Serious or fatal crushing injuries can occur from furniture tipping over. To prevent this furniture from tipping over it must be permanently fixed to the wall. Wall fixing screws are not included, since different wall materials require different types of screws/fixings. Please ensure you use the correct screws/fixings for your type of walls and seek professional advice if you are not sure.
Failure of the product due to incorrect fixings is the responsibility of the installer.
Important: When drilling into the walls always check that there are no hidden wires or pipes etc.
Types of wallsYou can use one of the following types of wall plugs if your walls are made of brick, breezeblock, concrete, stone or wood.
- General-Purpose wall plugGenerally, aerated blocks should not be used to support heavy loads, use a specialist fitting in this case. For light loads, general-purpose wall plugs can be used.
- Plasterboard wall plugFor use when attaching light loads to plasterboard partitions.
- Cavity Fixing wall plugFor use with plasterboard partitions or hollow wooden doors.
- Cavity Fixing – Heavy Duty wall plugFor use when fitting or supporting heavy loads such as shelving, wall cabinets, and coat racks.

Warnings specifically for any product containing glassIf the glass is chipped or broken stop using the product and consult the manufacturer or supplier.
Tempered glass is designed to break into very small fragments for customer safety. On very rare occasions including when not in direct use, glass can break for the following reasons:
– Surface damage and scratches (protect the surface with mats during use). Please take extra care to ensure no heavy or sharp objects impact this product.– Extremes of temperature. Avoid areas where the item can become very hot and cold.
WARNING:a) Do not place very hot or very cold items directly on glass surfaces.b) Do not sit or stand on glass surfaces.c) Do not strike the glass with hard or pointed items, or use the glass as a chopping surface.d) Do not use washing powders or any other substances containing abrasives, as these may scratch the glass.
Additional Requirements for tablesHandle with care! A damaged edge or scratched surface can in rare cases cause the glass to fail unexpectedly into many small pieces. Glass is most vulnerable when struck from the side.
Care InstructionsWood FurnitureWood displays different grain patterns depending on which way they cut – for example, the `medullary ray’ which can appear on oak furniture is a mark of good quality timber – these are just characteristics of the natural beauty of the wood. Some furniture is also deliberately aged and rustic.
All timber surfaces will change color and mellow over time. New furniture will initially vary in shade from items that have been previously purchased.
How to care for your wood or painted furnitureFurniture with a hard lacquer, the painted surface should be dusted with a dry cloth.Make sure all surfaces are protected from heat and liquids by mats and coasters. Wipe up spills immediately and ensure that a mat or pad is placed under paper if you are writing.
Our furniture will endure most temperatures in the home but it is best to avoid placing furniture next to heat sources such as radiators or fires. Be particularly careful with solid wood as the lack of humidity caused by central heating can cause damage such as warping.
GlassUse glass cleaner or soapy water for cleaning, do not use anything abrasive as this may damage the surface of the product. Protect surfaces from scratches and marks by using mats and coasters.
MetalDo not use any abrasive cleaner or harsh detergent as this can damage the surface.
