Basic Bookcase Assembly Instructions
Step 1
Near both the top and bottom ends of the bookcase sides
you will notice a series of holes bored front to back. Insert
wooden dowel pins in the larger holes. Screw connector
bolts into the smaller holes. Do not overtighten the bolts.
Once they are flush stop.
Step 2
Lay the LEFT bookcase side on a flat surface and install
the top shelf. Line up the holes on the end of the shelf with
the cam bolts on the bookcase side and press downward.
Make certain the groove on the top shelf matches up with
the groove on the bookcase side.
Step 3
Insert the cam washers into the holes with
the cam bolts. The arrow on the washer
points towards the bookcase side at about
the 6 o’clock position. To tighten, turn
clockwise to abou the 11-2 o’clock posi-
tion.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the bottom shelf.

Step 4
We are now going to install the back panels. Start with the
plank labeled on the back “1st Plank”. Line both ends of
the plank up with the grooves on the top and bottom shelf,
and slide down into the groove on the left bookcase side.
The tongue will be facing upward as shown. Install the
remaining planks in the same manner, ending with the
plank labeled “Last Plank”. Planks are graded good one
face only. That means the back side of the plank is allowed
to have non-structural cosmetic defects, so long as they are
not on the good face, or will show once assembled.
Step 5
Install the right bookcase side by lining up the bolts with
the holes in the ends of the top and bottom shelf and press
into place. Make certian the back plank seats properly in
the groove. Install cam locks in the same manner as you did
in steps 3-4. Install the bottom runner with one wood screw
on each end and screw into the sides. The pocket screwhole
should face towards the back of the case so that you don’t
see it. Depending upon your taste, the bottom runner can
be istalled flush with the front of the case, or offset. Offset-
ting gives a distinctive look and is the most

Important Note
Bookcases over 46” in height should be securely
fastened to the wall to prevent tip over. Since
your new bookcase has a 100% solid wood back,
you may simply screw through the back of the
case and into a wall stud. A 3” long screw is
recomended. It may be helpful to drill a small
pilot hole first.
Optional
If you are certain that you will never need to take
your case apart, you may place 2 - 1 1/4” finish
nails in each of the 4 corners on the back of the
case. This will help prevent “racking” or side to
side movement of the case. This is purely optional
and will not add any structural strength to your
case.
