FAQs

What is the Flexi-Fix™ system?

Flexi-Fix™ is Croydex's patented system that offers a 'no-drills' solution for installing bathroom accessories. It allows you to either screw fix using existing or new holes, or glue fix using a high-strength adhesive, making installation versatile and less messy.

Can I use my own adhesive if I choose the glue-fix option?

While the shelf comes with high-strength adhesive, it's recommended to use the provided adhesive for optimal results, as it's tested for compatibility and strength with the product and typical bathroom conditions. Using alternative adhesives may affect performance and warranty.

What is the weight limit for this shelf?

The product information does not specify a precise weight limit. However, for optimal stability and safety, it's recommended to distribute weight evenly and avoid overloading, especially when using the glue-fix method. Ensure it is securely fitted before placing items on it.

How do I clean the toughened glass shelf?

Clean the glass with a soft, damp cloth and mild, non-abrasive cleaning solutions. Dry thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth to prevent water spots and maintain the finish.

What material is the shelf made from?

The shelf itself is made from toughened glass. The supporting bracket and hinges are constructed from zinc alloy with a chrome-plated finish.

Is this shelf suitable for a wet room environment?

Yes, the zinc alloy with chrome plating and toughened glass are designed for bathroom environments, including areas with high humidity. Ensure the fixing method is robust and appropriate for the specific wall surface in a wet room.

Do I need any special tools for installation?

For screw fixing, you will need basic tools like a screwdriver and potentially a drill if creating new holes. For glue fixing, no additional tools are typically required beyond ensuring the surface is clean.

Troubleshooting

Shelf feels unstable after installation

If screw-fixed, ensure screws are tightened securely into wall anchors. If glue-fixed, verify the adhesive has fully cured and the surface was properly prepared (clean, dry, smooth). Check if the shelf is correctly seated on its bracket.

Adhesive not sticking properly

Ensure the wall surface is completely clean, dry, and free from grease or dust. Reapply the adhesive, ensuring even pressure during the curing period as per instructions. Avoid areas with high humidity during application.

Chrome finish shows signs of tarnishing

Clean the finish immediately with a soft, damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners. For persistent spots, use a specific chrome cleaner designed for bathroom fixtures.

Difficulty aligning mounting bracket

Double-check measurements and ensure you are using a spirit level if screw-fixing. For glue-fixing, mark the position lightly with a pencil before applying adhesive.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers dual installation options (screw or glue) for maximum convenience.
  • Stylish Art Deco design complements vintage and classic bathroom decor.
  • Durable construction with toughened glass and chrome-plated zinc alloy.
  • Simple and stress-free 'no-drills' fitting system.
  • Includes all necessary fixings for immediate installation.

Cons

  • Glue fixing requires a suitable, clean surface for optimal adhesion.
  • The shelf's weight capacity may be limited, especially with glue fixing.
  • Reliance on specific Croydex adhesive if re-sticking is needed.
  • Detailed aesthetic might not suit ultra-modern bathroom designs.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup Instructions:

  1. Choose your fixing method: Decide whether to screw fix or glue fix.
  2. For Screw Fixing: Identify existing holes or drill new ones suitable for the provided screws. Attach the mounting bracket to the wall.
  3. For Glue Fixing: Ensure the wall surface is clean, dry, and smooth. Apply the high-strength adhesive to the mounting bracket and press firmly onto the wall. Allow the adhesive to cure fully according to manufacturer instructions before proceeding.
  4. Attach the Shelf: Once the bracket is securely in place, slide or clip the glass shelf onto the bracket as per the design.

Compatibility:

The Flexi-Fix™ system is designed to work on most standard bathroom surfaces. For glue fixing, it is best suited for smooth, non-porous surfaces like tiles, glass, or finished metal. Screw fixing is compatible with most wall types where appropriate fixings can be used.

Care Instructions:

  • Clean the glass shelf regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could scratch the glass or damage the chrome finish.
  • For the chrome-plated parts, use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner and dry with a soft cloth.
  • Periodically check the security of the fixing, especially if screw-fixed, to ensure it remains stable.
