ASSEMBLY OF REGAL SHELVING

12.

If you are assembling only a single unit,
assembly is now complete (shown below left).
If you are assembling multiple units joined
together, your starter unit should have been
assembled with a “T” upright (shown below
right), as described in step two. Continue with

step 13.

13.

Repeat steps 7 through 11, adding a new "L"
or "T" upright and connecting with shelf
supports to complete the add-on unit.

11.

The top shelf supports and top shelf (Ref. No. 2)
should be installed flush with the upright top.

10.

Continue the
assembly by placing
supports and shelves
as described in steps
8 through 9. The
recommended
spacing
between shelves
is fifteen inches,
(eight open keyhole
slots between
supports).

7.

Hold a second “L” upright
(or a “T” upright if you are
assembling multiple units)
approximately 36" away.
Pull the first upright away
from the wall using the
shelf support you attached
in step 3, and insert the
other end of the shelf
support into the second
upright. NOTE: Take care
not to let the uprights
fall, as they are not
stable until step 8 is
completed.

8.

Place a shelf support at the rear of the unit in the
bottom keyhole slots, in the same way you placed
the shelf support in steps 5 through 7. Then,
place a second shelf support at bottom front of
unit.

5.

Lean one “L”
upright against a
wall, and
temporarily place
one shelf support

(Ref. No. 2) at
approximately eye
level to properly
space the uprights.
Make sure both
rivets on the shelf
support are fully
inserted into the
keyhole slots, and
are firmly seated at
the bottom of the
keyhole as shown in

step 6.

3.

Examine the slots on the two uprights which

you have selected. When an upright
is standing up on end, the narrow part
of the keyhole slots should be toward
the floor, while the wide part should be
toward the top (see illustration at left).

6.

PLEASE NOTE: To firmly seat shelf supports
and backstops, make sure both rivets are fully
inserted in the keyhole slots, and firmly seated
in the bottom of the slot. A rubber mallet can
be helpful in accomplishing this. Supports are
not fully seated unless you can see an
open space through the hole in the shelf
support as shown below.

1.

Unpack all items and carefully compare the
items you received with the packing list on the
back page.

2.

Determine whether you will be assembling a
single unit, or multiple units joined together. For

a single unit, use two “L” uprights (Ref. No. 1a).
For multiple units, use one “L” upright and one
“T” upright (Ref. No. 1b).

9.

Place a shelf (Ref. No. 3) on the unit by inserting
it so that it
nests into
the shelf
supports. A
properly
placed shelf
will fit flush
with the shelf supports as shown
below:

4.

After determining which end
of the upright is the bottom,
attach a plastic foot (Ref. No.
4 or 5) to the bottom of each upright
by pressing it into place.
Note, at right, the difference
between a foot for an "L" upright
and a foot for a "T" upright.
