*** PLEASE READ FIRST * From most reviews below THE DOOR HINGE at the top is the most difficult to figure out. USE black bolts, and the INSIDE SCREW is for adjusting the door ONLY. Do not tighten. Tighten the outside bolts. The inside bolt is designed to bent the bracket in and out so you can adjust the angle of the door when closed. I hope this helps. BTW this video is much better than the factory one. Thanks for doing this video. I wish I had watched yours first
Thank you for this video, it was very helpful in comparison to Napoleons official assebly video that lacks narration and close ups. It sorted out the screw issue on step 9 as my instruction sheet did not mention the use of the stainless screws. I think it all came together easily and can't see how people complain about the instructions. As a Swede you basically live your life by an IKEA manual anyways. Cheers!
Wow, just got mine yesterday and getting ready to tackle it. Your vid shows up when searching along with the manufactures! But unlike Napoleon, you narrate (nice bonus). I have to admit I thought it would be more put together out of the box. Will have to use my old scale model building experience to get this one together. Might be fun! Thanks for the vid.
My new Phantom Natural Gas BBQ is waiting to be unboxed and assembled - this video will be very helpful, in addition to the install booklet. I found this video very helpful! Love the sounds of the kids in the background!
@@csebastian71 Assembly Booklet could be greatly improved - maybe a video would be far more useful and make the assembly a joy - are you listening Napoleon?
COOL !!! Nice grill. I'm in the process of buying a grill, I see that Napoleon gives more than weber, qualitatively, also looks great. At the beginning I wanted to buy a Weber but I think I will choose and buy napoleon. I live in Poland, I have a family in Canada. Have fun grilling BBQ. Regards
Thank you for this video! I was a bit confused when it came to putting the doors on. Tried calling their customer solutions and they are closed on the weekends.
It does take a bit of playing with to get the doors on straight, but it does fit! It would work better with another pair of hands! Good luck! I hope you can figure it out!
Put my grill together this afternoon. Mine went together a bit easier than yours. I ended up with a bunch of extra screws. The right shelf did not seat easy. Hope it gets better over time. Wish the grill had a propane gauge like my old Weber, but I love this grill.
Great video!! Much better than the official one. I haven't actually used it yet because my Napoleon is on it's way. But, I have a question that is concerning to me that maybe you can answer. I have propane run to my pool cabana underground from a large tank. Can I assemble this with the propane inlet hose sticking out the back so I connect to my propane outlet in my cabana instead of inside to a portable tank? Thank you for any insight you may provide.
Great question, even though I don’t have an official answer I’m gonna say that it shouldn’t be a problem because you can always use a flexible rubber line from the barbecue to the propane line. Hope this helps! 😊
does anyone know what the pre-drilled theaded holes on each side of the grill are for? They are below two stainless screws an in a dimple. They seem to be for nothing.
There were extra screws, and the instructions were not very clear on which ones to use for the seat station, but they did fit. As mentioned in another comment, the screws may be a tight fit, but do fit!
@@ujjwalsaxena16 yes - get a powered drill and really force it. I know it feels wrong, but what you're doing is creating the threading for the screw to go in. It's the right place for the screws. Bad design - sorry, Napoleon.
No wonder why I couldn't get the doors on. The instructions for step 12 show the same two screws to use as in step 11 (not the stainless screws that you installed). Good thing you posted this video. By the way, were you able to find a grill cover? They're all sold out. Happy grilling!
I got the doors on with the other screws but they aren't perfectly level and require some lifting in order to get them fully closed. Were you able to get yours to open and close perfectly?
@@con4man I actually called Napoleon's customer service and they actually told me those 5 stainless screws are for another model and to stick with exactly the screws the doors call for. With that in mind, yes, the door's close and open fine on a perfectly level surface, but if you start to move grill about, one of the doors becomes off-level and won't close by itself when it's near the magnet.
I found that the outside and inside screws for the doors work together. Move both in the same direction to move the top or bottom part of the door. Door misalignment is really noticeable on uneven ground or pavers.

Just got mine yesterday and it's about 70% assembled. Very, very, very useful information. Thank you!
I’m just dealing with this now. Great tip about NOT tightening the inside screw!!! Thank you!!!
@@marilynnstubbs4834 glad that helped.
Mine arrives in a week, thanks for the very clear assembly instructions, I had concerns, I no longer have concerns, job well done.

Tip putting in the door pins, make sure the lower grommet is set into the hole before trying to put in the top pin.
Nice recovery on second door pin. You almost had two left side doors. Great video Thank you
thanks for posting. Looks relatively easy. You explain very well.

Agree. Now I know where those long stainless bolts go. I used the black ones. 😂 Thanks

Mine turns up in two hours :-) Thanks for this video - will help me build it this evening! Cheers as well!
Glad I could be helpful!
Thank you so much for the video, very descriptive and really helpful !
Very detailed video. Better than Napoleon’s video - they ought to hire you. Thanks for your efforts!
Beautiful grill
I love Napoleon

Just Nevermind the sear station the party that I needed to see

good info on the weight. 200 lbs is a lot in one box. I pick ours up tomorrow and can't weight to get it out of truck. Ibuprofen before pickup!

How’s the black color compared to stainless steal
does anyone know what the pre-drilled theaded holes on each side of the grill are for? They are below two stainless screws an in a dimple. They seem to be for nothing.
The screws for the sear station side table were too big for the holes, did you run into this same problem?
The silver screws fit. It's tight at first because the holes are not threaded.
There were extra screws, and the instructions were not very clear on which ones to use for the seat station, but they did fit. As mentioned in another comment, the screws may be a tight fit, but do fit!
Tight is an understatement my power drill even binds and they're sticking out.
@@ryanfx1 Hey Ryan - I’m in the same boat. Did you find a solution for the screws on the side grill?
@@ujjwalsaxena16 yes - get a powered drill and really force it. I know it feels wrong, but what you're doing is creating the threading for the screw to go in. It's the right place for the screws. Bad design - sorry, Napoleon.
How do you like this grill?
I absolutely love it!
so mine, we cannot find any screws in the box..
Literally the one thing I clicked on this video for is what you skipped for some reason - the right hand side shelf. TAL
Where are the side installation
No wonder why I couldn't get the doors on. The instructions for step 12 show the same two screws to use as in step 11 (not the stainless screws that you installed). Good thing you posted this video. By the way, were you able to find a grill cover? They're all sold out. Happy grilling!
Thanks for watching! I’m glad the video was helpful! Yes I finally managed to find a cover, but it took a lot of searching!
I got the doors on with the other screws but they aren't perfectly level and require some lifting in order to get them fully closed.
Were you able to get yours to open and close perfectly?

I played around with it on first assembly, but I'll give it another shot one of these days
I watched the video to see how the side burner went on.
Every video skips the door adjustment. This to me is the only part that's finicky.
