Known furniture systems of the knock-down type are provided with improved connecting elements; i.e., hinge fixing plates, drawer slides, shelf supports and facing strips, which facilitate assembly and fabrication, increase stability and durability, and refine the appearance of the cabinet. The improved hinge fixing plate includes bearing bosses so arranged and structured as to accept conventionally available hinges in such manner as to permit adjusting of the cabinet door overhang. The improved drawer slide includes a longitudinal open-end rear slot and a transverse or vertical open-bottom forward slot spaced therefrom; the two slots cooperating to form an improved installation means. The shelf support bracket attaches to the side edge of a partial shelf having the rear section cut off to provide clearance for a lighting fixture. The shelf bracket uses countersunk holes to provide clearance between the heads of the attaching screws and the adjusting side walls. A front and rear recess which secures the bracket to the system hardware allow the brackets to be used interchangably on the left or right side. Facing strips releasably attach to and conceal exterior locking pin heads to improve the overall appearance of the cabinet.
