FAQs

What material is the hook made of?

The hook is forged from durable cast iron.

What is the warranty period?

This product comes with a 2 Year Warranty.

Can I use this hook in my bathroom?

No, this product is not suitable for bathrooms or unheated/damp rooms due to the risk of rusting.

How do I prevent the hook from rusting?

Regular maintenance with a household wax polish is required to help prevent rusting. Ensure it is installed in a dry environment.

What are the dimensions of the hook?

All measurements provided are approximate as this product is handmade.

Do I need special tools to install it?

You will need a drill for the pilot hole and a screwdriver for hand-tightening. Do not use a power screwdriver or drill.

What does 'dual-pronged' mean?

It means the hook has two points or arms for hanging items, which helps with organisation and space-saving.

Troubleshooting

Screw won't go in or feels stuck.

Ensure a pilot hole was drilled. If the hole is too small, widen it slightly. If the screw head strips, you may need to carefully remove it and try a new screw after re-drilling the pilot hole.

Hook appears to be rusting.

This is expected in damp environments. Immediately clean the rusted area and apply a suitable metal wax polish. Ensure the hook is located in a dry, heated room as per the product's limitations.

Hook is loose on the wall.

The fixings may not be secure. Remove the hook, check the wall plugs (if used) and ensure they are suitable for your wall type. Re-drill pilot holes if necessary and securely tighten screws by hand.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Adds an authentic antique aesthetic to any room.
  • Space-saving dual-pronged design.
  • Durable cast iron construction.
  • Includes necessary screw fixings.

Cons

  • Requires careful installation to avoid material damage.
  • Not suitable for bathrooms or unheated/damp rooms due to rust potential.
  • Requires regular maintenance with wax polish to prevent rusting.
  • Handmade nature means measurements are approximate.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Drill a Pilot Hole: A pilot hole is essential before inserting screws to prevent the cast iron from shearing. Do not skip this step.
  2. Hand Tighten Screws: Use a screwdriver to tighten the screws by hand. Do not use a power screwdriver or drill, as this can strip the screws or damage the hook.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for installation on most wall types capable of supporting the weight of the hook and its intended items.
  • Not suitable for bathrooms or unheated/damp rooms due to the ferrous nature of cast iron, which is prone to rusting.

Care:

  • Cast iron is susceptible to rust. To maintain its appearance and prevent corrosion, regular maintenance with a household wax polish is required.
  • Clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
