1. Shows the upper part of the bottom and the extra 90 degree bend required to secure the extra rigidity of the double base. (Unit has a full closed double base-no raw parts or hollow bottom to cabinet.)
 2. Shows the lower part, made exactly like the upper part. The double bottom is not only a cover and a bottom: the extra 90 degree bends secure the complete encasement of the base and add lateral rigidity.

RESULTS: A stronger base will not twist and will firmly hold the vertical inside structure.
3. Shows the offset joints that are built in the following parts:
          - Both sides of the cabinet.
          - Back of the cabinet. (Sides and top)

RESULTS: The offset joints add rigidity to each individual part. More aesthetic. Flush fitting.
4. Shows the extra 90 degree bends that are done on both sides and back of the cabinet.

RESULTS: When all these 90 degree bends are welded to the double bottom base, the components become part of the base.
5. Illustrates the offset joint of the top at the back of the cabinet.
6. This is the bottom part of the back, showing again the offset joint on the side
of the back and the extra 90 degree bend at the bottom of the back.
7. The top reinforcing bar with the extra 90 degree bend to its design. This extra piece of bent metal (the more bends, the stronger the unit) becomes part of the top and upper front structure of the cabinet when welded to the vertical uprights.

The front vertical uprights are made with seven (7!) 90 degree bends and one
offset joint. Perforations at every 1-1/2" reflects the 1-1/2" increments in the size of the modules. The back vertical uprights are of an omega shape. Front and rear vertical uprights are then spot welded to the sides of the cabinet.
CROSSTIE
See exploded view. A crosstie is normally installed on all 4, 5, and 6 drawer high units. Most of our competitors use a crosstie of about 4 to 5 inches deep by the width of the cabinet, fastened to the front only. Doxasteel is using a full depth
crosstie, fastened to the front and back of the cabinet.

RESULTS: Extra rigidity (and security!) on 4, 5, and 6 opening units. (See next)
LEVELLER SUPPORT CHANNELS
Two Omega channels are welded together, back to back, with the glide receiver nut riveted in place. These reinforcements are then clipped and welded inside the double base. The are intended for extra rigidity and to support the levelers.
