INSTALLING VANITIES ............................................................................................................
CAUTION! Always remove drawers and doors from your cabinets and and store them away from the work area
during installation (see page 7). This will make your cabinets lighter, easier to move and position, and safer to handle. Drawers
and doors can open unexpectedly and unbalance the cabinet while you are moving it, causing personal injury or damage to your
cabinet. Plus, drawer and door faces will be protected from damage during installation if stored away from your project. Damage
caused during installation is not covered by warranty.
The key to a good installation of any vanity or vanity ensemble is to understand that walls and floors are never exactly level,
plumb, or square.
Securing a vanity or ensemble to your walls is important. However, forcing a square cabinet to fit against not-so-square walls will
distort the cabinet frame and cause drawer and door hardware to mis-align and bind. Never close gaps by overly tightening the se-
curing screws. Always use shims between the cabinet and wall and floor where gaps exist before tightening securing screws. While
our hardware is adjustable to help compensate visually for some mis-alignment, the drawers may not open and close smoothly if
you dont follow this basic proceedure.
Installing Montlake & Montlake View Vanities and Ensembles
Place your cabinet into approximate position.
If you are installing an ensemble of more than one piece, clamp components together
making sure that they are accurately mated
and the top edges are exactly aligned. Drill pilot
holes and screw components together. We recommend four screws per pairing.
Place the vanity or ensemble into it’s exact final position and level units with shimming underneath
where necessary.
Vanities must be secured to wall studs in at least two positions along the back and one in the side, if the side is against a wall.
Shim where necessary at securing points between wall and cabinet if the wall is not exactly straight or plumb.
Installing Montlake Linen Uppers
Linen Uppers are always packed “upside down” to prevent damage to the doors that overhang the frame. The doors will cover
the joint where the upper and lower units join. Cut away the box and remove inner wrappings. Remove all wood shipping sup-
ports leaving in place the 90° angle brackets. These brackets will fit inside the lower unit and will be used to secure the Linen
Upper to the Linen Lower. Remove the doors and place well away from your work area (see page 7).
Always have two people lift and position the Linen Upper onto the Linen Lower. Make sure connecting brackets clear Linen
Lower edges and fit into place. Adjust the two Linen halves to mate exactly. From inside the Linen Lower, carefully drill pilot
holes and secure brackets with provided screws.
Additionally, it is especially imperative that any tall cabinet – like a linen cabinet – must be secured to the wall.

Installing SoDo Vanities & Drawer Banks
CAUTION! When mounting heavy fixtures onto a wall, extra care must be exercised to ensure a safe and durable
installation.
ALWAYS use the Mounting Bar system to distribute the load evenly.
ALWAYS use adequate fastening devices into adequate holding material.
If you are not familiar with loads, holding materials, proper fastening devices/techniques; consult a professional.
These instructions are for installing your SoDo
wall-mount vanity or ensemble to a wall con-
structed of 2" X 4" wood studs covered with ½"
gypsum board/sheet rock. Any other installation
must be undertaken by a qualified construction
specialist with knowledge of your specific ap-
plication.
Install SoDo vanities and drawer banks using
5/16" X 3½" lag screws with washers (provided).
Lag screws must engage at least two wall studs
and the lag screws must not be more than 3"
from cabinet sides. Otherwise, a cross member
between wall studs should be installed and a
qualified contractor should be consulted for instal-
lation. (See illustration 1.)

Place the vanity or linen into it’s exact final position and level where necessary using the leveler feet.
Vanities must be secured to wall studs in at least two positions along the back and one in the side, if the
side is against a wall. Shim where necessary at securing points between wall and cabinet if the wall is not
exactly straight or plumb.
Additionally, it is especially imperative that any tall cabinet – like a linen cabinet – must be secured to the wall.
We include hardware for this but your specific installation may require different/additional anchoring.

Serious or fatal crushing injuries can occur from a linen cabinet tipping over.
To help prevent tipover:
Install provided tipover restraint
Place heaviest items in the lower drawers
Do not place heavy objects on top of this product
Never allow children to climb or hang on drawers, doors or shelves
Do not open more than one drawer at a time.
Use of tipover restraints may only reduce, but not eliminate, the risk of tipover.
We supply attachment hardware with your order but some applications may need different/additional hardware. Manufacturer assumes no liability for improper instal-
lation or excessive loads placed on screws, brackets or straps.

