How to Assemble a Three-Drawer White Nightstand

Step 1: Unboxing & Organizing

Instruction: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. You should have two side panels, a top panel, a bottom panel, a back panel, three drawer fronts (with knobs), drawer side pieces, drawer bottoms, and a hardware kit (screws, bolts, possibly wooden dowels). Lay everything out on a clean surface, verifying each item against the assembly manual.

Step 2: Building the Main Frame

Instruction: Identify the two side panels. Attach the bottom panel between them using the provided bolts or screws, aligning the pre-drilled holes. Keep the hardware slightly loose to allow for minor adjustments. Next, secure the top panel, ensuring it’s level with the side panels. Finally, fasten the back panel to complete the frame.

Step 3: Assembling the Drawers

Instruction: Construct each drawer by connecting its side panels, bottom board, and front panel (which has a pre-installed knob or holes for knob attachment). If the knobs aren’t already attached, secure them from inside the drawer front. Repeat for all three drawers.

Step 4: Inserting the Drawers & Checking Alignment

Instruction: Carefully slide each assembled drawer onto the designated rails within the nightstand frame. Gently push them in and out to ensure smooth movement. If they catch or stick, adjust the rails or tighten any loose screws.

Step 5: Final Touches & Placement

Instruction: Gently shake the entire unit to confirm stability. Tighten any remaining bolts or screws, then wipe down the surfaces with a soft cloth to remove dust or fingerprints. Place your new nightstand beside your bed—use the drawers for personal items and the top surface for a lamp, alarm clock, or decorative accents.
