How Crate & Barrel furniture arrives
Crate & Barrel sells a long list of its furniture as Assembly Required, with instructions in the order: beds, storage beds and bunk beds, dressers, media consoles, bookcases, desks and extension dining tables. The Alfresco dining table shows the pattern. The top goes face down on a padded surface, the legs fit over sleeves and are bolted with the Allen wrench supplied, the instructions warn against overtightening, and the pre-attached levelers are adjusted once the table is upright.
The bedroom pieces carry their own hardware. The Keane dresser is mahogany with meranti veneer, its six drawers run on soft-close undermount metal glides, and it comes with anti-tip hardware and levelers that adjust the leg height. The matching Keane beds use a slat support that makes a box spring optional, with levelers included.
The count comes first
We are experienced with Crate & Barrel, and the first job on site is the count. Every leg, bolt, cap and slat is checked against the parts list before anything is joined, and any pre-existing damage or missing part goes into a written report. If something is short, we tell you immediately, help identify it and guide you on getting the replacement, so nothing is built short.
Each piece is then built in the manufacturer's order, the levelers are set to the floor, not the piece, and it is placed where you want it. Every drawer and door is opened in front of you, and the cartons are broken down and stacked where you want them. Masterwork Coverage comes standard, the Masterwork Promise sits on top, and same-day or next-day slots depend on what is already on the board.
Contract Grade for commercial spaces
Crate & Barrel marks some pieces Contract Grade, built for durability in high-traffic commercial use, and the Keane dresser is one of them. For a hotel, a restaurant or a leasing office, the pieces are installed to the floor plan and sequenced to your access windows, the way our hotel FF&E installation runs.
