1. It is best to distinguish the interior of the shoe cabinet based on family members and divide it into areas for men, women, children, etc. It can also be used frequently or infrequently, and internal partitions should be set according to the size of the shoes.
2. Smaller units can use shoe cabinets hanging on the wall. Large units can be equipped with double doors, high ceilings, and fully functional shoe cabinets, and can also be separately equipped with shoe stools, decorative items, etc. If the house is raised above 2.7 meters, a higher shoe cabinet can also be chosen.
3. It is best to use louvered doors to prevent odors, and each compartment inside the cabinet should not be nailed down, with multiple different heights reserved for freedom and flexibility.
4. Attention should be paid to the selection of boards and paints to avoid air and other pollution.
maintenance
1. Use a clean soft cloth to regularly wipe the dust stains on the surface of the shoe cabinet. Avoid using ordinary water, damp cloth, or hard cloth to wipe the surface, mirror, and glass. Avoid contact with acidic, alkaline, and oily substances. If conditions permit, high-purity industrial alcohol can be used to wipe the surface of the board.
2. Do not use hard objects such as hammers to strike the surface of the shoe cabinet, and do not use knives to scratch or cut on the surface. If local cracks are found in the veneer, they should be repaired in a timely manner, otherwise over time, the cracks will widen and even bend, leading to complete damage.
3. When removing stains from the mirror or glass surface of the shoe cabinet, specialized cleaning agents should be used for cleaning.
4. Regularly maintain the shoe cabinet, usually with a focus on quarterly maintenance. After wiping the dust stains on the furniture surface with a soft cloth, evenly apply wax to the furniture surface. Light wax has a protective effect on furniture paint film from moisture, scratches, and burns.
5. For stains that have remained for too long or are difficult to remove, a cotton cloth dipped in a small amount of gasoline or alcohol can be used to remove them. Then, a piece of cotton cloth can be used to apply an appropriate amount of polishing wax, and a dry cloth can be used to evenly wipe the wax in sections to avoid leaving wax marks. Finally, the damaged areas of the paint layer can be treated; If the area burnt by cigarettes is limited to the surface paint layer, you can use fine sandpaper dipped in water to gently polish the shoe cabinet to remove stains, and then wax it; If the surface scratch is not deep enough to reach the wood, it can be directly polished locally with polishing wax. For deeper scratches, sandpaper should be used for polishing; If the damage has penetrated deep into the wood, it should be polished and repainted to make the furniture surface shiny, durable, and moisture-proof. The metal handles of furniture hardware accessories can also be coated with gloss wax and wiped clean to make them rotate flexibly and rust and oxygen resistant.
