How To Replace Your Aeron Seat Mesh Using OfficeLogixShop New Mesh?
Installing the New Herman Miller Aeron Seat Mesh from OfficeLogixShop can enhance the comfort and durability of your office chair. This guide will help you replace the seat mesh, ensuring your Aeron chair looks and feels almost as good as new.
Tools You Will Need:
- Modern screws with updated threads
- Drill Hexagonal head (Allen key or bit)
- Optional: Extra hands for assistance
Steps:
Prepare the Chair:
- Begin by locating the notch on the front of the new seat mesh. This notch will help align the mesh correctly on the seat pan.
Position the Mesh:
- Insert the notch into its designated spot on the seat pan. Slide the mesh left and right to check for movement. If the mesh shifts, it's not properly installed. Adjust until the mesh is secure and immobile.
Secure the Center:
- Hold the mesh at the center and flip the seat pan over. Apply considerable pressure where the first screws will be installed. Start by inserting screws in the middle section—one on the left and one on the right.
Install the Screws:
- Using a drill and a hexagonal head, begin tightening the screws into the mesh. Ensure to maintain firm pressure as you move to the next holes, securing the screw at each step. After the central screws are tightened, check the positioning by flipping the pan back to ensure the mesh sits correctly.
Alternate the Screws:
- Continue installing the screws by alternating sides to maintain balance. This helps keep the mesh evenly stretched and prevents misalignment.
Final Tightening:
- Once all the front screws are tightened and the mesh feels secure, proceed to install the remaining screws at the back and then the sides. The fabric will be tight, so significant pressure is necessary to keep it in place.
Troubleshooting Misalignment:
If you notice any gaps or the mesh isn't aligned perfectly due to the screw holes, you may need to adjust the angle of the screws. Remove the problematic screw, apply pressure near the hole, and reinsert the screw at a corrected angle while maintaining the pressure.
Optional Adjustments:
- If the misalignment persists, some users opt to create a new hole in the seat pan by drilling and inserting the correct screw. This is an additional step for those comfortable with more advanced modifications.
Test and Finish:
- Once all screws are securely tightened, give the seat a final inspection to ensure there are no loose areas or misalignments. The new mesh should now be tightly fitted and properly aligned, resembling the OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) version.
