Troubleshooting

Unit does not feel rigid after assembly

Ensure the glue has fully dried and that all panels were firmly clicked together during assembly. Check that the 8mm back panel is correctly seated and secured.

Door does not close smoothly or is misaligned

Check the hinge adjustments. The soft-close hinges usually have adjustment screws to fine-tune the door alignment and closing action. Ensure the door is correctly attached to the hinges.

Difficulty clicking panels together

Ensure there is no debris in the connection grooves. Verify that you are using the correct panels for the step. Apply even pressure during the clicking process.

Scratching or damage to the MFC surface

Use only mild, non-abrasive cleaning cloths and detergents. Avoid sharp objects coming into contact with the surface. If minor scratches occur, consult the manufacturer's guidelines for touch-up solutions if available.
