FAQs

Can I use these brackets in my bathroom?

No. These brackets are made of cast iron, which is a ferrous metal prone to rusting. They are not suitable for high-humidity areas like bathrooms.

Can I use a power drill to install the brackets?

No, you should not use a power drill or power screwdriver. Screws should be tightened by hand to avoid shearing the metal.

Is the measurement exactly 205mm?

Because this product is handmade, all measurements provided are approximate.

How often should I apply wax to the bracket?

Regular maintenance is recommended. Apply a light coat of household wax polish whenever you notice the finish appearing dry or dull to help prevent rust.

Are the mounting screws included?

Yes, the product comes with the necessary screw fixings for installation.

Troubleshooting

Screw is difficult to drive into the surface

Ensure you have drilled a sufficient pilot hole. Do not force the screw with a power drill.

Surface rust appearing on the bracket

Gently clean the affected area and apply a household wax polish to seal the metal and prevent further oxidation.

Bracket feels unstable or wobbly

Check that all screws are tightened by hand and ensure the bracket is mounted to a secure wall stud or adequate wall anchor.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Proper installation is vital for the safety and longevity of these brackets.

  1. Pilot Holes: You must drill a pilot hole before inserting the screws; failure to do so may result in the screw shearing under the tension of the dense metal.
  2. Manual Fastening: Do not use power drills or electric screwdrivers to tighten the screws. Always tighten by hand to maintain control and prevent damaging the screw heads.
  3. Placement: Install only in dry, indoor environments. This product is not suitable for bathrooms, basements, or garages.
  4. Surface Care: As a ferrous metal, this item is prone to rusting. Apply a light household wax polish regularly to create a protective barrier against humidity in the air.