Determine final vanity cabinet top height (excluding counter top)
and center, and mark on wall. Measure down 5¼" to mark
where the beveled Mounting Bar top edge will be on your
wall.
(See illustration 2.)
Determine side-to-side vanity position on your wall. Mounting
lag screws for wood Mounting Bar and upper rear stretcher
must be within 3" of vanity sides and must engage stud centers
or an installed cross member.
Drill 3/8" holes into the wood mounting bar (to allow the 5/16"
lag screws to pull Mounting Bar snugly onto wall). Place the
Mounting Bar in position on the wall again and mark the wall
for drilling into wall studs. Drill 3/16" pilot holes into wall and wall studs for 5/16" lag screws. It is important to drill into stud
center. If installing an ensemble consisting of multiple components, carefully plan mounting bar placement for all cabinets first.
Secure the wood Mounting Bar(s) to the wall. Do not force the wood Mounting Bar to conform with a wall that is not perfectly
flat. Doing so will make it impossible to mate the cabinet to the Mounting Bar. Use shims where necessary. Hang the cabinet(s)
by mating the bevels of the Mounting Bar(s) and cabinet upper rear stretcher(s).
Secure the cabinet(s) to the wall with additional lag screws through the upper and lower rear stretchers. Drill pilot holes
through stretchers into stud centers. Enlarge holes slightly in stretchers so that tightening the lag screws will snug the stretchers
against the wall. Shim where necessary to compensate for a wall that is not flat or plumb. If mounting multiple components, drill
pilot holes and screw components together. We recommend four screws per pairing.
CAUTION! Never stand or sit on your wall mounted SoDo Vanity.
Installing EuroLavs
EuroLav sets are comprised of a base and a top.
Installing a EuroLav Style base is as simple as setting the cabinet in place and levelling with its leveler feet (Wallingford,
Ravenna) or shims (Montlake).
Place the basin top onto the base and check for fit against the wall. There is “play” intentionally built into the base-to-top fit al-
lowing movement to get the best top-to-wall fit. Most likely, you will need to adjust the fit by shimming between the top and the
base for the best fit. Check also that the top is level and shim accordingly. Once you are satisfied with the fit and positioning,
we recommend applying Silicone type bathroom caulk to make a permanent bond between basin and base.
EuroLavs must be secured to a wall stud. Shim if necessary between wall and cabinet if the wall is not exactly straight or plumb,
or if the base is not against the wall with proper basin top wall fit.
Re-install Doors and Drawers
Once your cabinets are in their final positions and secured, re-install and adjust doors and drawers according to directions on
pages (see page 7)

INSTALLING MEDICINE CABINETS .........................................................................................
CAUTION! Always remove doors from your cabinets
during installation (see page 7) and store them away from the
work area. This will make your cabinets lighter, easier to move
and position, and safer to handle. Doors open unexpectedly and
unbalance the cabinet while you are moving it, causing personal
injury or damage to your cabinet. Plus, door faces will be protected from damage during installation if stored away from your
project. Take special care to not damage mirrors: store doors with glass side toward a wall. Damage caused during installation
is not covered by warranty.
Whether you have a medicine cabinet with traditional lights, LED light bar or just a crown molding top,
the mounting process is the same. The overall height will differ so consider that in your planning.
Our medicine cabinet mounting system
is easy to use, convenient
and very strong.
Determine the desired
location of the
medicine cabinet box
(before lights or crown
molding are installed)
and mark the wall, with
a pencil, at top center
of the cabinet box.
(See illustration 1.)
Measure down 3¾"
and make a level
horizontal line. The top
edge of the mounting
bar will be at this line.
Locate wall studs. Use two to four large (min. 3") screws to secure the mounting bar to the wall. Pre-drill screw holes in the
bar slightly larger than the screws being used so that tightening them will snug the mounting bar against the wall. Run screws
through bar, sheetrock and well into studs. If you are not familiar with types of screws, load, or how to do this for your specific
application; ask a construction professional. Do not force the wood Mounting Bar to conform with a wall that is not perfectly
flat. Doing so will make it impossible to mate the cabinet to the Mounting Bar. Use shims where necessary.
Place medicine cabinet against the wall and slide down until the medicine cabinet’s rear stretcher mates with
the installed mounting bar.

Electrical for Medicine Cabinets
You are either installing your medicine cabinet with lights or
without. If without, simply secure the crown to the top of the
cabinet.
If your medicine cabinet has lights, have your electrician
mount an electrical junction box so that power will be
available as indicated by the gray area in the illustration to
the right. (See illustration 1.)
Traditional lights: Attach the light housing to the medicine cabinet box securely with screws.
Slide the lighting fixture into the housing as shown and secure with the supplied angle pieces.
Traditional light fixtures use candelabra base bulbs available in a variety of
wattages and types. We recommend dimmable LED bulbs and your personal
taste will dictate the wattage you choose. You may also use standard incadescent
bulbs but do not exceed 40 watt rating. Be sure to use bulbs rated for “base up
applications.
LED lighting: Attach the light housing to the medicine cabinet box securely with screws. Slide the threaded support posts of
the LED lightbar through the keyed square trim pieces and into the two holes in the light housing. Secure with supplied washers
and nuts. Power is supplied by the accompanying LED driver, which is wired into your installed switched junction box.
Your electrician can now connect the light fixture wiring at the electric junction box according to code. Then secure the crown
onto the light housing and youre finished.

