Troubleshooting
Box lid does not close fully.
Ensure the box is placed on a level surface. Check for any obstructions inside the box or on the rim that might be preventing the lid from seating properly.
Wood appears to be weathering or fading.
This is normal over time. For optimal protection and appearance, consider applying a wood sealant or stain specifically designed for outdoor redwood furniture annually.
