(Video) Watch this Wood Crate Clip Together in Just Minutes!

Remember when we told you that you could build custom crates fast? We showed you our reusable clip crates.

Well now we can show you how with this instructional video of a clip crate assembly.
  
Below is a  step-by-step summary of the clip crate assembly video. 

  1. Start the assembly process by placing one crate side/end on top of the base and in its proper location.
      
  2. Attach the first 2 clips, connecting the side/end to the base. Use a rubber mallet to assist in attaching the first two clips.
      
  3. Place the next side/end panel against the base and first-installed panel.
      
  4. Install additional clips connecting this panel to the base. A firm push of the hand should suffice in attaching the clips. The clips will “snap” once they are properly in place.
      
  5. Next, install clips along the vertical joint of the end and side panels.  

  6. Make sure to install clips approximately every 12”.
      
  7. Opposite panels will have internal cleats that will assist in positioning the panels. 
      
  8. To finish fastening the sides/ends, attach the necessary clips to the horizontal and vertical joints.
      
  9. Once all of the sides and ends are in place and properly clipped, put the top panel in place.
      
  10. Install the clips to the top panel and each side and end. These connections will be tight and may require the use of a rubber mallet.
      
  11. During the entire process, make sure to use the appropriate safety equipment (PPE).
      
  12. To remove the clips, simply insert a flat head screw driver underneath the clip, cover the clip with your hand, and pry away from the crate.
