A step-by-step guide to building the Beaumont Triple Wardrobe in a nursery, with practical checkpoints to avoid common assembly mistakes and keep the room safe.
Quick answer
Assemble the Beaumont Triple Wardrobe directly in the nursery before filling it, working from the base up and anchoring it to the wall as the final step. Keep the room clear and follow the supplied instructions exactly, as no assembly manual is included here.
Why assemble in the nursery, not elsewhere
The Beaumont Triple Wardrobe is a large, heavy piece designed for long-term nursery storage. Moving it fully built through doorways and around corners risks damaging the frame and your walls. Build it where it will stand, and check the floor is level before you start—adjustable feet or glides (if supplied) can compensate for minor unevenness, but a badly sloping floor may need professional advice.
When to get help and when to wait
Triple wardrobes are awkward for one person to handle, especially when lifting the carcass upright. Ask a second adult to help with positioning and anchoring. If you are unsure about wall type—particularly plasterboard or older masonry—stop and consult a qualified fitter before drilling. Also postpone assembly if the nursery is still being painted or plastered; dust and moisture can affect joints and finishes.
Step-by-step assembly
- Clear the room and unpack methodically: Remove all furniture and rugs from the nursery, lay down a soft blanket or cardboard, and unpack all parts and fittings. Check each piece against the parts list before starting. Missing or damaged parts are easiest to spot before assembly—report them immediately rather than improvising.
- Build the base frame upside down: Lay the largest panels flat and connect the base and sides loosely, following the supplied instructions. Do not fully tighten screws until the frame is square. Over-tightening early can pull joints out of alignment and make later panels hard to fit.
- Fit the internal dividers and shelves: Slide in the vertical dividers and shelves before attaching the back panel. Check that each shelf sits level and that dividers are fully seated in their grooves. A shelf that feels loose now will only get worse once the wardrobe is loaded—re-seat it before closing the back.
- Attach the back panel and square the carcass: Fix the back panel according to the instructions, then measure diagonally across the front opening. If the two diagonal measurements match, the carcass is square; tighten all fixings. An out-of-square carcass causes doors to rub and gaps to appear—correct it before moving on.
- Stand the wardrobe upright with help: With a second adult, lift the carcass upright and walk it into its final position, leaving a small gap from the wall for ventilation and skirting clearance. Never drag the wardrobe across the floor—lift and walk it to avoid damaging the base and your flooring.
- Fit doors and handles, then adjust: Hang the doors according to the instructions and attach handles. Open and close each door; if they catch or sit unevenly, adjust the hinges as described in the manual. Do not force a sticking door—small hinge adjustments now prevent long-term wear.
- Anchor the wardrobe to the wall: Use the supplied wall-fixing kit to secure the wardrobe to the wall, following the instructions for your wall type. If no kit is supplied or you are unsure, seek professional advice. Anchoring is not optional in a nursery—an unsecured tall wardrobe is a serious tip-over risk.
