drilling, to reduce the
possibility of any
breakout.
Using the pilot holes in
the rear face of the door,
drill through the 2 holes
indicated opposite, using

Step 33
Fit doors and handles
Note: The easiest way to
attach each door is
to fit the top hinge first,
then align and fit the
other hinges.
a: Push the hinge
onto the front part of the
hinge plate .
The recess at the bottom
of screw B goes into the
slot in 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 .
