7. Maintenance

Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your Tangkula Corner Medicine Cabinet.

• Cleaning the Mirror: Use a soft, lint-free cloth and a standard glass cleaner. Spray the cleaner onto the cloth, not directly onto the mirror, to avoid liquid seeping into the edges.
• Cleaning the Cabinet: Wipe surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the engineered wood finish.
• Hinge Care: The soft-close hinges are designed for durability. If they become stiff or noisy, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied, but typically they require no maintenance.
• Regular Inspection: Periodically check all mounting screws and connections to ensure they remain tight and secure. Retighten if necessary.

8. Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter.

8.1. Cabinet Feels Unstable After Installation

• Check Mounting Screws: Ensure all wall-mounting screws are fully tightened.
• Wall Anchors: Verify that appropriate wall anchors were used for your wall type (e.g., drywall anchors for drywall).
• Overloading: Ensure the cabinet is not overloaded beyond its weight capacity (17.5 lbs per shelf). Distribute weight evenly.

8.2. Door Does Not Close Smoothly

• Hinge Alignment: Check if the hinges are properly aligned and tightened. Refer to the assembly instructions for hinge adjustment.
• Obstruction: Ensure nothing inside the cabinet is obstructing the door's path.
