Once all shelves are in place, gently stand the shoe rack upright. Systematically tighten all eight screws (C) using the hex key (D) until the rack is stable and firm. Do not overtighten.
Optional: Expanding or Stacking Units
If you have multiple Simple Trending shoe racks, you can connect them horizontally or stack them vertically. For horizontal expansion, align units side-by-side. For vertical stacking, remove the top U-shaped handles from the bottom unit and align the bottom of the top unit with the top of the bottom unit, securing with screws if applicable (refer to specific instructions for multi-unit assembly if provided with additional hardware).

5. Maintenance and Care
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your shoe rack, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the metal frame and wire shelves with a dry cloth regularly to remove dust and dirt. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as they may damage the powder-coated finish.
- Inspection: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary to maintain stability.
- Placement: Avoid placing the shoe rack in excessively damp or humid environments to prevent potential rust, although the powder-coated finish offers strong corrosion resistance.
