If damage has occurred, or a visible defect exists, do not proceed with installation and advise supplier immediately.

Getting Started All goods must be checked prior to installation. If defects are found due to manufacturing faults then goods MUST NOT be installed. The merchant must inform the manufacturer. If there is a proven manufacturing defect i.e. outside of tolerance and the installation is carried out then, the manufacturer will replace the item. However, the installation costs will be the responsibility of the installer. When installing the cabinets – the drawers/doors may need to be adjusted, due to movement throughout carrying the goods. Please view the instructions further below on hinge and drawer adjustment. Any wall to which product is fixed must be of suitable construction to support that product’s weight.

However, first check that the unit has not been twisted during installation. 09. Tiles/Mirrors etc surrounding the installation must provide adequate space for future removal of product if required. Tiles or mirrors must clear cabinet by at least 3mm. We recommend tiling behind furniture and ceramics. 10.

Where a separate basin is to be fitted it is essential that the basin must be centred over the cut-out and be fully sealed to the cabinet and top to prevent any water penetration.

When a cabinet has soft close drawers, the drawers will need to be removed prior to installation of the cabinet. Please view the following instructions on how to remove the drawers. Removal When you pull the drawer out you will notice a grey label on each side of the drawer (as per below diagram). When the label on each side is removed – it will reveal a small lever on each side of the drawer. Both levers are to be pulled up at the same time, then slide the drawer out slowly towards you. Remove cover cap Release drawer from the slide, pull out the drawer (Failure to do this will damage the drawer running mechanism) Drawer re-installation Push runners into cabinet, place drawer body on runners and push in firmly. Two clicks should be heard as drawer sides click into place. Replace drawer front as per reverse of diagram above. Engaging the soft-close mechanism Put the drawer back in half way – close the drawer. Then pull the drawer back towards you. Underneath the drawer you will feel a small tab. This is on each side of the drawer. Pull the tab towards you and at the same time push the front of the drawer back. This will engage the soft close mechanism. Adjustment Check the unit is square on the wall before making adjustments. Adjust drawer rails to ensure top and bottom drawer face align giving a flush close. Clockwise = in, anticlockwise = out.

It means that your soft close drawer is not engaged correctly. Follow the instructions on page 03 to re-engage the soft close mechanism. Why is my soft close drawer making a noise on closing, and not closing smoothly? If the release tabs on the drawer are not lifted properly, then this may cause the cog to strip on the soft close mechanism. Please contact Bath Co Customer Services for a replacement. This is not covered under warranty. What are the dimensions of the cabinets – internal and external? All dimensions can be found on our website – www.bathco.co.nz or in our brochures.
