Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your cabinet.

• Stability Issues: If the cabinet feels unstable or wobbly after assembly, ensure all fasteners are tightened securely. For enhanced stability, utilize the included anti-tip device to anchor the cabinet to a wall stud. Avoid overloading shelves, especially the wine rack, to maintain balance.
• Door Alignment: If doors appear uneven or difficult to close, check hinge adjustments. Minor adjustments to hinge screws can often resolve alignment issues. Refer to the assembly manual for detailed hinge adjustment instructions.
• Protective Film Removal from Glass Panels: When removing the protective film from glass panels, use a sharp, thin blade (e.g., a box cutter) along the edges to score the film before peeling. This helps prevent small pieces from tearing and remaining stuck in the frame.
