How to Assemble a Chevron-Pattern Nightstand with Two Drawers

Step 1: Unboxing & Organizing

Instruction: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. You should have the main wooden panels (with chevron detailing on the drawer fronts), two drawer units (front, back, sides, and bottoms), a metal base frame, and a hardware kit (screws, bolts, handles). Lay them out on a clean surface, verifying each item against your assembly manual.

Step 2: Building the Metal Base

Instruction: Identify the metal base components. Align the pre-drilled holes in each leg or crossbar according to the manual. Use the provided bolts to secure the frame, leaving them slightly loose until all sides are in place. Once the base is level and square, tighten the bolts evenly.

Step 3: Attaching the Wooden Frame

Instruction: Next, position the main wooden box (the nightstand body) on top of the metal base. Align the pre-drilled holes or brackets at the bottom of the wooden frame with the base’s mounting points. Insert the screws or bolts, tightening them securely so the frame sits level.

Step 4: Assembling & Installing the Drawers

Instruction: Construct each drawer by connecting the sides, back piece, and bottom panel to the chevron-patterned front. Attach the handles from the inside of the drawer front if they aren’t pre-installed. Slide each drawer onto the rails inside the nightstand, ensuring they open and close smoothly.

Step 5: Final Checks & Personalization

Instruction: Gently shake the entire unit to confirm stability. Tighten any loose bolts or screws, then wipe down all wooden surfaces with a soft cloth to remove dust or fingerprints. Finally, place your new nightstand in its designated spot—use the drawers for convenient storage and style the top with a lamp or décor to complete your bedroom look.

Conclusion

Its two-drawer layout offers practical storage, while the modern aesthetic suits a variety of bedroom styles. Enjoy your new piece and the stylish flair it brings to your space!
