preassemble
Construct in advance
Preassemble means to put together the parts of something before final installation or use.
Manufacturers preassemble components in factories so that workers at the job site can install them more quickly and with less skill required.
The cabinets arrive preassembled, so you just mount them to the wall.
Preassembled items range from furniture to electronics to building sections, trading higher shipping costs for reduced labor at the destination.
