Setup, Compatibility & Care
Assembly should be performed on a clean, flat surface to prevent scratching the finish. Ensure all metal-to-metal fixings are tightened securely during the initial setup to maintain structural rigidity. To maintain the appearance of the bookcase, wipe down surfaces periodically with a soft, damp cloth; avoid harsh chemical cleaners that could degrade the stain-resistant finish. When loading, distribute weight evenly across the shelves to avoid sagging over extended periods. Always ensure the unit is placed on a stable surface and, if required by office safety protocols, secure the top of the unit to the wall using appropriate brackets.
