Troubleshooting
Robe hook feels loose on the wall.
The fixings may not be appropriate for the wall type or are not securely tightened. Re-evaluate wall fixings and ensure they are suitable. Tighten screws firmly, but avoid overtightening which could strip the thread.
Chrome finish appears dull or discolored.
This could be due to residue from cleaning products or hard water. Clean gently with a mild soap and water solution, rinse thoroughly, and dry immediately with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Included screws are not suitable for the wall.
Purchase appropriate wall plugs and screws specifically designed for your wall type (e.g., plasterboard anchors, masonry plugs). Consult your local hardware store if unsure.
