Assembly Instructions

Usage Instructions

To maximize the storage capacity and functionality of your shoe rack, consider the following:

• Placing Shoes: Position shoes with the toe facing outwards for easy identification and access. The non-slip coating on the bars helps prevent shoes from sliding off.
• Utilizing Fold-Up Bars: For taller footwear such as boots or high heels, simply fold up the bar directly above the pair to create additional vertical space. This customizable feature allows you to store shoes of various heights without obstruction.
• Weight Distribution: For optimal stability, distribute the weight of your shoes evenly across the rack. Place heavier shoes on lower bars if possible.

Care and Maintenance

To keep your Whitmor Over-the-Door Shoe Rack in excellent condition, follow these simple care instructions:

• Cleaning: Wipe down the resin side frames and coated steel bars with a damp cloth. For tougher spots, a mild soap solution can be used.
• Drying: After cleaning, immediately towel dry all surfaces to prevent water spots or potential damage to the finish.
• Inspection: Periodically check all connections to ensure the bars are securely in place and the over-the-door hooks are stable.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your shoe rack, consider the following:

• Shoes Sliding Off: Ensure the shoes are placed firmly on the non-slip coated bars. For very smooth-soled shoes, try angling them slightly or utilizing the fold-up bar feature to create a more secure fit.
• Rack Instability: Verify that the over-the-door hooks are properly seated on the door and that the non-slip door pads are making full contact with the door surface. Ensure weight is evenly distributed.
• Door Closure Issues: If the door does not close properly, check that the rack is not obstructed by the door frame or other items. Adjust the position of the rack or the door pads if necessary.
