IMPORTANT:

Two people may be required to complete the assembly.

As you assemble the cabinet, make sure the edges with the holes are facing up.

If you are assembling the cabinet on the floor, fasten the eight front corner bolts, two at each corner, after you stand the cabinet upright.

Assembly Steps:

1. Place side panel (P1) on a flat, firm surface so that the edge with the holes is facing up as shown.

2. Insert the cabinet top (P2) between the edges of side panel (P1). NOTE: Make sure the edges with the holes are facing up.

3. Align the holes and attach the top (P2) to side panel (P1) using six hex-head bolts (F1) and two 5/16″ flange nuts (F2) as shown. Do not tighten completely.

4. Position the other side panel (P1) so that the top (P2) is between the edges of side panel (P1).

5. Align the holes and attach the top (P2) to the side (P1) using six hex-head bolts (F1) and two 5/16″ flange nuts (F2) as shown. Do not tighten completely.

6. Insert the cabinet bottom (P3) between the edges of the side panels (P1). NOTE: Make sure the edges with the holes are facing up.

7. Align the holes and attach the bottom (P3) to the sides (P1) using six hex-head bolts (F1) and two 5/16″ flange nuts (F2) for each side as shown. Do not tighten completely.

IMPORTANT:

Attach the back panels starting at the top of the cabinet with back panel (AAA) and working down to the cabinet bottom. Each back panel will overlap the panel below.

Do not completely tighten the screws until all back panels are in place.

Steps to Attach Back Panels:

1. Align back panel (AAA) with the holes in the cabinet top. Using seven phillips-head screws (F3), attach back panel (AAA) to the cabinet top and sides.

2. Slide the top of back panel (BBB) under the bottom of back panel (AAA). Using four phillips-head screws, fasten back panel (BBB) to the cabinet sides.

3. Repeat Step 2 for the remaining back panels ending with back panel (EEE).

4. Using two phillips-head screws, attach each back panel to the panel below. NOTE: Using three phillips-head screws, attach panel (EEE) to the cabinet bottom (P3).

5. Completely tighten all back panel screws starting with the sides and continuing with the top, middle and bottom.

6. Using the hex key (provided), completely tighten all 24 cabinet bolts and nuts.

1. Place the cabinet on its side.

2. Screw a leveling foot (P4) into each of the four rivet nuts located at the corners of the cabinet as shown.

3. Stand the cabinet upright.

4. If you have not already, fasten the two bolts at each front corner of the cabinet frame. Completely tighten all the cabinet bolts and nuts.

IMPORTANT: Use the pair of holes located in the middle of the cabinet sides to install a center shelf without the magnet (P5), so the doors will lock. The other two shelves with magnet (P5m) may be installed where desired.

1. Place the shelf (P5) without the magnet in the cabinet so that the long edge with the two holes is facing out.

2. Align the holes in the shelf ends with the pair of holes in the middle of the cabinet sides (P1).

3. Using two phillips head screws (F3) and flange nuts (F5) per side, fasten the shelf (P5) to the sides (P1).

4. Determine where you want to place the other two shelves with magnet (P5m). Align the holes in the shelf ends with the holes in the cabinet side. NOTE: Make sure the magnets in the long edges of the shelves are facing the cabinet front.

5. Using two phillips head screws (F3) and flange nuts (F5) per side, fasten the shelves with magnet (P5m) to the cabinet sides (P1). Completely tighten the nuts.

IMPORTANT:

The door with the lock assembly (P7) should be installed on the right-hand side of the cabinet.

The door hinges are designed with keyhole slots at the top and bottom so the door will hang on the cabinet while you are fastening the screws.

Door Installation Steps:

1. Start phillips-head screws (F3) in both the top and bottom holes on each side of the cabinet.

2. Hang the right-hand side door (P7) from the top and bottom screws, and hand tighten.

3. Insert the middle four phillips-head screws (F3) through the door hinge into the cabinet and hand tighten.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 to attach the left-hand door (P6).

5. Align the doors and completely tighten the screws.

1. Make sure there is a bolt or screw in each hole of the cabinet frame.

2. Move the cabinet to its final location.

3. Place a level on an inside shelf, and if necessary, level the cabinet by adjusting the height of the leveling feet. Turn to the left to raise or to the right to lower the leveling foot.

4. If the doors are not aligned, loosen all the screws attaching the door hinge to the cabinet. Adjust door to the desired height, and fully tighten the screws.

Each of the four shelves can hold up to 75 lbs (34 kg).

The bottom of the cabinet can hold up to 150 lbs (68 kg).

Yes, a Mounting Bracket Kit is available. This kit allows the cabinet to be mounted on Gladiator Garageworks GearWall panels or GearTrack channels. The part number for this accessory is GABK362PSS.
