Using a stud finder, locate the wall studs to be used for mounting.
2.
Locate the existing wiring or other utilities in the wall to prevent drilling into or severing a wire or other utility during installation.
3.
Determine the desired location has adequate clearance for ironing. Door opens approximately 180°. Allow at least 16" from side of

5.
Attach 2" x 4" cross support cleat between the studs, level with the bottom of the opening.
6.
The cabinet will be attached to studs using four screws, one in each side at the top of cabinet and one in each side at bottom
of cabinet. Using a 1/8" drill bit, pre-drill pilot holes approximately 14" from the top of the cabinet and 2 1/2" from the back of the
cabinet. Models without a swivel, pre-drill pilot hole approximately 14" from the bottom and 2 1/2" from the back of the cabinet.
Models with swivel board, complete Steps 8, 9, and 10 before pre-drilling pilot holes for bottom location.
Note: If an electrical model is being installed, the temporary removal of the electrical wireway may be helpful to complete this step.
Reinstall electrical wireway after cabinet is attached to studs.
7.
If installing an electrical model, please review Electrical Instructions now. If installing a non-electrical model, do not install your own
electrical outlet inside cabinet. Warranty voided if independent electrical outlet installed within non-electrical ironing center cabinet.
8.
Begin installation by carefully lifting ironing center into the wall opening.
9.
Plumb and level the cabinet. Shim to fit.
10.
For models with swivels, continue with Step 11. For models without swivels, attach cabinet to studs using the four pre-drilled holes
with four #10 x 1 1/2" screws. Once complete, continue to Step 12.
11.
Attach cabinet to studs using the two pre-drilled holes and two #10 x 1 1/2" screws for the top installation. Locate the side ironing
board brackets that are secured to the cabinet with three screws each. Remove the top screw only from each side bracket. Use
this location to pre-drill pilot holes for bottom installation location. Pre-drill a pilot hole through top hole in each bracket into stud
Finish attaching cabinet into studs using the #14 x 2 1/2" screws for the just completed two pre-drilled holes in each side bracket.
12.
Decorative trim may be added to cover any irregularity on wall.

4. Using a 3/16" drill bit, pre-drill a pilot hole into the wall stud where the cabinet will be attached to the wall taking care that the
installation height is as desired.
5. Determine the proper mounting screw location inside cabinet so mounting position is located on wall stud as intended. Location for
mounting screw should be as close to the center of the cabinet as possible.
6. Using a 1/4" drill bit, pre-drill hole in the upper and lower cross braces located inside the cabinet as determined in the previous step
taking care that the holes in both braces are drilled to same measurement.
7. Partially start mounting #14 x 4" screw into upper cross brace for installation of ironing center.
8. If installing an electrical model, review Electrical Instructions now (back page.) If installing a non-electrical model, do not install your
own electrical outlet inside cabinet. Warranty voided if independent electrical outlet installed within non-electrical ironing cabinet.
9. Begin installation by carefully lifting the ironing center into position.
10. Attach cabinet to wall by fully inserting the screw in the upper cross brace into the pre-drilled hole in the wall stud.
11. Plumb and level the cabinet. Shim if necessary. Tighten cabinet to wall by fully turning installation screw.
12. Insert second #14 x 4" screw into pre-drilled hole in bottom brace of cabinet and attach to wall making sure cabinet remains
level and square.
13. Decorative trim may be added to cover any irregularity on wall.
Additonal Recommendation: On all adjustable swivel models, locate side ironing board brackets that are secured to the cabinet with
three screws each. Remove the top screw only from each side bracket. Use this location to pre-drill pilot holes into trim. Insert into the
two pre-drilled holes in each side bracket #14 x 1" screws (not included.)

3.
Verify that there is ample supply wire available to run from the top of the ironing center cabinet to the approximate
location of the electrical pigtails. (A free wire length of approximately 48" is recommended.)
4.
Begin to place the ironing center into its location while feeding the free supply wire through the opening in the
top of the ironing center cabinet and the 3/8" romex connector attached to the back cover of the electrical
wireway. (If surface mounting, a vent hole will need to come through the back of the cabinet for electrical
feed of wire. Approximate center diameter position of electrical knockout is 24 1/2" down from top left of
cabinet and 2 13/16" from left side of cabinet.
