I have a few cabinets that no longer function properly. First of all, a kitchen cabinet under the counter, the suspension of which is broken, so that the door does not close properly. In addition, a door with a mirror of the wardrobe in the bedroom, the suspension of which is also broken, so that the door no longer functions. And the rod for hanging clothes of the same cabinet has collapsed.
