Are mounting screws and hardware included?
Info needed: Please check the product packaging or included assembly manual to confirm if specific mounting screws and wall anchors are provided. It is always recommended to use hardware suitable for your specific wall type.
How do I clean the melamine finish?
Simply wipe the surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners, abrasive pads, or polishes, as these can damage the finish.
Can I install this unit on drywall?
Yes, but it is crucial to mount the unit directly into wall studs for maximum security. If studs are not available, you must use heavy-duty drywall anchors specifically rated for the unit's weight (16.7 kg) plus the TV and contents (up to 20 kg).

Troubleshooting
Unit appears wobbly or not level after mounting.
Ensure all mounting screws are fully tightened and that the wall brackets are securely anchored. Re-check using a spirit level and adjust if necessary. If mounted on drywall, ensure it's secured into studs or appropriate heavy-duty anchors.
Drop doors do not close properly or are misaligned.
Check the hinge adjustments. Most drop-door hinges have screws for minor alignment adjustments. Refer to the assembly manual for specific hinge adjustment instructions.
Scratches or marks appear on the surface.
For light scratches, a furniture repair pen in a matching grey shade might help. For deeper marks, contact the manufacturer for advice or consider using furniture touch-up paint. Always avoid abrasive cleaning materials.
