How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Remove bottles before working on shelves to prevent breakage.
Steps to improve shelf movement:
- 1. Remove and inspect shelves: Check for warping, cracks, or bent metal rails.
- 2. Clean glides: Wipe rails and glides with a damp cloth and mild detergent to remove sticky residue.
- 3. Do not lubricate with oil: Avoid petroleum-based lubricants that can attract dust. If needed, use a dry silicone spray sparingly.
- 4. Replace damaged components: Install new shelf assemblies or rails if they are bent or warped.
