Home Safety Advice

It is recommended that two people fit the cabinet to ensure that it is fitted safely.
Always take care when using an electric drill, particularly in the bathroom. Always check for hidden

cables and pipework before drilling and take extreme care if there is any water in the working area.
It is advisable to use a residual current circuit breaker (RCCB).
Always wear suitable eye protection when drilling.
If the product is to be fitted on a ceramic tiled wall, a ceramic dr ill bit should be used. Al ways ensure

that the drill hole passes through the central tiled area rather than through the grouted area. To
prevent surface damage to the tile, mask the area around the hole with tape before drilling.

Do not strike the product with hard or sharp objects.
Do not overload the cabinet. Maximum safe working load is 15kg evenly distributed if mounted on to

a solid wall. If mounted on to a cavity wall reduce the load to 10kg evenly distributed.
