Product Information
Full details
The Albany Shoe Cabinet by Actona is an ideal storage solution for individuals living in apartments or homes with limited entryway space. Its primary benefit is a slim, space-saving design that effectively organizes footwear while maintaining a sophisticated, modern aesthetic with its smoked oak finish. One caveat to note is that its shallow depth of 170mm is specifically engineered for a sleek profile, which may limit the storage of bulkier high-top boots or oversized footwear.

FAQs
What are the exact dimensions of the unit?
The Albany Shoe Cabinet measures 716mm in width, 430mm in height, and 170mm in depth.
Can this be used as a standalone floor unit without mounting?
The cabinet is specifically designed for wall mounting to ensure stability and safety. It should always be secured to a wall.
What material is the cabinet made from?
It is constructed from high-quality melamine, known for its durability and ease of cleaning.
Will large boots fit inside this cabinet?
Due to its slim 170mm depth, it is primarily designed for standard footwear. Bulkier high-top boots may not fit comfortably.
Is the wood finish real oak or a laminate?
It features a sophisticated smoked oak effect achieved through a durable melamine finish.
Troubleshooting
The cabinet feels loose against the wall
Check the wall-mounting screws and re-tighten them. Ensure you are using the correct wall anchors for your specific wall type (e.g., masonry vs. drywall).
Surface marks or scuffs appear on the melamine
Use a slightly damp cloth with mild soapy water. Wipe gently and follow with a dry, soft cloth to prevent moisture buildup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires basic tools to mount the cabinet securely to the wall to ensure safety. Given its slim design, ensure you are anchoring it into a solid wall structure. For daily maintenance, simply wipe the melamine surface with a damp, soft cloth to remove dust or light marks. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can damage the textured laminate finish. Check the wall fixings periodically to ensure the cabinet remains tightly secured as the seasons change or if you notice any slight movement.
