Well at least I didn't have to build one...She knows how long I take on the things that are for our house and figured we didn't have that much time left...

 

Very nice looking for sure but don't think this kind should be in homes where people move a lot. Notice the line beside the door frame...the back piece should have corrected the lean but in this house which was new could have been installed that way.

  Oh, by the way, there is an installation tool included if you intend on using the nails that was included in the supplies.. I prefer screws to hold the back on but hey...+

 

 I do think the installation tool will last anyone's life time. Maybe if it was a bright color it might easier to find when needed...

I don't think there is a square/plumb location in our house!

To hold small nails, I normally use needle pliers.  Screws are held to the bit until it is pushed into the wood.  Is there such a thing as a square house?  We have always had to shim and fudge in our house.  Which is out of square - the house or the furniture we put in it? 

Is that electrical plug still accessible?  Maybe a different location would be better.

 

Michael she had a 2 foot tall bookcase by 2 foot wide and lots of books covered the two beds in that room and when the kids came to visit she had to rearrange the books to the floor or another room . So getting the room in better shape was her goal. We knew the plug in might not be usable but the vacuum was the only thing ever used there but all the rooms have lots of extra receptacles in all the rooms which was a request while they were building the house.
