Troubleshooting

Pins do not fit snugly

Verify the pre-drilled hole diameter is exactly 5 mm. If the hole is slightly larger, consider using a shim or a pin with a slightly larger diameter if available.

Shelf is wobbly

Ensure all four pins are fully inserted and that the shelf is seated evenly on all supports. Check for any debris in the pre-drilled holes that might be preventing full insertion.

Pins are difficult to insert

Gently tap the pins with a rubber mallet or the handle of a screwdriver. Ensure the pre-drilled holes are clear of any obstructions or excess material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure your shelving material has pre-drilled holes with a diameter of 5 mm. Insert the 28 mm long pins firmly into these holes. Place the shelf onto the inserted pins, ensuring it rests evenly on all four supports.

Care: To maintain the pins, wipe them with a dry or slightly damp cloth as needed. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the silver finish. Ensure shelves are not overloaded to prevent undue stress on the pins.
