Quoted from Nepi23:
Hi!
For some reason the double-sided tape of the siderail seems not to be too eager to stick to the cabinet side.
The decal on the cabinet does not go all the way up to the cabinet side and the cabinet seems to be quite glossy, so maybe that is the reason the double-sided tape of the siderail does not seem to stick well to the cabinet side.
Is there an easier way to fix this or should one remove the siderail altogether and what should one do with the glossy side of the cabinet that is visible - should one sand it a bit for example?
Thanks for any info!

What type of tape are you using?

Its double-sided tape, they sell it for that purpose, e.g. here:

Not familiar with that tape ..the 3m version listed above is what I've used and is great...I actually use it in a much lesser amount than originally used as it so difficult to remove
