2.1 Unpacking
Carefully unpack all components from the packaging. Inspect for any damage during transit. Keep all packaging materials until assembly is complete to ensure no small parts are discarded.
2.2 Tools Required
Standard household tools are typically required for assembly, including a screwdriver, hammer, measuring tape, and a level. Depending on your wall type, a drill and appropriate wall plugs/screws may be necessary for secure wall mounting.

Assembly of the GODMORGON mirror cabinet is required. Detailed step-by-step instructions are included in the product package. For additional guidance or digital copies, please refer to the official Ikea website or contact customer support.
Important: Ensure the cabinet is securely mounted to the wall using appropriate fasteners for your wall material. Improper installation can lead to the cabinet falling and causing injury or damage.
3. Operating the Cabinet
3.1 Opening and Closing Doors
The cabinet features two mirror doors designed for smooth operation. The doors are equipped with soft-closing hinges, ensuring they close gently and silently during the final centimeters of movement. To open, gently pull the door. To close, push the door until the soft-closing mechanism engages.

The tempered glass shelf inside the cabinet is adjustable. To change its height, carefully lift the shelf, remove the shelf pins from their current holes, reposition them to the desired height, and then place the shelf back onto the pins. Ensure the shelf is level and securely seated before placing items on it.

4. Maintenance and Care
4.1 Cleaning the Cabinet
- Glass Surfaces: Wipe mirrors and glass shelves with a damp cloth and a mild glass cleaner. Dry immediately with a clean, lint-free cloth to prevent streaks. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
