Teak Garden Furniture - Test Assembly

Please test assemble your teak furniture product before using glue and starting the final assembly process. You may use ordinary nails in the dowel holes to hold the product together (do not bang in the nails, just insert them into the dowel holes). The step of test assembly will allow you to make sure of the following:

a) You know how the parts fit together,

b) You can see the product in its assembled form before permanent assembly

c) You can check whether the teak product fits your preferences.

General Steps for Assembly of your Indoor or Outdoor Teak Furniture

1) Inspect package and Drawings to recognize all components. Note little numbers on ends or faces of components.

2) Lay out the parts so that the numbered pieces match.

3) Tenons (oval, round or flat extending things) will go into the Mortises (oval or round or rectangular holes) as shown to the right.

4) Put some glue in the Mortise and around the tenon, as illustrated to the right.

5) In general, Start assembly by laying one side on the ground and building upwards. (Click the photo to enlarge.)

6) Once all the pieces are in place, insert a small screwdriver or pin into all the dowel holes to ensure they are aligned.

7) Lightly Tap dowels in with a hammer or mallet. You will feel them seat. Dowel will not go in all the way. There will be about 1/4 inch of dowel left over. You may cut off the excess with a chisel or a kitchen knife.
