4. Assembly Instructions
The HOMIDEC Portable Shelf System is designed for quick and easy assembly. Follow these steps carefully to ensure a stable and functional unit.
4.1. Preparation
- Clear a spacious, flat, and clean area for assembly.
- Unpack all components and verify against the "Package Contents" list.
- Familiarize yourself with the different panel sizes and connectors.
4.2. Basic Cube Assembly
- Connect Panels to Connectors: Take an ABS connector and insert the corners of the PP plastic panels firmly into the slots of the connector. Ensure the panels are fully seated. Use the included mallet to gently tap the panels into place if needed, ensuring a snug fit.
- Form a Cube: Continue connecting panels to form a cube structure. Each cube typically requires 6 panels (top, bottom, 4 sides) and 8 connectors.
- Attach Doors (Optional): If adding a door, attach the door connectors to the appropriate slots on the cube frame. Then, attach the door panel. Ensure the door magnets are installed to allow the door to close securely.

4.3. Expanding the Structure
- Modular Assembly: You can assemble the cubes into a large, multi-tiered cabinet or create smaller, separate blocks to fit different spaces. Connect additional panels and connectors to expand the structure horizontally and vertically.
- Adding Clothes Rails: For sections intended for hanging clothes, insert the hanging rails into the designated slots on the connectors or panels within the cube. Ensure they are securely seated.
- Foot Connections: Attach the ABS foot connectors to the bottom-most panels to raise the wardrobe, providing stability and protection against moisture.

4.4. Wall Anchoring (Recommended)
For maximum stability and safety, especially if the unit is tall or in an area with potential for tipping, use the provided anti-rewind (wall anchors) to secure the cabinet to a wall. Follow the instructions included with the wall anchoring kit.
5. Operating Instructions
Using your HOMIDEC Portable Shelf System is straightforward once assembled.
- Storage: Utilize the individual cubes for folded clothes, books, toys, or other household items. The deeper 45cm cubes are ideal for bulkier items.
- Hanging Clothes: Use the installed clothes rails for hanging shirts, dresses, jackets, or other garments. Distribute weight evenly across the rails.
- Door Functionality: The doors are designed to keep contents dust-free. Ensure they close completely using the integrated magnets.
- Weight Distribution: Always distribute the weight of stored items evenly across the shelves and hanging rails. Avoid placing heavy items exclusively on upper shelves without proper wall anchoring.

6. Maintenance and Care
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your HOMIDEC Portable Shelf System, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: The PP plastic panels are waterproof, moisture-resistant, mildew resistant, and dust-repellent. Clean the surfaces with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the plastic.
- Dusting: Regularly dust the exterior and interior of the cubes to prevent dust accumulation.
- Inspection: Periodically check all connectors to ensure they remain securely fastened. Re-tap with the mallet if any connections feel loose.
- Moisture: While the panels are moisture-resistant, avoid prolonged exposure to excessive moisture or direct water to prevent potential damage or mildew growth in contents.
