Tips for use and installation

Cleaning and hygiene

To clean a vanity unit, regardless of its material, it is recommended to use a damp cloth and mild soap. It is not good to use chlorinated or abrasive products, because they can damage them.

Avoid knocks

When closing the doors or the drawers of a vanity unit, it must be done gently. Bumps and kicks could throw the frames or the shelf structure out of the square. It is best to choose furniture that has soft-close hinges.

To avoid installation problems:

- Check the resistance of your walls before choosing your type of furniture, especially if you want to install one of the suspended types. If your wall is plasterboard, I prefer furniture with legs that reach the floor.


- Before starting the installation or any repair in the bathroom you will have to cut the water supply to the bathroom.
