Directions

  • Attach boards to create top & bottom

    Glue and screw together boards to create the top and bottom: ¾” x 9 ½” x 36 ⅝”, ¾” x 4
    ¾” x 36 ⅝”, and ¾” x 3 ½” x 36 ⅝”.
    Make 2.

    Step 1

  • Attach boards to create side panels

    Glue and screw together boards to create side panels: ¾” x 5 ½” x 47 ½” and ¾” x 1 ½”
    x 47 ½”.
    Make 2.

    Step 2

  • Attach side panels to backing

    Attach the side panels to the outermost side of backing using wood glue and 1 ¼”
    pocket hole screws.

    Step 3

  • Attach the bottom

    Attach the bottom with the pocket holes facing up. Both the top and bottom pocket holes
    should be facing the same direction.

    Step 4

  • Attach the top

    Attach the top with the pocket holes facing down. Both the top and bottom pocket holes
    should be facing the same direction.

    Step 5

  • Assemble doors

    Put together doors using a 3” wood clamp at the joint and (2) 1 ¼” pocket-hole screws
    on either side of the 1 ½” x ¾” x 14 ⅜”. Your doors will be smaller than your opening at 3/32”
    gap around the door for an inset cabinet door.

    Step 6

  • Drill concealed hinge holes

    Use your concealed hinge jig to make 2 hinge holes on either end of the cabinet door.
    The number of hinges is based on how heavy your door is (9-13lbs only needs 2 hinges).

  • Attach legs

    Attach legs by screwing from the interior bottom of the cabinet down through the legs.

    Step 8

  • Attach hinges

    Attach the hinge plate to the interior cabinet shell 2 3/16” from the front edge, directions
    will say 1 7/16”. You need to add the width of your door (¾”) to the 1 7/16”. Follow hinge
    installation guide instructions.

  • Apply edgebanding

    Add oak edgebanding to one long edge of your 35 ⅛” x 15” x ¾” shelves. Attach shelves
    15 ¾” from the top interior part of the cabinet to the top of the ¾” plywood shelf, using 1 ¼”
    pocket-hole screws.

    Step 10

  • Attach cane webbing

    Use ¼” crown staples to attach your cane webbing at least a ½” overlay from the edge
    of the wood. Cut around the hole for your concealed hinges.
    Soak cane for 30 minutes in warm water before attaching for optimal usage.
    *Optional - Apply wood glue over staples and add a small trim piece if you wish to cover up the raw edge.

  • Attach doors

    Clip in your hinges and attach doors to concealed hinges separately. With the
    110-degree angle of the inset hinges, getting the hinges to clip into the hinge plate was difficult when already attached to the doors. Adjust hinges as necessary, there should be a 3/32” gap
    around the inset cabinet doors.

    Step 12

  • Add interior door stopper

    Attach interior door stopper by using scrap wood, cut (2) 1 ½” x 3” pieces and glue 1 ½” inset from the edge. Add this to the top and bottom to stop the doors from over extending into the cabinet.

    Step 13

  • Add safety braces

    For safety, please brace the cabinet to the wall using anti-tip hardware for use around
    children.
