tools

Impact Driver or Drill, T20 Bit (included in assembly kit), #2 Phillips Head or Blum Pozidriv Screwdriver, Rubber Mallet or Dead Blow Hammer

8 x 1 ¾ (4×45 / 26mm) Screw with Countersunk Head (Used for Cabinet Box Assembly)
Hinge Clips come with respective screws

Locate the Hinge Clip Holes
- Take one cabinet side panel.
- Find the two small holes near the front edge—these are for the hinge clips.
Position the Hinge Clips Correctly
- Place each clip so the arrow faces toward the front of the cabinet.
Install the Clips
- Insert the two plugs into the holes.
- Tighten the screw so the clip expands and locks into place.
Avoid Shelf Holes
- Be careful not to confuse hinge clip holes with shelf holes (which are farther back).
Optional Order of Installation
- This hinge step can be done before or after assembly, but it’s easier to do it first.

Start With the First Side Panel
- Lay one cabinet side flat on a table.
Attach the Bottom Panel
- Line up the Lamello Tenso clips on the bottom panel with the side panel.
- Press firmly until they snap into place.
- Use a rubber mallet if necessary.
Install the Middle Divider
- Align the clips on the divider and press it into place the same way.
Install the Top Panel
- Repeat the same snap-in process for the top section.
Install the Back Panel
- Orient the back panel correctly:
  - The pre-drilled screw holes must line up with the center divider.
  - The rabbet groove should face outward.
Attach the Second Side Panel
- Carefully align all Lamello clips on the remaining side.
- Press into place and use a mallet if needed.
Ensure All Clips Are Secure
- Double-check that everything is fully snapped together.

Locate the Screw Holes
- Pre-drilled holes are already placed on the cabinet sides for easy alignment.
Insert Cabinet Box Screws
- Use the provided T20 bit and screws.
Recess the Screws Slightly
- Sink screws just below the surface to avoid gaps between panels.
Screw All Key Areas
- Install screws on:
  - Both sides of the cabinet
  - Top, bottom, and middle sections
  - Through the back panel into the center divider
Keep Front Edges Flush
- While tightening screws, make sure all front edges stay perfectly aligned and flush.

Stand the Cabinet Upright
- Once the box is fully secured, position the cabinet vertically.
Prepare the Hinges
- Insert hinges into the pre-drilled holes on each door.
Lock Hinges Into Place
- Push hinges into the holes and lock them by pressing down the hinge lever.
Repeat for All Doors
- Install hinges on all doors before attaching them to the cabinet.
Attach Doors to Cabinet
- Line up the hinge with the clip on the cabinet.
- Hook the hinge bar onto the clip.
- Press until it clicks into place.
Install the Hinges in Order
- Start with the top hinge first, then the bottom hinge.
Repeat for All Four Doors
- Attach the remaining upper and lower doors the same way.

Use a #2 Phillips Head or Blum Pozidriv Screwdriver for Adjustments
- The Blum hinges allow six-way adjustment:
  - Up / Down
  - Left / Right
  - In / Out
Align Door Reveals
- Adjust each door until gaps and alignment look even.
Do Final Adjustments Later
- It’s recommended to wait until the cabinet is mounted on the wall before perfecting door alignment.

Confirm Everything Is Secure
- Verify all clips are snapped in.
- Check that screws are tight and recessed.
- Make sure doors open, close, and align properly.
Assembly Is Finished
- Your upper door over-door cabinet is now fully assembled and ready to install.
Repeat for Additional Cabinets
- This same process applies to similar Access cabinets with only minor variations.

Having a helper makes assembly easier.
Always double-check back panel orientation.
Wait to fine-tune doors until after wall installation to avoid misalignment from cabinet racking.
It includes three shelves by default, with the option to order more.
