Hammer and Tongs Ornate T-Hinge - Black

The hinge is crafted from cast iron with a black powder-coated finish.

No, this product is not suitable for bathrooms or unheated/damp rooms because cast iron is prone to rusting in humid environments.

You must drill pilot holes first to prevent screw shearing, and all screws should be tightened by hand. Do not use power tools for installation.

Regular maintenance with a household wax polish is required to help prevent rusting. Clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth.

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

The ornate T-hinge design is intended to add an authentic antique or rustic country cottage chic look to cupboards and cabinets.

No, the product comes with screw fixings included.

Ensure a pilot hole of the correct diameter is drilled before inserting the screw. Use a hand screwdriver and avoid excessive force.

Check for any obstructions or misalignment. Ensure screws are not over-tightened. Apply a small amount of lubricant if necessary, suitable for metal hardware.

Clean the rusted area gently with a soft cloth. Apply a thin layer of household wax polish to protect the surface. Regular polishing can prevent recurrence. If rust is severe, consider if the environment is too damp for the product.

Ensure the pilot hole is the correct size for the screw. If the wood is soft, the pilot hole might be too large, or the screw may be stripped. Try a slightly larger screw if appropriate, or use wood filler to create a new anchor point.
