Troubleshooting
Drawer is sticking or difficult to open/close.
Ensure the unit is on a level surface. Check for any obstructions within the drawer runners or the drawer itself. Verify that the drawer is not overloaded.
Lock on the top drawer is not engaging.
Ensure the key is fully inserted and turned correctly. Check if the drawer is misaligned or if there is an obstruction preventing the lock mechanism from fully engaging. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
Unit feels unstable.
Confirm that the unit is placed on a flat, solid surface. Check that all panels are securely fastened, especially the back panel.
