Maintenance and Care

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Ameriwood Home Farmington Cabinet, follow these care instructions:

• Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Spills: Immediately wipe up any spills to prevent moisture damage to the engineered wood.
• Sunlight: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight to prevent fading of the finish.
• Temperature and Humidity: Maintain a stable room temperature and humidity level to prevent warping or cracking.
• Moving: When moving the cabinet, always lift it rather than dragging it to prevent damage to the base and floor.
• Safety Bracket: Periodically check the wall anchor for tightness and re-secure if necessary.

Troubleshooting

Most issues with your cabinet can be resolved with simple adjustments. If you encounter problems, please refer to the following common solutions:

• Wobbly Cabinet:

  Ensure all cam locks and screws are tightened. Verify the cabinet is on a level surface. Adjust leg levelers if present.

• Doors Not Aligning:

  Check hinge adjustments. Most hinges allow for minor adjustments to align doors vertically, horizontally, and in depth. Refer to the detailed assembly instructions for hinge adjustment specifics.

• Shelves Not Sitting Level:

  Ensure shelf pins are fully inserted into the pre-drilled holes and are at the same height on both sides.

If problems persist, please contact customer support.
