FAQs

1. How can I prevent my shoe cabinet from wobbling?

Check that all legs are firmly tightened and the cabinet is on a level surface. Use wall anchors for added stability if it still wobbles. Small rubber pads under legs can also absorb uneven floor pressure.

2. What’s the best way to adjust misaligned doors?

Loosen the hinge screws slightly and realign the doors visually. Tighten screws gradually while keeping the door level. Repeat until doors open and close smoothly without gaps.

3. How do I stop shoes from slipping inside the shelves?

Use non-slip liners or shelf mats to create friction. Keep heavier shoes on lower shelves to prevent tipping. Adjust shelf height so shoes fit snugly without crowding.

4. How can I maintain the cabinet finish?

Regularly dust with a soft, dry cloth to prevent buildup. Wipe spills immediately with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh cleaners or abrasive scrubbing to prevent scratches.

5. What should I do if a screw or hinge comes loose?

Retighten loose screws promptly with the correct screwdriver. Replace stripped screws with slightly larger ones if necessary. Periodically check all hardware to maintain safety and stability.
