FAQs
What material is the hook made from?
The hook is made from mild steel.
How is this hook installed?
It is a drive-in hook, meaning the spike is driven into the mounting surface, typically wood or plasterboard, often with a hammer.
What are the dimensions of the medium size hook?
The medium size hook measures approximately 5.1 cm in height, 0.5 cm in width, and 3.2 cm in depth.
Can I use these hooks for heavy items?
These hooks are best suited for lighter to medium-weight items like mugs, towels, or dressing gowns. For heavier items, a more robust fixing method and hook would be necessary.
How many hooks are included?
The hooks are sold individually, meaning you receive one hook per purchase.
What is the warranty period?
The product comes with a 5-year guarantee.
Can I mix and match different sizes of these hooks?
Yes, the product description mentions they can be used individually or mixed and matched with similar hooks in the same or different sizes to create a feature piece.
Troubleshooting
Hook does not feel secure after installation.
Ensure the drive-in spike has penetrated the surface adequately. If the surface is too soft, consider using a wall anchor (not included) or a different mounting location.
Black finish is scratched or chipped.
Minor scratches may be disguised with a black permanent marker. For significant damage, replacement of the hook is recommended. Avoid using harsh cleaning agents.
Difficulty driving the hook into the surface.
Ensure the surface is suitable for drive-in installation. If resistance is high, check for unseen obstructions. A pilot hole slightly smaller than the spike can sometimes help, but use with caution to avoid damaging the material.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These cup hooks feature a drive-in spike. To install, simply align the spike with the desired mounting surface (such as wood or plasterboard) and gently tap the hook with a hammer until the base is flush with the surface. Ensure the surface is firm enough to support the hook and its intended load.
Compatibility: Suitable for mounting into wood, MDF, or plasterboard. Avoid installing into brittle materials or areas with hidden wiring or plumbing. The hook is designed for lighter to medium-weight items.
Care: To maintain the appearance, wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the black finish. The mild steel construction is robust but can be prone to scratching if subjected to rough handling.
