Troubleshooting

Shelf is not level

Loosen the mounting screws slightly, adjust the shelf until level using a spirit level, and then re-tighten the screws securely.

Mounting screws are not holding securely

Ensure you are using the correct type of wall plugs and screws for your wall material. If mounting on drywall, consider using toggle bolts or heavier-duty anchors.

Finish appears dull or marked

Gently clean with a slightly damp cloth and then buff dry with a soft cloth. For persistent marks, consult FDB Mobler's care guide for specific recommendations.

Wobbling after installation

Check that all mounting screws are fully tightened and that the shelf is making firm contact with the wall at all mounting points.
