Top of the line, Model A-46 is professionally designed
to include the most premium set of features, allowing
for the utmost ease and comfort when ironing. The
telescoping steel support legs provide the rugged
stability necessary when ironing with the superlative
46-inch length board. A 4-inch height adjustment lets
you choose the most comfortable work position. A
solid state, silent timer turns on power to the built-in
work light and the electrical outlet. The electrical cord
cover and restraints help guide the cord over the
board, eliminating potential snags. You can leave your
iron plugged in at all times, even when the door is
closed. A built-in safety switch disconnects all power
when the board is returned to the upright position.

The oversized hot iron storage compartment, iron rest,
storage shelves, garment bar, and indicator light are
the standard accessories completing this supreme
ironing center.

… looking for the optimal

freedom in board usage?

… no place to leave your iron

when moving or turning

your garment?

Place the iron in this

handy heat resistant iron
rest. This allows for more
useable space on the

ironing board while making

your garment adjustments.

Add the optional swivel board. The
premium length board coupled with the
adjustable swivel creates the overall
maximum flexibility that you would
want in an ironing board.

The Model A-42 is skillfully designed with a 90 degree
left/right, industry standard 42-inch, ventilated steel
swivel board, giving flexibility in confined areas like
corners in the laundry room or kitchen. Its easy 4-inch
height adjustment automatically returns to its normal
ironing board position every time the board is put
away.

The solid-state silent timer, premium sized hot iron
storage compartment, built-in work light, storage
shelves, electrical cord wrap, and on/off indicator light
are the outstanding standard accessories that complete
this ultimate ironing center.

No reason to worry if you’re

temporarily called away or

unable to continue your ironing!

The solid-state, silent timer offers safety
and convenience on the Model A-42 and

Model A-46. Just set the dial to the

desired time. The on/off indicator will

let you know the power is on. Power

shuts off automatically once the time has

expired. If you’re called away, just place

your hot iron into the hot iron storage

and lift the board into the upright

position, the electrical safety switch

disconnects power instantly.

Allow for only the
amount of cord
required to iron by
using the electrical
cord wrap. You can
then easily guide the
iron and eliminate the
excess cord from
getting in your way.

… more than just a few garments to iron.

Order the optional garment bar rather than
the standard garment hook. The garment bar
can hold multiple clothes hangers, making it
more convenient to perform continuous ironing.

The Model E-342 has been expertly designed to only
include core components and any additional features
are optional. What sets this unit apart from the others
is you can design the perfect ironing center to fit your
needs.

The cabinet houses a premium sized hot iron storage
compartment, storage shelf, an appliance outlet, an
on/off illuminated rocker switch, and an industry
standard 42-inch, ventilated steel board. Now you just
add any or all remaining features to customize your
ultimate built-in ironing center.

Do you want to create an environment that provides
optimal surroundings when ironing out all the
wrinkles?

Add an optional spotlight. This will

enhance your ability to iron out

those sometimes hard to spot

creases and crevices not

found when ironing

garments in insufficiently

lit areas.

Storage is not a problem with

our ironing centers!

All models will include an additional

storage shelf, our premium A-46 cabinet

will include two storage shelves.

Keep all your ironing aids in one handy location!

The Model NE-342 is just what you need if an
electrical outlet is easily accessible. Built with all the
same quality materials as our electric models.

The NE-342 features a premium sized hot iron storage
compartment, storage shelf, and a rugged 42-inch
ironing board made of ventilated steel.

Not only is it convenient to
store your iron inside the unit,
but the location keeps the iron
out of children’s reach.

There’s no reason to let your
iron cool down, the insulated
heat shield allows for
immediate shelving.

Our metal ventilated

board differentiates itself

from the earlier wooden

ironing boards. The

traditional built-in wooden

board only needed to be

hard for the dry irons of the
day. Today’s advanced steam irons are designed to project bursts of steam to penetrate deep
into the fabric. Using them on a wooden ironing board causes condensation on the board and
hot spots when ironing. Our metal ventilated board allows this steam to pass through the
fabric keeping the surface drier and providing a more even-heated ironing surface.

The Model NE-242 is a surfaced mounted, non-electrical
unit. Perfect for areas where you want to iron, but the
wall/surface can not be penetrated for recess mounting.
You have fast access to your ironing board, without
in-cabinet iron storage. This quality built model comes
with a rugged 42-inch, ventilated steel ironing board.

Ordering a NE-242 with a

white door, the cabinet has a

white interior as well as a

white exterior. This

compliments many of the

closets system in the

market today.

The swivel feature is available for this surface
mount unit. The feature does not include a 4”
height adjustment, but it creates the flexibility that
may be necessary in confined areas.
