BunnyBox Home
The BunnyBox Home comes as a self-assembly kit. It's put together in 30 to 60 minutes, not counting anchoring. Watch the assembly video first, keep the PDF beside you and then work through the twelve steps.
In a few minutes, the video shows what the instructions describe in twelve steps. Especially when sliding in the front frame and fitting the flap assembly, watching is quicker than reading.
From loose panels to a standing letterbox. Watch the whole video once first, so you know what you're working towards.
The same numbering as in the PDF, so you can use the two side by side.
Lay the back panel (3) flat, with the edge with the screw holes facing you: that is the bottom. Stand the left side panel (1) upright against the left edge. The guides on the inside point upwards and inwards. Fix it in place with 3 screws A.
Work on a blanket so the coating doesn't get scratched. Using a cordless screwdriver? Set it to a low setting, as overtightening damages the screw holes.
Do the same on the right with side panel (2) and 3 screws A. Here too, the guides on the inside point upwards and inwards.
Holes not lining up? Then the panel is the wrong way round.
Stand the box upright. Slide the front frame (4) straight down from the top between the side panels. Then press it firmly into place, especially along the top edge where the letter flap (13) sits, until it is completely flush.
Place the top panel (5) on top with the thick, double-folded edge at the front, above the letter flap. Press it flat and screw it to the side panels from the inside with 4 screws A.
Carefully tilt the box onto its back, on the blanket. Press the base plate (6) into the clips so that it sits firmly. Fix it from the inside with 1 screw A into the back panel.
A second pair of hands is handy here.
Bend both wings of the flap wings (10) until they are at a right angle (90°), as shown in the drawing. Bend them both by the same amount.
Lay the parcel drop door (8) front side down on the blanket. Place the flap wings (10) on it as shown in the drawing. Push the tabs of (8) through the slots of (10) and bend them flat so that everything is held firmly.
Connect the inner panel (9) to the wings of (10) using the 2 linkage rods (11). At (9): bolt C with nut D. At the holes in the wings: bolt B with nut D. Insert all bolts from the inside: the head on the inside, the end with the nut towards the side wall of the box.
Don't overtighten: the rods need to be able to pivot.
Stand the box upright and place the flap assembly in the top compartment. First insert pins a and b of the inner panel (9) into the holes of the brackets at the back, then pins c and d of the door (8) into the holes at the sides.
Push the lock (12) from the outside through the hole in the parcel retrieval door (7). Tighten the large nut on the inside. Fit the locking hook onto the square end, with the bent end pointing away from the door, and tighten the small nut.
Turn the key to locked: the hook must catch behind the frame.
Slide a plastic washer E over the door pin F and insert the pin into the hole in the bottom edge of the frame. Place the parcel retrieval door (7) on the pin with the hole in its underside. Slide the second washer E over the pin on top of the door, push the door against the frame and insert the pin into the hole in the frame.
Is the door already fitted? Then go straight to step 12.
Place the box on a level, solid floor (concrete or tiles on concrete) and check it with a spirit level. Drill through the 4 holes in the base: Ø 12 mm, about 100 mm deep, and vacuum up the drilling dust. Tap in the 4 expansion bolts G until the washer rests on the base and tighten the nuts firmly with a 13 mm spanner. Finally, place the foam mat (14) on the base.
Always anchor the box: left loose, it can tip over or be taken away. Watch out for pipes and cables when drilling.
You can easily do most of it on your own. When tilting the box for the base plate and when fitting the flap assembly, a second pair of hands does make things easier.
Loosen the front frame screws by a quarter turn, push the cabinet straight and tighten them again. Nine times out of ten there was tension on the frame.
The fixings include 4 expansion bolts (G). Use them to anchor the box into a concrete floor or into tiles on concrete: drill 4 holes of Ø 12 mm and about 100 mm deep, see step 12. On a soft surface, use a ground anchor or a concrete paving slab under the base.
That's right: you'll have 3 screws A and 1 plastic washer E left over. These are spares. If you have more left over, go through the parts list and check that every panel is secured at all points.