Installing Recessed Medicine Cabinets
The rough opening for 20" wide recessed medicine cabinets is 19¼" wide by 2" high; for the 15¼" wide model the rough
opening is 14½" wide by 2" high. The rough opening must be at least 4" deep. The opening should be framed in for
strength and to provide for cabinet attachment.
The cabinet box must be level for proper door operation.

INSTALLING MIRRORS ...........................................................................................................
Installation
Because our Newhalem mirror is large and heavy, you must be certain to attached the mounting cleats to wall studs. The mirror-side
cleat halves will likely need to be moved from their positions as shipped to mate with the wall-side halves.
Do not try to hang your Newhalem mirror using "molly," toggle or other drywall anchor devices. If you are not familiar with loads,
holding materials, proper fastening devices/techniques; consult a professional.

Strasser Woodenworks offers two types of tops to complement our vanities: classic granite and quartz with installed under-
mount basins and vitreous china one-piece tops with integral basins. The installation procedure for either is the same.
Keep in mind that all tops are heavy but the stone tops are extremely heavy. Two installers will be required to lift and place
the top!
Ensure that your vanity installation has been completed and that your vanity is properly and solidly shimmed and attached so
that the top edges are level and flat. All bottom edges or legs must be in solid contact with the floor. A low corner or edge
could lead to cracking of the top over time.
Place the top onto sawhorses or other solid support and install your faucet set(s) while you can still easily access the underside.
Then set the top onto the vanity to make sure everything clears. For example, will you be able to connect supply lines? Now is
the time to check! Remove the top and make any modifications to your vanity or structure before proceeding.
Once you are satisfied of the fit and clearances, you are ready to install your top permanently. Remove any dust, dirt and burrs
from the vanity top edges and apply a bead of silicone caulk to all edges that will be in contact with the top. The silicone will
make a flexible support to help distribute weight evenly. Set the top in place, trying to disturb the caulk as little as possible.
CAUTION! Keep your hands and fingers away from the gap under the top as you lower it onto the vanity. Make a
final check for fit and you're finished except for installing backsplash and side splash pieces if being used in your application.

CARE AND CLEANING ...............................................................................................................
Care & Cleaning
Vanities & Other Cabinets
To clean your vanity, simply wipe down your vanity with a damp soft cloth and, only if necessary, a small amount of non-
bleach, non-abrasive household cleanser. Treat your Strasser Woodenworks vanity like any other piece of furniture.
• Never use any abrasives or abrasive cleansers on your Strasser Woodenworks cabinets
• Never use a scouring pad or sponge.
• Never use bleach, solvents (like nail polish remover), or harsh cleaners on your cabinets.
Clean mirrors with a glass cleaner that does not contain ammonia or vinegar and use only on glass surfaces
• Never use a glass cleaner on finished frames of mirrors, medicine cabinet mirror door frames, or any other
non-glass surfaces of your Strasser Woodenworks cabinets! Doing so will, over time, damage the finish.
• Never leave standing water on the floor in contact with your vanity base or legs.
Do not leave wet linen in contact with finished wood surfaces for long periods of time
Stone and Vitreous China Tops
Granite and quartz surfaces are tough but will scratch or can become dulled with use of abrasive pads and/or
scouring cleaners.
China tops are very resistant to staining but will still dull over time if harsh scouring cleansers and pads are used.
For routine cleaning, simply wipe down your vanity top with a damp cloth or paper towel and, if necessary, a small amount
of non-bleach, non-abrasive household cleanser.
Wipe up spills as soon as possible, even though stone surfaces resists permanent staining. For stubborn or dried spills,
use a nonabrasive cleaning pad with a glass & surface cleaner or comparable cleaning product.
Never stand or sit on a stone or china top. Applying an uneven pressure to tops may cause cracking!
• Never pour boiling or very hot water into a ceramic basin or onto a ceramic top. Doing so will crack the basin or top.
Be careful to not drop heavy objects onto china tops or into basins.
Avoid using cleaners that contain bleach on stone tops.
Avoid exposing stone surfaces to strong chemicals and solvents.
Keep away nail polish remover, bleach, bluing, permanent markers or inks from your stone vanity tops.
Clean any stains immediately. If they persist, moisten a cloth with Goo Gone®, or a comparable product, and rub into
the stain. Rinse thoroughly with warm water to remove any cleaner residue.
