Wood care advise
Wood care advise
Wood is a natural product and each piece is
individual.
As a natural product, wood is affected by
temperature and humidity. We recommend that
you avoid placing the furniture directly in front of
heat sources such as radiators or fires as this can
cause cracking or warping over time.
The colour will mellow over time and new items
can vary in shade from items that you have already
purchased.
Strong direct sunlight can affect the colour
dramatically, so try to avoid this as much as
possible, we also recommend that any ornaments,
coasters and items placed on the product are
periodically moved around to allow the colour to
mellow evenly.
Always use matts and coasters to protect the
surface when placing items on the furniture. This
will help to protect the finish from heat, liquids or
items that might scratch your furniture.
If items are to be placed on the surface of your
furniture and have rubber feet, it is advisable to
use mats to prevent marking.
Always lift your furniture into place, avoid
dragging it across the floor as this can cause
damage to joints.
When placing furniture on a wooden or laminate
floor, please ensure that the plastic or felt
protectors are securely fitted and in place.
Only clean using a damp cloth and mild detergent,
do not use bleach or abrasive cleaners.
From time to time check that there are no loose
screws on this unit.
Remove any spills immediately to avoid staining.
Dust regularly with a soft lint free cloth or duster.
The use of abrasive polish or silicon based polishes is
not advised as these can affect the polished finish and
joints over time.
Uneven floors could give the impression that doors
of wall units and wardrobes are out of alignment.
Be aware of this and compensate if necessary by
adjusting the hinges or packing a corner to level the
item. Please refer to the instructions, included with
your furniture, and adjust accordingly.
If your furniture becomes stained, scratched, chipped
or suffers other damage, we recommend professional
help is sought to restore it. Please contact our
customer services line for recommended agents.
Always follow fitting instructions carefully and retain
them for future use.
Finally, we hope you enjoy your
furniture for many years to come
and thanks again for your
purchase.
