Assembling your new cabinet from Noble House Home Furnishings is a straightforward process, especially when equipped with the right tools and guidance. Follow the steps outlined below to ensure a seamless and enjoyable assembly experience. Whether you are a seasoned DIY enthusiast or a first-time assembler. 

This article will take you through the process step-by-step, ensuring that your new Mid-Century Modern Mango Wood Cabinet is built with precision and care.

What You Will Need

Before starting the assembly, make sure you have all the necessary components and tools. Here is a list of the parts and hardware that you’ll need:

Parts:

• Wooden Cabinet (A) – 1
• Metal Legs (B) – 4

Hardware:

• Washer  – 13
• Bolt  – 13
• Allen Key  – 1
• Screwdriver  – 1 (not provided)

Before You Begin

Before jumping into the assembly process, double-check that you have all the parts listed above. Missing components can cause unnecessary delays. Also, gather your tools, especially the screwdriver, as it is not included with the package.

For a smooth assembly experience, it is crucial to set up a clean, flat surface. This ensures that the pieces are properly aligned and protected during the assembly process. If possible, enlist the help of an adult partner. Having an extra set of hands makes certain steps easier and more efficient.

Step 1: Prepare the Door

Start the assembly process by focusing on the door. Remove the door from the main cabinet structure, as it needs to be prepared for installation.

1. Use your screwdriver to carefully remove the knob from the door.

2. Once the knob is detached, you’ll need to reassemble it onto the door.
3. Align the knob in the correct position, then screw it back into place with the same screwdriver.

This simple preparation makes it easier to install the door later on and ensures the hardware is correctly attached before proceeding to the next steps.

Step 2: Attach the Metal Legs

Next, you’ll need to install the metal legs. This step will require some assistance, as the cabinet needs to be turned onto its back to attach the legs properly.

1. With your partner’s help, carefully lay the Wooden Cabinet (A) face down on a clean, flat surface. Be cautious during this step to avoid scratching or damaging the surface of the cabinet.
2. Take the Metal Legs (B) and position them against the designated screw holes on the cabinet. There are four legs to attach, so you will need to work one leg at a time.
   For each leg, place a Washer onto the Bolt and align the bolt with the corresponding hole on the cabinet. Once aligned, tighten the bolt using the Allen Key.
3. It is important to tighten the bolts in a sequential manner to ensure the legs are securely fixed and the cabinet maintains its stability. Make sure each bolt is firmly in place before moving on to the next leg.
4. Repeat the process for the remaining three Metal Legs, ensuring that all four are attached properly.

Step 3: Flip the Cabinet

Once all the metal legs are securely attached, it is time to flip the cabinet onto its feet.

With the help of your partner, gently lift the Wooden Cabinet and flip it into its upright position. Be careful during this step to avoid any jerking movements that could potentially damage the legs or the cabinet.
Congratulations! You now have the base of your cabinet fully assembled and positioned.

Step 4: Adjust the Levellers

If you notice that the cabinet is not perfectly level after flipping it, don’t worry. This is a common issue. Fortunately, the cabinet is designed with built-in levellers on the underside of the legs.

1. To adjust the height of the cabinet, simply turn the knob on each leg. This will either raise or lower the leg, helping to correct any unevenness caused by an uneven floor.
2. Work on each leg individually, adjusting them until the cabinet is level and stable.

This step ensures that the cabinet is stable, preventing it from tipping over or wearing unevenly due to imbalance.

Care and Maintenance Tips

Once your Mid-Century Modern Mango Wood Cabinet is assembled, it’s essential to maintain its structure and finish to prolong its lifespan. Here are some practical tips to keep your cabinet in top condition:

1. Level Surface: Always place the cabinet on a flat, level surface. This prevents strain on the legs and the frame, which could lead to wobbling or premature wear.
2. Regularly Check Screws and Bolts: Periodically inspect the screws and bolts to ensure they remain tightened. Loose hardware can cause the cabinet to become unstable over time.
3. Flooring Considerations: If the floor is uneven, continue adjusting the levellers to ensure the cabinet remains level. This will help prevent any tipping or imbalance, especially in areas with fluctuating temperatures and humidity.
4. Dusting and Cleaning: Keep the cabinet clean by dusting it regularly. A microfiber cloth works best for removing dust without scratching the surface. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth, but be sure not to soak the wood. Wipe dry immediately after cleaning.
5. Avoid Direct Sunlight: Direct sunlight can cause the wood to fade or warp over time. Place the cabinet away from windows or cover it with a cloth when necessary.
6. Moisture Protection: Protect the cabinet from excessive moisture, which can cause wood to swell or lose its natural beauty. Avoid placing wet objects directly onto the surface.

Once you’ve completed the assembly and ensured that your Mid-Century Modern Mango Wood Cabinet is level and stable, you’re ready to use it! Whether it’s a statement piece in your living room, an elegant addition to your bedroom, or a functional storage solution, this cabinet is designed to bring style and durability to your home for years to come.

FAQs

1. How do I handle scratches on the wood surface?

To fix scratches, gently buff the area with a fine-grit sandpaper to smooth out the surface. Afterward, use a wood polish or touch-up pen in a matching color to blend the scratch, restoring the cabinet’s appearance.

2. How can I prevent the cabinet from tipping over?

To prevent tipping, ensure the cabinet is placed on a level surface and the levellers are correctly adjusted. For added security, consider using wall anchors or furniture safety straps, especially in homes with children or pets.

3. Can the metal legs be replaced with different ones?

Yes, the metal legs can be replaced with other legs as long as they are the correct size and compatible with the cabinet. When choosing new legs, ensure they fit the designated screw holes and can support the cabinet’s weight.

4. Can I assemble the cabinet alone?

While it’s possible to assemble the cabinet alone, having a second person makes the process smoother, especially when flipping the cabinet or attaching the metal legs. Extra hands help avoid damage and ensure correct alignment.
