Drill the handle holes in the doors
Lay the doors down onto a smooth surface.
Important: Check that the holes and hinges are in the same place as the diagrams.
Note: We recommend the use of a small piece of waste wood, placed behind the hole while drilling, to reduce the possibility of any breakout.
Using the pilot hole in the rear face of the door , drill through the holes indicated opposite, using a 2.5mm diameter drill.
Turn the door over and open out the 2.5mm holes that you have just drilled by drilling back through them with a 5mm drill.

Fit doors and handle
2 people are needed here
Note: The easiest way to
attach each door is to fit the top hinge first, then align and fit the other hinge.
a: Push the hinge
onto the front part of the hinge plate .
b: Keep the hinge
FLAT against the hinge plate as you slide it across as far as it will go. Tighten screw A.
c: The hinge must be
flat against the hinge plate prior to any adjustment.
d: The hinge must
NOT be AT AN ANGLE to the hinge plate when assembled. This would indicate that the recess at the bottom of screw B had not located in the slot in the hinge plate and the hinge would not be secure. Remove the hinge from the hinge plate and then re-assemble being careful to follow instructions a-c.
e: Attach a handle to
each door using 2 screws .
