Furniture and wall fixings after moving
The wall of the new house can be very different from the previous one. For bookcases, cabinets, cabinets and other furniture, the need and type of fixing must be evaluated according to the furniture, the support and the indications available.
Collecting information about mobile
Keep manufacturer instructions, labels and references. Picture the mounted furniture and any visible connections, without removing them. Mark if it is suspended, very high, connected to other elements or equipped with openings that change the balance during use.
Do not consider fixing an aesthetic choice only. Some systems are part of the configuration planned to use the mobile. If there are no instructions or components, the problem should be reported before the reassembly and evaluated by those in charge, without automatically replacing what is missing with generic hardware.
Describe the target wall
Indicates what you know about the support: masonry, plasterboard, coatings or other materials. If you don't know him, declare him. A photograph of the wall helps to document the environment but does not allow, alone, to establish resistance and internal characteristics.
Report information available on recent plants and interventions. Do not perform test holes. The verification of the fixing point and the choice of suitable systems is for those who carry out the work, considering also the real conditions of the support and the indications of the product.
Clarify work before delivery
In the request of quote distinguish the floor mounting from the elements that need to be fixed or suspended. Communicate whether the wall will be ready on the day of the move and if there are any paints, coatings or other interventions that could change it.
It agrees how to manage a possible impossibility to complete the fixing to the first access. It is not useful to immediately fill a furniture that must still be verified. When further evaluations or components are needed, the solution must be defined before use, with clear times and responsibilities among those responsible.
Keep the indications after assembly
Once the work is done, ask which indications of use and load must be adhered to according to the mobile and the installed system. Keep the documentation available together with the furniture model. Do not move, load otherwise or change a fixed item without first evaluating its effects.
If you later notice movements, detachments or anomalies, stop the use of the interested party and request a qualified verification. This guide is used to prepare the information for the move, not to indicate universal dowels: a correct solution depends on the concrete case and not on the only fact that the furniture was stable in the previous house.
If the desired location changes during the move, it immediately communicates the choice. Also a contained shift can bring fastening to a different area of the wall and request a new evaluation before proceeding.
