What types of surfaces can I mount these hooks on?

Can I hang very heavy items like a bicycle?

Troubleshooting
Hook feels loose after installation
Ensure the fixing screws are fully tightened. If mounting on drywall, confirm screws are anchored into a wall stud or use appropriate heavy-duty drywall anchors not included. Re-evaluate anchor suitability for wall type.
Hook is not holding the expected weight
Verify that the hook is mounted into a solid wall structure like a stud. Check that the weight is distributed evenly and does not exceed the 30kg limit per hook. For heavier items, use multiple hooks in conjunction.
Rust or corrosion appearing on the hook
While coated, prolonged exposure to harsh elements may cause minor surface corrosion. Clean gently with a damp cloth. For significant corrosion, consider reapplying a suitable anti-corrosive paint or sealant.
Difficulty drilling into the wall
Ensure you are using the correct drill bit for your wall material. If drilling into concrete or very hard surfaces, a hammer drill may be necessary. Always follow safety precautions when drilling.
