Preparing glass cabinet shelves separately
Loose glass shelves can move inside a display cabinet during transport. Identify removable components before wrapping the cabinet itself.
Before you start
Photograph the dimensions and positions of the shelves. Distinguish fixed glass from removable panels and do not force parts that are not intended to come apart.
Practical steps
- Protect each removed shelf individually and label it with the cabinet and shelf number.
- Keep shelf supports in a sealed small bag instead of leaving them loose inside.
- Show the surveyor the glass doors, mirrors and cabinet body separately.
Checks on arrival
Count shelves and supports on delivery. Check that the supports are correctly seated before replacing the glass, and do not use cracked pieces.
