- Wall Mounting: Always mount the cabinet to the wall using the pre-drilled holes and provided hardware for stability. This prevents tipping, especially in households with children or in areas prone to seismic activity.

Operating Instructions
Opening and Closing Doors
Use the metal external handles to open and close the doors. The magnetic closures help keep the doors shut when unlocked, providing a quiet operation.
Locking and Unlocking
Insert one of the two provided keys into the lock on the right door and turn it to engage or disengage the three-point locking mechanism. Ensure the doors are fully closed before locking.
Adjusting Shelves
To adjust a shelf, first remove all items from it. Lift the shelf slightly and remove the four shelf clips from their slots. Reinsert the clips into the desired slots at the new height, ensuring they are level, then carefully replace the shelf.
Maintenance
Cleaning
Wipe the cabinet surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the environmentally friendly powder-coated finish and compromise its moisture-proof and rust-resistant properties.
Inspection
Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight. Inspect the locking mechanism for smooth operation and lubricate if necessary. Ensure the adjustable feet are stable and level.
Load Capacity
Adhere strictly to the maximum load capacity of 180 lbs per shelf and a total cabinet capacity of 720 lbs. Overloading can lead to structural damage and potential safety hazards.
