Mirror Support Instructions

Simple Instructions for Installing Mirror Support Channels

What You Need:

  • 2 Support Channels (A)
  • 14 #8 Wood Screws (B)
  • 6 Brackets (C)
  • 6 Small Screws (in the brackets) (D)

All Brackets and Screws are packed inside the support channels. You don’t need any extra wood or metal pieces.

Step 1: Attach the Support Channels to the Mirror

  1. Take a support channel and place it on the back of your mirror. (make sure the holes are on the bottom)
  2. Use one screw to attach the top part of the channel to the mirror.
  3. Use one bracket and one screw to attach the bottom part of the channel to the mirror.
  4. Make sure the supports are straight and parallel (side by side) with each other.

Remember:

  • If the supports are not straight, it’s wrong.
  • If the supports are straight, it’s right.

Step 2: Attach the Brackets to the Dresser

  1. Find where the brackets will go on the back of the dresser.
  2. The brackets on the dresser should line up with the brackets on the mirror.
  3. Attach two brackets to the top edge of the dresser.
  4. If your dresser has a "blind rail" (a strong piece of wood inside), attach the other brackets to it. You might need to remove the drawers to see the "blind rail."

Remember:

  • The distance between the brackets on the mirror should be the same as the distance between the brackets on the dresser.

Step 3: Connect the Mirror to the Dresser

  1. Put the supports attached to the mirror into the brackets on the dresser.
  2. Adjust the mirror to the height you want.
  3. Tighten the small screws in the brackets to hold the mirror in place.
