- Heat and Moisture: Avoid placing hot items directly on the surface. Use coasters or protective pads. Protect the cabinet from excessive moisture and direct sunlight.
- Regular Checks: Periodically check all hardware connections (screws, hinges, drawer slides) and tighten if necessary to ensure stability.
