3. Re-insert the shelf clips into the desired slots on the cabinet's side panels, ensuring they are at the same height on all four corners.
4. Place the shelf back onto the clips, ensuring it is level and securely seated.

5.2 Locking and Unlocking

The cabinet is equipped with a lock for securing its contents.

• To lock the cabinet: Close both doors completely. Insert one of the provided keys into the lock cylinder and turn it clockwise until the lock mechanism engages. Remove the key.
• To unlock the cabinet: Insert the key into the lock cylinder and turn it counter-clockwise until the lock mechanism disengages. The doors can then be opened.

Keep the spare key in a safe and accessible location separate from the cabinet.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance will help prolong the life and appearance of your BESFUR Metal Storage Cabinet.

• Cleaning: Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the powder-coated finish. Dry thoroughly after cleaning.
• Hardware Check: Periodically check all screws and fasteners to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain stability.
• Lubrication: If the door hinges or lock mechanism become stiff, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant.
• Weight Distribution: Distribute weight evenly across shelves. Avoid placing excessively heavy items on a single point or overloading shelves beyond their 180 lbs capacity.
