New'Arcwore' System Puts Every Deqler in Cobinet Business With Minimum Investment

New Concept in Cerbinets Cuts Time, Building Cosfs

STEP ONE (top photo): Afrer milling simple nofches qnd sow kerfs into fir plywood side pieces, components con be ploced into iig for hordwore opplicqtion, ond finished, knockdown cobinet con be houled ro iob flot, except for drowers, qnd ossembled rhere. Ji9 oligns door with side pieces.

STEP TWO: Bottom qluminum frqme is ploced on floor, reody to receive first of plywood rectongles stqcked in reor; frqmes ore ovqiloble in sizes keyed fo oll stondqrd cobinet dimensions for upper ond lower units; speciol dimension fromes cqn olso be o rd ered.

STEP THREE:Side ponel hos been inserted in chon' nel of bottom frome. The locking ridge on lhe frqme engqges fhe sow kerf on the ponel. Door hos olreody been hung on the side ponel.

STEP FOUR: Wirh bofh side ponels in ploce, the bock ponel of the cobinet slides into fhe verlicql sqw kerfs of those ponels. When fully inserted, the bqck ponel rests on the lip of the lower Arcwqre frqme,

STEP FIVE: Side qnd bock ponels qre now in ploce in the bottom frqme. At this point, the iop frome engoges the ponels ond locks the entire ossembly together.

STEP SIX: This boftom ponel is the finol "link" which opplies the pressure to hold the entire unit rigidly together. The open spoce obove the doors is for opplicotion of on opron, or the insertion of o wide drower. Drqwer slides ore mounted ro the side ponels. This is one of mony ollernote door-drower orrongemenls ovoilqble in the Arcwore syslem.
