4. Assembly Instructions
The Letaya Storage Cabinet is designed for straightforward assembly. All necessary installation tools and a detailed instruction guide are provided to assist you. It is recommended to assemble the cabinet on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches.
General Assembly Guidance:

- Follow Steps Sequentially: Adhere strictly to the step-by-step instructions in the included manual. Do not skip steps.

This image highlights important design features such as adjustable shelf buckles for flexible storage, adjustable feet for stability on uneven floors, magnetic door stoppers for secure closure, and a fixing hole for optional wall attachment.
5. Setup and Placement
Once assembled, carefully move the cabinet to its desired location. Consider the following for optimal setup:
- Location: Choose a location with a solid, level floor. Avoid placing the cabinet in areas with excessive moisture or direct sunlight, which could affect the finish over time.
- Leveling: Use the adjustable feet at the base of the cabinet to ensure it is perfectly level. This prevents wobbling and ensures the doors close properly.
- Wall Anchoring: For maximum stability and safety, especially if the cabinet will be heavily loaded or is in a high-traffic area, utilize the pre-drilled holes on the back panel to secure the cabinet to a wall. Use appropriate wall anchors for your wall type (e.g., drywall, concrete).
6. Operation
Adjusting Shelves:
The Letaya Storage Cabinet features 5 adjustable shelves, allowing you to customize the storage space to fit items of various heights. To adjust a shelf:
- Empty the shelf of all contents.
- Locate the adjustable buckles on the side panels.
- Carefully lift the shelf and reposition the buckles into the desired slots. Ensure all four buckles are at the same height to keep the shelf level.
- Gently lower the shelf onto the buckles, ensuring it is securely seated before placing items back on it.
Door Operation:
The cabinet doors are equipped with magnetic devices to ensure they close tightly and securely. Simply push the doors firmly until the magnets engage. To open, pull the doors gently.

7. Care and Maintenance
The Letaya Storage Cabinet is constructed from durable metal with an electrostatic powder-coated finish, making it resistant to corrosion, wear, and water. Regular cleaning will help maintain its appearance and longevity.
- Cleaning: Wipe the cabinet surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish.
- Drying: After cleaning, dry the surfaces thoroughly with a clean, dry cloth to prevent water spots.
- Inspection: Periodically check all fasteners to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary. Inspect the adjustable feet and wall anchors for any signs of wear or loosening.
- Environment: While the cabinet is water-resistant, avoid prolonged exposure to excessive moisture or extreme temperatures to preserve its finish and structural integrity.
