface to avoid cracking.

NB. For plasterboard walls, specialist heavy

duty ﬁxings should be purchased from any DIY or

hardware store.

9. Fix the brackets to the wall using the screws

provided (Fig. 2 & 3).

10. Hang the furniture unit, ensuring the claws on the

hangers are securely located on the wall brackets.

Using a spirit level, make the unit level by adjusting

screw B on the hangers (Fig. 4). Once straight,

tighten screw A until the unit is secure against the

wall.

11. If necessary, the drawer runners can be adjusted

in order to realign the drawer front(s). Ensure the

securing screw on the underside of the drawer

runner is removed before adjusting the drawer

runner and the screw is re secured when adjustments

have been completed. (Fig. 5).

12. Lastly, mount the basin onto the furniture unit using a

ﬁne bead of silicone to seal the washbasin to the unit

and wall edges.

Tall Units

1. Please note that the tall units can be mounted as

both right hand and le hand door opening.

2. Position the unit in a suitable location. Carefully mark

the desired position of the unit using a so pencil.

3. Using a spirit level, mark a horizontal line below the

pencil mark, taking into account the location of the

split baton style furniture hanger. Place mounting

baton on the pencil line and carefully mark the

position of the holes using a so pencil. (Fig. 6).

4. Before drilling, ensure there are no hidden

cables or pipes behind the mounting points.

Using a suitable drill bit, drill holes in the marked

positions to a suitable depth.

5. Insert wall plugs level with the surface of the wall.

If ﬁtting to a tiled surface, wall plugs should be

inserted below the tile surface to avoid cracking.

NB. For plasterboard walls, specialist heavy

duty ﬁxings should be purchased from any DIY or

hardware store.

6. Fix the mounting baton to the wall using the screws

provided (Fig. 6).

7. Hang the tall unit onto the wall baton, ensuring that

it is securely seated.

8. In order to adjust the position of the shelves

(please note that the centre shelf is ﬁxed and not

removable), the doors must ﬁrst be removed.

9. To remove the doors, simply unclip the hinges (using

the release catch at the back of the hinge - see (Fig.

7). They can be reattached by reversing this action

and pushing the hinge back on to the mounting

plate until they click into place.

10. Once the door is removed, simply remove the shelf

studs and reinsert them in the required position.

Replace doors.

11. If necessary, the door(s) can be adjusted to align

them with the cabinet carcass. This is done by

adjusting the small screws on the hinges (see Fig. 7)
