8. Troubleshooting
Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Doors/Drawer not closing softly | Soft-close mechanism obstructed or misaligned. | Check for obstructions. Adjust hinges or drawer slides if necessary. Consult a professional if the mechanism is damaged. |
| Drawer sticking or difficult to open/close | Drawer slides are dirty, damaged, or misaligned. | Clean drawer slides. Check for bent or damaged slides and replace if needed. Ensure the drawer is properly seated on the slides. |
