FAQs
Does the unit come with drawer liners?
Yes, all 10 drawers feature a lush foam lining to protect your tools.
Can I replace the hardwood top?
The top is designed for long-term durability, but it is technically a fixed component of the unit structure.
Are the drawer slides heavy-duty?
Yes, they are engineered for industrial use, featuring a soft-close mechanism for smooth operation.
How many keys are included?
The unit comes with two keys for the integral locking system.
Does the cabinet move easily on carpet?
It is designed for use on hard surfaces like concrete, wood, or workshop flooring; it is not recommended for use on carpet.
Is the unit weather-resistant?
While the powder coating is highly durable, the unit is intended for indoor garage or workshop use and should be protected from direct exposure to rain or high humidity.
Troubleshooting
Drawer feels stiff or does not close softly
Check the drawer slides for debris or grit and ensure the drawer is properly aligned on its runners.
Unit wobbles while stationary
Ensure the floor is level and engage both locking brakes on the castor wheels.
Key does not turn smoothly in the lock
Verify that all drawers are fully pushed in, as the lock will not engage if a drawer is slightly ajar.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the unit involves ensuring a level, firm concrete floor, as the weight of the cabinet requires a stable base for the castors to operate effectively. To maintain the cabinet, wipe down the powder-coated exterior with a dry or slightly damp microfiber cloth to remove dust and oil. Avoid using abrasive chemicals that could compromise the textured finish. The hardwood worktop should be treated periodically with a wood conditioner or oil if you work with solvents or fluids that could cause the wood to dry out or stain. Ensure the locking mechanism is kept clear of debris, and occasionally lubricate the wheel bearings to maintain smooth mobility.
