Troubleshooting

Cabinet doors are not aligning correctly.

Check that the cabinet is level and securely fastened. Adjust the hinges on the doors according to the hinge manufacturer's instructions. Ensure all connecting parts of the cabinet were fully clicked into place during assembly.

Drawers are sticking or not closing smoothly.

Verify that the cabinet is level and that no obstructions are present in the drawer runners. Ensure the drawers were assembled correctly and that the soft-close mechanism components are properly seated. Check for any debris within the runners.

Unit feels unstable.

Ensure the adjustable legs are properly extended and locked into position to level the unit. Check that all 'click' connections within the cabinet structure are fully engaged. Make sure the unit is not overloaded beyond its intended capacity.

Glue is not holding components together.

Ensure surfaces are clean and dry before applying glue. Use the correct type and amount of glue specified in the instructions. Allow adequate drying time as per glue manufacturer's recommendations before applying significant force.
