When assembling furniture, correctly identifying hardware parts is crucial for smooth assembly and ensuring structural integrity. Here’s a guide to help you identify the correct screws, nuts, and bolts when they are not labeled:
Using the Assembly Instructions
-
Consult the Assembly Instructions: The Assembly Instruction book typically includes detailed diagrams or illustrations of each hardware part required for assembly.
-
Scale Drawings: All nuts, bolts, and screws in the Assembly Instruction book are drawn to scale. This means that the size and shape of each piece in the diagram match its actual physical dimensions.
-
Match Against Diagrams:
- Take a piece of the enclosed hardware (nut, bolt, screw) and hold it up against the corresponding picture in the Instructions.
- Compare the physical hardware to the diagram in terms of shape and size.
- The correct hardware part should match the drawing in both shape and size, helping you easily identify each piece.
-
Use of Scale: Ensure the hardware part matches the scale drawing in the Instructions accurately. This method allows for quick identification and ensures you select the correct piece for each step of assembly.
Additional Tips for Identification
- Organize Hardware: Before starting assembly, organize all hardware parts into separate groups (screws, bolts, nuts) according to their sizes and types.
- Double-Check: If uncertain, double-check the shape and size of the hardware against the Assembly Instructions before proceeding.
- Count and Verify: Count all hardware pieces before assembly to ensure none are missing. Refer to the quantity listed in the Assembly Instructions.
When Labels Are Missing
If hardware parts are not labeled, following the above steps using the Assembly Instructions should effectively help you identify each piece needed for assembly.
