What does this mean?

Thank you for submitting your item for appraisal. This appears to be a chinese desk, most likely dating to the 1920s, bearing three chinese letters on each door :任若籣 and 邦護爾. The correct translation poses a problem, something about an office and protection. The estimate is based on similar desks of the same period sold at auction. Prices in the trade are usually higher and can vary.
