Five easy steps for selection and installation
1. Measure your closet for length (wall-to-wall), width (wall-to-door opening) and height (floor-to-ceiling) All closet organizers will need to be cut to size
2. Select your closet design style and finish (when applicable)
3. Remove existing closet fixtures repair walls if necessary and paint walls prior to the installation of the new organizer
4. Measure and mark location of wall studs and secure rail to studs
5. Cut shelves if necessary to size and install for completion
WHAT IF MY LAUNDRY SPACE IS NOT 8' WIDE - a common question but not a problem as long as your space is at least 6 1/2 feet wide. You simply cut the mounting rail and wire shelves or wood shelves to your exact measurements. That is what the professional installers do. You won't even notice that the ends have been cut because they will generally be snug against the wall. A hack saw takes care of the metal parts and a circular saw takes care of the wood shelves if that is what you order. If your closet is over 8 feet you can leave an open space on one end. Again, this is very common.
Don't worry...this freedomRail laundry system is super easy to install! The instructions you will receive actually say "Step one, you're almost done!" You can even add additional components in the future without having to buy a whole new system. This laundry system will finally give you the organizational space you have been looking for.
Everything begins with the mounting rail. This is what you do:
1. Measure up 84 inches from the floor and pencil a level line at this height. This measurement can be adjusted based on the height of your ceiling.
2. Place the rail on the wall so the line is visible through the mounting holes. Make a circle at each hole. NO need to align the holes with studs. The system includes anchors & screws.
3. Drill each hole with a 5/16 inch drill bit.
4. Tap the plastic anchors into each hole (each hole is 8 inches apart) then place the rail over the anchors and twist in several screws to hold the rail.
5. Insert and tighten all screws with a power drill until the anchor tightens nto a ball behind the drywall. Place cover stickers over each screw head.
The uprights simply hang on the rail that you just installed! From here you complete the installation by attaching the brackets, rods and shelves at the appropriate intervals. That's it. The beauty of this laundry organizer system is that you can adjust the shelves horizontally as needed without having to re-install the system. Additional accessories such as drawers or "O" box shelves are available. Just add what you need!
