5. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your bathroom vanity.

5.1 Water Leaks:

• Issue: Water leaking from faucet or drain connections.
  Solution: Check all plumbing connections for tightness. Ensure Teflon tape or plumber's putty was used correctly during faucet and drain installation. If leaks persist, consult a qualified plumber.

5.2 Cabinet Doors Not Closing Properly:

• Issue: Cabinet doors are misaligned or do not close smoothly.
  Solution: The soft-closing hinges are typically adjustable. Refer to the hinge manufacturer's instructions for adjustment procedures to correct alignment. Ensure no obstructions are preventing the doors from closing.

5.3 Slow Drainage:

• Issue: Water drains slowly from the basin.
  Solution: Check the drain stopper for any debris or hair accumulation. Clean the P-trap if necessary. Ensure the drain assembly is not overtightened, which can restrict water flow.
