6. Maintenance and Care
Proper maintenance will extend the life of your bunk bed.

7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues during assembly or use, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Missing parts or hardware | Packaging error or lost during transit. | Verify against the components list. Contact customer support immediately for replacements. |
| Holes do not align during assembly | Minor manufacturing variance or incorrect orientation of parts. | Ensure parts are oriented correctly. Loosen adjacent bolts slightly to allow for adjustment, then retighten. If necessary, a drill may be used carefully to widen or create pilot holes, but this should be a last resort. |
| Bed feels wobbly after assembly | Bolts are not fully tightened. | Systematically check and tighten all bolts and fasteners throughout the entire structure. |
| Drawers do not slide smoothly | Obstruction or misalignment. | Check for any objects obstructing the drawer path. Ensure drawers are assembled correctly and aligned within their runners. |
