cubicles. Mark on the wall the positions to fix the three back wall brackets. |

| |
| Step 3 Fitting Partitions |

| Attach the hinges to the doors. Attach the indictor bolt to the door. Block the doors up to the level of the hinge panel bottom using wood and
place the door on the blocks. Engage the lock and mark off the indicator bolt on the fascia at the point you want to attach the keep. Mark off the hinge placement on the hinge panel. To drill the hinge holes remove the nut at the bottom of the hinge and reassemble and attach the hinges to the walls ensuring the door is hung horizontal.
