I'm trying to install my Bestå shelf unit and I'm having trouble with the glass doors. They don't seem to be aligning properly. Are there any specific instructions or tips you can provide for ensuring a secure and smooth fit?

To ensure a secure and smooth fit for the glass doors on your BESTÅ shelf unit, here are a few tips:

1. Check that the hinges are properly installed and adjusted. The hinges should be securely attached to both the door and the frame, and you may need to make minor adjustments to the hinge screws to align the door.

2. Ensure the shelves are level and the frame is square. If the unit is not level or the frame is not square, it can cause the doors to bind or not align properly.

3. Carefully follow the instructions for door installation, paying close attention to the order and orientation of the hinges and door placement.

4. If the doors still don't align after checking the hinges and frame, you may need to adjust the door hinges themselves. There are typically screws or mechanisms on the hinges that allow you to fine-tune the door positioning.

Take your time and make small adjustments until you achieve a smooth, secure fit for the glass doors

I'm interested in installing this shelf unit with glass doors, but I'm concerned about the stability of the unit. Can you please provide more information on the weight capacity and recommended floor type for installation?

The BESTÅ shelf unit with glass doors has a weight capacity of up to 66 lbs (30 kg) per shelf. It is designed to be installed on a level, sturdy floor surface, such as wood, laminate, or tile. For optimal stability, it's recommended to secure the unit to the wall using the included wall-mounting hardware. This will help prevent the unit from tipping over, especially when the shelves are fully loaded. As long as you follow the assembly instructions carefully and secure the unit to the wall, this BESTÅ shelf unit should provide a stable and reliable storage solution

I've got a Besta shelf unit with glass doors in the same dimensions as yours, but I'm having trouble assembling it. Can you please help me figure out how to attach the glass door frames to the shelves? The instructions are a bit unclear and I don't want to damage the glass or the frame.

To attach the glass door frames to the shelves on your BESTÅ shelf unit, follow these steps carefully:

1. Locate the pre-drilled holes on the side panels of the unit where the hinges for the glass doors will attach.
2. Align the hinge plates on the glass door frames with the pre-drilled holes, making sure they are positioned correctly.
3. Secure the hinge plates to the side panels using the screws provided in the hardware pack. Do not overtighten the screws to avoid damaging the glass.
4. Once the hinges are attached, you can hang the glass doors by clicking them into place on the hinge plates.
5. Adjust the door hinges as needed to ensure the doors are properly aligned and close smoothly.

Take your time and double-check each step to avoid any damage to the glass or frame. Let me know if you have any other questions
