Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the metal frame and engineered wood top with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals. For fabric drawers, spot clean with a mild detergent and allow to air dry.
- Drawer Care: Do not overload drawers. Ensure items are distributed evenly to prevent deformation of the fabric.
- Stability Check: Periodically check all screws and fasteners to ensure they remain tight. If using adjustable feet, ensure they are properly leveled.

Troubleshooting
- Cabinet is Unstable: If the cabinet wobbles, ensure all frame connections are tightened. If using adjustable feet, adjust each foot until the cabinet is level and stable on the floor. If using casters, ensure they are locked when stationary.
- Drawers are Difficult to Open/Close: Check for obstructions inside the drawer or along the drawer slides. Ensure the drawer is properly aligned within the frame.
- Files do not fit properly: This cabinet is designed for Letter and A4 size files. Ensure files are oriented correctly within the drawer.
