Assembly Instructions for an Ordning Dish Drainer
Like most IKEA products, the Ordning Dish Drainer is an example of minimalist design in a fully functional product. The drainer consists of two suspended wire racks that lock together so that your dishes can hang and dry. Even though the drainer only has a few parts, if you misplaced the directions it can be difficult to determine how to put it together. But if you have a Phillips screwdriver you can have it set up in just a few minutes.
Instructions
1
Stand one of the open metal rectangles up so that it is taller than it is long. Position the rectangle so the side with three holes is closest to the ground.
2
Insert the long, thin rod into the hole located in the middle of the bottom rail of the open metal rectangle. The rod will simply slide in.
3
Place the perforated metal sheet on top of the rod so the two holes on one end of the sheet match up with the holes in the bottom corners of the rectangle. Insert screws into those bottom corner holes and tighten them to secure the metal sheet.
4
Insert the other metal rectangle on the other side of the rod so the holes in the two rectangles mirror each other. Attach this rectangle to the metal sheet with screws, in the same manner as the other side. You should now have a metal sheet and two standing brackets.
5
Place one of the wire racks between the two side brackets. Turn the rack so the side with the loop in one corner is pointing down. Position the two prongs on the other side of the rack into the holes in the top corners of the brackets. Insert screws into the outside of the holes to secure the rack in place, but don't tighten them just yet.
6
Put the loop on the second wire rack over the prong on the bottom corner of the first rack. At the same time, the prong on the second rack will go through the loop of the first, connecting the two pieces together.
7
Position the last two prongs of the second rack into the holes in the middle of the front of the brackets. Secure this rack with screws. You can now tighten all of the screws in place.
