Troubleshooting

Unit feels unstable after assembly

Ensure all click-together fixings are fully engaged and that glue has been applied correctly and allowed to set. Check that the wall mounting bracket is securely fastened to both the unit and the wall.

Door is not closing properly or is misaligned

Adjust the soft-close hinges according to the hinge manufacturer's instructions. Ensure the door is correctly attached to the hinges and that no obstructions are preventing it from closing fully.

Difficulty assembling the cabinet

Review the assembly instructions carefully. Ensure you are using the correct type and amount of glue. Make sure all panels are aligned before clicking them together.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This unit is delivered flat-packed and requires assembly. Follow the included instructions, using glue and the click-together system to join the cabinet components. The process is designed to be quick, often taking less than a minute for the main cabinet structure. Attach the door using the provided hinges, ensuring it swings in the desired direction (left or right). Use the adjustable concealed hanging bracket to mount the unit securely to the wall, ensuring it is level and flush.

Compatibility: This 500mm bridging unit is designed to connect two wall cabinets. Ensure the dimensions of adjacent wall cabinets and the space you intend to fill are compatible. Note that handles, plinths, fillers, and multi-rails are sold separately and must be chosen to match your kitchen's overall design.

Care: Clean the surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, which can damage the laminate finish. Wipe up spills immediately, especially from the door edges, to maintain the PUR-edging integrity.
