Safety Information

WARNING! To prevent serious injury and damage:

  1. Wall Strength: Mount only to solid walls (stud, concrete, brick). Do not mount to drywall alone.
  2. Weight Limit: Maximum load capacity is 22 lbs (10 kg) distributed across all shelves.
  3. Child Safety: Mount cabinet high enough to prevent climbing. Ensure it is securely attached.
  4. Two-Person Job: Assembly and mounting are easier and safer with two people.
  5. Check Hardware: Ensure all screws are tightened securely during and after assembly.

Assembly Instructions

Follow steps in order. Do not fully tighten screws until step is complete.

  1. Lay out parts: Unpack all components on a soft, clean surface to avoid scratches.
  2. Assemble frame: Connect the side panels to the top and bottom pieces using provided screws (A). Hand-tighten.
  3. Attach back panel: Slide the metal back panel into the frame grooves. Secure with screws (B).
  4. Install door hinges: Attach hinges to the cabinet frame at marked positions using screws (C).
  5. Hang the door: Carefully hang the glass door onto the installed hinges. Adjust hinge screws for alignment.
  6. Final tightening: Once everything is aligned, go back and firmly tighten all screws.

Tip: Keep the door closed during final tightening to ensure proper alignment.

Wall Mounting

CAUTION! This is a critical step for safety. Use a stud finder.

  1. Locate studs: Use a stud finder to locate solid wood or metal studs in your wall.
  2. Mark bracket positions: Hold the wall mounting bracket against the wall at desired height (use level!). Mark screw holes with a pencil.
  3. Drill pilot holes: Drill holes at marked points. For drywall/stud, drill into the stud center. For masonry, use a masonry bit and insert wall plugs.
  4. Secure brackets: Attach brackets to the wall using the long screws provided. Ensure they are level and firmly fixed.
  5. Hang cabinet: With help, lift the assembled cabinet and hook it onto the wall brackets. You should hear a click or feel it lock into place.
  6. Safety check: Gently pull down on the cabinet to confirm it is securely mounted.

Adjusting Shelves

The shelves are adjustable to accommodate items of different heights.

  1. Remove shelf: Lift the shelf up slightly, then tilt and pull it forward to remove it from the support pins.
  2. Reposition support pins: The metal frame has rows of small holes. Decide on your shelf height and insert the metal support pins into the corresponding holes.
  3. Replace shelf: Place the shelf back onto the support pins. Ensure it is level and sits securely.
  4. Load evenly: Distribute weight evenly across the shelf and do not exceed the maximum load.

Care & Maintenance

Proper care will maintain the appearance and function of your cabinet.

  1. Cleaning Frame & Shelves: Use a soft, damp cloth. Wipe dry immediately. Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
  2. Cleaning Glass Door: Use a standard glass cleaner and a soft, lint-free cloth. Spray cleaner onto the cloth, not directly onto the glass.
  3. Check Tightness: Periodically (every 6 months) check that all screws, especially on wall brackets and hinges, are tight.
  4. Avoid Moisture: Do not install in areas of constant high humidity (e.g., shower room) unless well-ventilated.

WARNING! Do not use harsh chemicals, acetone, or ammonia-based cleaners on the frame.
