preassembling
Constructing parts early
Preassembling is putting together components or parts before the main assembly process or final installation.
A contractor might preassemble kitchen cabinets in a workshop before delivering them to the job site.
The practice saves time and allows work in controlled conditions: We spent Saturday preassembling the furniture frames.
