FAQs
Can I use this rack in my garden shed?
It is not recommended. The MDF shelves are sensitive to moisture, which can cause them to swell or lose structural integrity in damp environments.
Do I need any tools for assembly?
The rack uses a plug-in system, so no tools are required. However, a rubber mallet may be helpful for seating the profiles firmly.
How do I split the unit into two?
The vertical supports are designed to be separated. Simply divide the frame into two equal sections using the included connectors, effectively creating two smaller, independent shelving units.
What is the individual shelf capacity?
Each individual shelf is rated for up to 265 kg when the weight is evenly distributed.
Are the shelf heights adjustable?
Yes, the plug-in system allows you to position the shelves at different intervals depending on your storage needs.
Does the rack need to be anchored to the wall?
While the rack is stable, it is always a best practice to anchor heavy storage units to the wall, especially if they are placed in areas with uneven floors or around children.
Troubleshooting
The unit feels wobbly after assembly.
Ensure all plug-in connections are fully seated into the slots and the floor is level. Check that the protective plastic caps are firmly installed.
Difficulty inserting the metal supports.
Use a rubber mallet to gently tap the pieces into place. Ensure you are not misaligning the tabs with the slots.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Assembly should be performed on a flat, level floor to ensure the plug-in components seat correctly. It is recommended to use a rubber mallet to gently tap the profiles into place if the connection is tight, ensuring you do not damage the finish.
Care Instructions:
- Wipe the metal profiles with a dry or slightly damp cloth to prevent dust buildup.
- Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners on the MDF boards.
- Ensure the room is well-ventilated; avoid placing the unit in damp basements or outdoors where moisture can penetrate the MDF surface.
- Periodically check the stability of the connections if the unit is moved to ensure the plug-in system remains secure.
