FAQs
What material is the file cabinet made from?
The file cabinet is constructed from high-quality MDF (Medium-Density Fibreboard).
What are the dimensions of the drawers?
The inner dimensions of each drawer are approximately 31cm in length, 37cm in depth, and 7.2cm in height.
Does the cabinet come fully assembled?
No, the cabinet requires assembly. All necessary hardware and fittings are included.
Can the wheels be removed if I don't want to move the cabinet?
The wheels are designed to be attached during assembly. While theoretically removable, it is not recommended as it would change the cabinet's overall design and base support.
What is the weight capacity of each drawer?
Each drawer has a maximum load capacity of 10 kg.
Is the white finish prone to scratching?
Like most MDF furniture with a finish, the white surface can be scratched if subjected to sharp objects or excessive abrasion. Using care and protective mats can help maintain its condition.
What is the overall warranty period for this product?
Please refer to the retailer's specific warranty information for details, as warranty periods can vary.
Troubleshooting
Cabinet is wobbly
Ensure all screws are tightened securely. Check that the wheels are properly attached and that the surface it's placed on is level. If the wobble persists, ensure the locking brakes on the wheels are engaged.
Drawers do not slide smoothly
Check for any obstructions inside the drawer runners. Ensure the cabinet is on a level surface. If new, the runners may need a short break-in period.
Assembly instructions are unclear
Refer to the visual diagrams provided in the manual. If a step remains confusing, consider searching online for video assembly guides for similar HOMCOM products.
White surface shows marks easily
Clean immediately with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Use coasters or mats on the top surface to protect against scratches or spills.
