Introduction
Thank you for choosing the Nexel 5 Tier Chrome Wire Shelving Starter Unit. This manual provides detailed instructions for assembly, usage, maintenance, and troubleshooting to ensure you get the most out of your shelving unit. Please read all instructions carefully before beginning assembly and retain this manual for future reference.
Assembly Instructions
Before you begin, ensure all components are present and undamaged. Assembly is straightforward and requires no special tools.
Parts List:
- 5 x Wire Shelves
- 4 x Posts
- 20 x Shelf Clips (4 per shelf)
- 4 x Adjustable Leveling Feet with Non-Marring Floor Glides
Step-by-Step Assembly:
- Attach Leveling Feet: Screw the adjustable leveling feet into the bottom of each of the four posts. Ensure they are securely tightened.
- Install Shelf Clips: Determine the desired height for your bottom shelf. Snap two halves of a shelf clip together around each post at the same desired height. Ensure the clips are seated firmly in the grooves on the posts. Repeat for all four posts for the first shelf.
- Place First Shelf: Carefully lower the first wire shelf over the posts, ensuring that each corner of the shelf slides down over the installed shelf clips. Apply even pressure until the shelf rests securely on the clips.
- Install Remaining Shelves: Repeat step 2 and 3 for the remaining four shelves, positioning them at your desired heights. Shelves can be adjusted in 1-inch increments.
- Final Adjustment: Once all shelves are in place, gently push down on each corner of every shelf to ensure they are fully seated and secure. Adjust the leveling feet as needed to compensate for uneven floors and ensure the unit is stable.

Usage Guidelines
To ensure the safe and effective use of your shelving unit, please observe the following guidelines:
- Weight Distribution: Distribute weight evenly across each shelf. Avoid concentrating heavy items in one small area.
- Load Capacity: Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity per shelf (consult product specifications for details, typically several hundred pounds per shelf for wire shelving).
- Stability: Always ensure the unit is stable and level before loading. Adjust leveling feet if necessary.
- Environment: This unit is designed for dry applications. Avoid prolonged exposure to moisture or extreme humidity to prevent corrosion.
Care and Maintenance
Regular cleaning and proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your chrome wire shelving unit.
- Cleaning: Wipe the shelves and posts with a dry cloth to remove dust and debris. For more stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap, then immediately dry thoroughly.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or harsh chemical solvents, as these can damage the chrome finish.
- Inspect Periodically: Periodically check all connections, especially the shelf clips and leveling feet, to ensure they remain secure.
Troubleshooting
Most issues with your shelving unit can be easily resolved. Refer to the table below for common problems and solutions.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Shelving unit is wobbly or unstable. | Uneven floor; leveling feet not adjusted; shelves not fully seated on clips. | Adjust the leveling feet until the unit is stable. Ensure all shelves are pushed down firmly onto their clips. |
| Shelf is not level. | Shelf clips are not at the same height on all posts for that shelf. | Remove the shelf, re-position the clips to ensure they are at identical heights on all four posts, then re-seat the shelf. |
| Difficulty sliding shelf onto clips. | Clips may not be fully snapped together or aligned correctly. | Ensure each two-part clip is fully snapped around the post and that the top of the clip is flush with the groove. |
