Setup, Compatibility & Care
The product is supplied flat-packed in two boxes. It is recommended to assemble the unit on a flat, level surface to ensure the doors and hinges align correctly. Use the provided instructions to secure the stainless steel fittings firmly. To maintain the finish, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth periodically to remove dust or debris. Since it is constructed with galvanised steel, it is naturally resistant to corrosion, but checking the stainless steel screws annually for tightness is good practice to maintain stability.
