FAQs

What tools are required for assembly?

Typically, you will need a hammer or mallet, and possibly a screwdriver for attaching the door hinges. A tape measure and spirit level are recommended for installation.

Are door handles included?

No, door handles, plinths, panels, and other accessories are sold separately. You can choose handles that match your preferred style.

Can the door be hinged on either side?

Yes, the cabinet features reversible doors, allowing you to choose whether to hinge the door on the left or right side to suit your kitchen layout.

How much weight can the cabinet support?

The product information does not specify a maximum weight capacity. However, it is constructed from sturdy 18mm MFC, designed for typical kitchen storage needs. Ensure even distribution of weight.

What is the purpose of the rear service void?

The 49mm rear service void provides space to conceal pipes, wiring, and other connections, helping to maintain a clean and tidy appearance behind the cabinet.

How do I clean the cabinet finish?

Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals. A mild detergent can be used for stubborn marks, followed by drying.

What are the dimensions of the adjustable legs?

The adjustable legs are 150mm in height, allowing for significant adjustment to achieve stability on uneven floors.

Troubleshooting

Cabinet door not closing properly

Check if the cabinet is level using the adjustable legs. Ensure the hinges are correctly aligned and tightened. Verify that nothing is obstructing the door's path.

Cam locks are not tightening

Ensure the dowels are fully inserted into their respective holes. Check that the cam is correctly oriented to engage with the cam bolt head. Do not overtighten.

Cabinet feels unstable

Fully extend and adjust the four adjustable legs to their maximum stable height. Ensure all cam locks are securely tightened. For additional stability, consider securing the cabinet to adjacent units or the wall as per local building regulations.

Soft-close mechanism not working

Inspect the hinge for any visible damage or obstructions. Ensure the door is correctly seated on the hinges. Some hinges may have minor adjustment screws; consult the hinge manufacturer's details if provided.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The cabinet arrives flat-packed. Ensure you have a clear workspace. You will need a hammer or mallet and possibly a screwdriver (depending on hinge type). Follow the provided instructions to insert dowels, apply glue (if recommended), and secure the cam locks. Attach the door hinges to the cabinet and the door, then mount the door. Finally, attach the adjustable legs and position the cabinet, adjusting the legs to ensure it is level and stable.

Compatibility: This cabinet is designed to integrate with other Kitchen Kit components and standard kitchen accessories. Door handles, plinths, and decorative panels are sold separately and are typically compatible with standard fixings. Ensure any worktop you choose is compatible with base cabinet dimensions. The 49mm rear service void is designed to accommodate standard plumbing and electrical wiring for sinks and appliances.

Care: To maintain the Alby Blue finish, wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the surface. For stubborn marks, a mild detergent can be used, followed by a thorough wipe with a clean, damp cloth and then dried. Ensure the soft-close hinges are kept free of debris to maintain their smooth operation.
