Troubleshooting
Shelf is wobbly after installation.
Ensure mounting bolts are fully tightened into the wall. Check if wall anchors (if used) are secure. If the wall surface is uneven, consider adding a thin shim behind the shelf during mounting.
Scratches or marks on the steel surface.
For minor surface marks, try a non-abrasive metal polish or a soft cloth with a small amount of cooking oil. For deeper scratches, consider using them for less visible storage or embracing the patina.
Difficulty finding suitable mounting hardware.
The product typically includes mounting bolts, but wall anchors may be required depending on your wall type. Consult a local hardware store for recommendations based on your wall material (e.g., drywall anchors, concrete anchors).

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To install the Folded shelves, first identify the desired location on a suitable wall. Use a level to ensure the shelf will be straight. Mark the positions for the two mounting bolts. Drill holes at the marked positions, insert appropriate wall anchors if necessary (depending on wall type), and then securely fasten the shelf using the provided bolts. Ensure the shelf is stable before placing items on it.
Compatibility: The shelves are designed for wall mounting and are compatible with most standard wall types (drywall, plaster, concrete) when using appropriate hardware. They are suitable for indoor use in various rooms such as bathrooms, kitchens, hallways, and offices.
Care: Clean the shelves with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the steel surface. For tougher marks, a mild soap can be used with water, followed by drying thoroughly with a clean cloth.
