The Essentials of KYDZ Suite
Never connect more than two KYDZ
Suite Panels in a straight line without
using KYDZ Suite Stabilizer Wings
or without being connected to a
stationary Jonti-Craft furniture item.
If Jonti-Craft furniture items or Stabilizer
Wings are not used, KYDZ Suite and
Jonti-Craft furniture items can be assembled
at 45˚ or 90˚ angles.
To ensure your set-up is stable, Stabilizer Wings and/or Jonti-Craft
furniture items should be added when using KYDZ Suite to divide a
room. Always place KYDZ Suite Stabilizer Wings (sold in pairs) at 180˚
compliments, perpendicular to a Panel.

The Essentials of KYDZ Suite
KYDZ Suite Welcome Gates and Welcome Arches must either be connected to KYDZ Suite Panels
at an angle other than 180˚ (straight line) or be connected to a stationary Jonti-Craft furniture item.
They can also be supported via a pair of KYDZ Suite Stabilizer Wings on each end. The Welcome
Gates and Welcome Arches should be placed on a flat surface with the handle facing outwards,
away from the space children primarily occupy.
The KYDZ Suite Welcome Gate with Tall
Arch (1553JC) and the KYDZ Suite Welcome
Arch – Tall (1554JC) can be connected
to either E-Height or A-Height options.
Where possible, the preferred connection
is A-Height options (A-Height KYDZ Suite
Panels, E to A-Height KYDZ Suite Cascade
Panels, or 35½” high or taller stationary
Jonti-Craft furniture).
The KYDZ Suite Welcome Gate (1550JC)
and KYDZ Suite Welcome Arch – Short
(1552JC) can only be connected to
E-Height options (E-Height KYDZ Suite
Panels, any KYDZ Suite Cascade Panels, or
29½” high or taller stationary
Jonti-Craft furniture).

The Essentials of KYDZ Suite
When placing KYDZ Suite Panels above an item
like a storage unit, (i.e., Upper Deck Divider)
always use specifically assigned kits and follow
assembly instructions. In these cases, the bottom
unit or Panel must be secured at both sides by
using KYDZ Suite Stabilizer Wings, 15” or 18”
deep stationary Jonti-Craft furniture items, or
connected to a structural wall. Go to page 16 for
Upper Deck Divider assembly instructions.
KYDZ Suite Panels are the same length as
most Jonti-Craft units, so they can easily be
interchanged with one another.
KYDZ Suite products are intended for indoor use only.

Assembling Hub Connector Tabs
1. To apply Hub Connector Tabs to a Jonti-Craft furniture
item, first place the Tab Mounting Template included
in your starter kit on the side of the unit as shown.
Depending on where the tabs are to be placed, align
the edge of the template with the front or rear edge of
the furniture item. Mark the holes for the appropriate
height Hub Connector Tabs needed. Remove the
template and set aside.
3. Attach the Hub Connector Tabs by inserting two
#6 – ¾” flat head screws (supplied) through the
holes in each tab and into the drilled holes of the
Jonti-Craft furniture item. Tighten using a medium
Phillips head screw driver.
4. Repeat steps to add Hub
Connector Tabs to opposite
sides or to other units.
2. Drill holes using the 1 /16”drill bit from
the starter kit. NOTE: Drill no
deeper than the red of the drill bit.
(½” deep).
