Troubleshooting
Lid does not close smoothly
Check for any obstructions preventing the lid from closing. Ensure the hydraulic pistons are correctly aligned and free of debris. Do not force the lid.
Water ingress inside the box
Verify that the lid is fully closed and latched. Check seals around the lid for any damage or gaps. Ensure the box is positioned on a level surface to prevent pooling.
Lockable lid mechanism seems stiff
Ensure you are using a compatible padlock. Try gently wiggling the padlock as you insert or remove it. Clean any visible debris from the lock mechanism.
Product appears faded after prolonged sun exposure
While designed for outdoor use, prolonged extreme UV exposure can cause fading over time. Regular cleaning with a mild, non-abrasive cleaner may help maintain appearance. Consider placing the box in a partially shaded area if fading is a concern.
