Whether the installation of stainless steel toilet brush cabinet is worry free depends entirely on the wall foundation and manual dexterity. Experienced installers understand that relying on the wall is the key to success, and relying on people's strength is the key. The pain points are as follows:
1、 Nail free adhesive version: novice trap
Fake solidity, real sinkhole: Merchants boast of "stability with just one stick", but in reality, smooth tiles barely last for a week. Encountering old wall paint or diatomaceous earth, with a loud bang in the middle of the night, the cabinet falls and brushes away, leaving scars after three days of offset printing.
Removing glue is like scraping bones: Do you want to change positions? The residual adhesive stuck to the dog skin plaster, the blade scraped hard with sparks and ceramic tile debris, and finally the wall turned into a pockmarked face.
2、 Punched version: Wall touchstone
Ceramic tile assassin: ordinary drill bit hitting ceramic tiles? The porcelain cracks in minutes (the cracks hide dirt and turn into black lines). I have to slowly grind the glass drill bit with water and shake my hand until the end of the play.
Hollow wall buried with lightning: Developers cut corners and use inferior materials to create empty walls, and expansion screws cannot withstand the pressure. The cabinet door opened and closed three times, and the screws and wall coverings loosened, leaving only holes for air leakage.
3、 Folding Door Cabinet: Leveling Hell
Articulation Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: Cabinet door skewed card brush? Adjust a screw to pull the whole body, loosen the left and right door hooks, and tighten the upper and lower door hooks. Half an hour of sewing, sweating profusely, and finally leaving a diagonal seam to swallow the dust.
Uneven ground is even more extreme: Is the floor standing model suspended on all four legs? Paper pads will rot when exposed to water, and wooden blocks will attract cockroaches. Shaking leisurely like walking on stilts, brushing heavy loads and jumping directly onto the street.
