15. How to Master A Pivot Bookcase Installation
Unleash your inner carpenter with this sleek, hidden pivot bookcase guide!
1. Planning! Start with a detailed 2D SketchUp drawing. Finding the perfect pivot point is a game-changer. Ensure your bookcase swings clear of the hinge jamb and opens a full 90 degrees.
2. Elevate Your Design: Swing the bookcase above the baseboard for a smooth glide, ideally about 2 3/4 in. above the floor. No more snagging on rugs or unsightly gaps!
3. Crafting the Bookcase: Use dado cuts for sturdiness. Bonus tip: Festool MFT table is a carpenter’s dream for cutting dados. And remember, edgebanding with precision helps avoid unsightly gaps between plywood and solid stock.
4. Assembly Tricks: Pre-finish everything using water-based polyurethane for a seamless look.
5. The Hardware Magic: Use a Rixson Model 370 pivot hinge for heavy bookcases. Each part needs meticulous planning, so templates are your best friend.
6. Getting the Bookcase Up: Align everything to fit seamlessly, considering both laser measurements and manual checks for perfect alignment.
7. Final Touches: Add a UHMW plastic shim for durability, ensuring the top trim allows 1/16 in. clearance for swinging. Avoid joint visibility by ensuring the architrave molding runs past the bookcase.
