Although steel cabinets are known for their excellent durability and easy maintenance, proper daily cleaning and care should not be overlooked. Here are some practical tips for maintaining and cleaning your steel cabinet products.

I. Daily Cleaning and Maintenance

1. Place steel cabinets on a flat surface. It’s best to use soft pads under the legs to prevent floor damage when moving.
   
2. Avoid contact with sharp or pointed objects to prevent surface scratches.
   
3. Wipe the surface regularly with a clean, soft cloth to remove dust and keep it clean.
   
4. For routine cleaning, use a clean, soft cloth to gently wipe away dust and stains. Use a vacuum cleaner to clean hard-to-reach corners, such as joints and bends. Do not use wet cloths, hard materials, or chemical agents (acidic or alkaline), which may damage the surface and shorten its lifespan.
   
5. Schedule regular maintenance—generally once every quarter. Wipe down the surface thoroughly with a clean, dry cloth.
   
6. Do not place heavy or miscellaneous items on top of tall steel products like file cabinets or lockers, as it can cause deformation or pose a safety risk.
   
7. Avoid placing high-temperature items directly on the cabinet surface, which could affect its appearance and quality.
   
8. Keep away from acidic or alkaline chemicals, which can corrode the surface. While steel is water-resistant, it is sensitive to strong acids and bases.
   

II. Handling and Storage

1. Handle steel cabinets (file cabinets, lockers, drawer cabinets, etc.) with care during transport. Avoid tilting or inverting them.
   
2. For assembly and disassembly, rely on professional technicians. When reinstalling, make sure to adjust the cabinet legs, doors, and drawers to ensure proper function.
   
3. Store steel cabinets in a dry and well-ventilated place to avoid moisture damage. Protect corners during storage to prevent dents or damage from impacts.
