To attach the shelves to the KALLAX frame properly, here are the steps:

1. Identify the shelf pins that came with the product. These are small plastic pieces that will fit into the pre-drilled holes on the frame.

2. Insert the shelf pins into the holes on the frame, making sure they are securely in place. There should be 4 pins per shelf location.

3. Carefully place the shelf onto the shelf pins, aligning it with the frame. Apply even pressure to click the shelf into place.

4. Repeat steps 2-3 for each shelf you need to install. Make sure the shelves are level and evenly spaced.

5. If you are still having difficulty, refer to the full assembly instructions that came with the KALLAX unit or check for an online video tutorial. Taking your time and double-checking the steps can help ensure a proper assembly.

The KALLAX shelf unit is designed to be flexible and adaptable to your needs. You can add additional shelves or adjust the height of the existing ones.

The KALLAX series has a modular design that allows you to customize the shelving unit. You can purchase additional KALLAX shelf inserts to add more shelves as needed. The shelf inserts come in various sizes and can be placed at different heights to suit your storage requirements.

To adjust the height of the existing shelves, you can simply remove the shelf and reposition it at the desired height. The shelf pins on the KALLAX frame allow you to easily move the shelves up or down.

This flexibility makes the KALLAX shelf unit a great option to accommodate changing storage needs over time, even if you move to a new space

To assemble the KALLAX shelf unit:

1. Ensure you have all the required parts and hardware. Double-check the contents against the assembly instructions.

2. Start by laying out the side panels on a flat surface. Attach the top and bottom shelves to the side panels, making sure the holes align properly.

3. Insert the screws or cam locks provided and tighten them securely. This will create the basic frame of the unit.

4. Next, attach the remaining shelves, making sure they are level and evenly spaced. Refer to the instructions for the proper placement.

5. If you are missing a piece, contact IKEA customer service. They should be able to provide the missing part or offer guidance on how to proceed without it.

6. Take your time and follow the step-by-step instructions carefully. If you encounter any issues, refer back to the manual or contact IKEA for further assistance
