FAQs

What material is the hook made from?

The hook is forged from durable cast iron.

Can I use this hook in my bathroom?

No, this product is not suitable for bathrooms or any damp or unheated rooms due to the nature of cast iron, which is prone to rusting.

How do I prevent the hook from rusting?

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

What are the dimensions of the hook?

The dimensions are approximately 50mm x 115mm. Please note that measurements are approximate as the product is handmade.

What is included with the hook?

The product comes with screw fixings for installation.

Can I use a power drill to install the screws?

No, do not use a power screwdriver or drill. Pilot holes must be drilled, and screws should be tightened by hand to prevent shearing.

What is the benefit of the embossed number?

The embossed numerical decoration allows for easy designation of different hooks to different people, enhancing organization and efficiency.

Troubleshooting

Screw shearing during installation

Ensure a pilot hole is drilled before inserting the screw. Tighten screws by hand only and do not use power tools.

Visible rust marks

Regularly apply household wax polish to the cast iron surface to create a protective barrier. Clean off any existing rust with a soft cloth and reapply polish.

Hook feels loose after installation

Check if the pilot hole was adequately sized for the screw. Ensure screws are tightened firmly by hand. For persistent looseness, consider using wall anchors appropriate for your wall type.

Product is not suitable for intended location (e.g., bathroom)

Relocate the hook to a suitable dry environment like a hallway, bedroom, or cloakroom. Avoid areas with high humidity or moisture.
