FAQs

What is the weight capacity of the knife rack?

The weight capacity depends on the mounting surface. It is designed to hold up to 8 knives. Ensure the wall and fixings can support the combined weight of the rack and knives.

Can I use this knife rack with ceramic knives?

No, this magnetic knife rack is not suitable for ceramic knives as they are not magnetic.

How do I clean the granite surface?

Wipe the granite surface with a damp cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scrubbers.

What if the included fixings are not suitable for my wall?

You may need to purchase alternative fixings that are suitable for your specific wall type (e.g., plasterboard, concrete). Ensure the fixings are rated to support the weight of the rack and knives.

How many knives can the rack hold?

The rack can hold up to 8 knives, depending on the size and weight of the knives.

What are the dimensions of the knife rack?

The knife rack measures 46 x 2 x 6 cms.

What type of magnets are used in the knife rack?

The rack uses super strong neodymium magnets for a secure hold.

Is the knife rack easy to install?

Yes, the knife rack includes fixings for easy wall mounting. Simply follow the instructions to secure it to your wall.

Troubleshooting

Knife rack is not securely attached to the wall.

Check the screws and fixings, and ensure they are properly installed. If necessary, use stronger fixings or mount to a more robust part of the wall (e.g., a stud).

Knives are sliding down the rack.

Ensure the knife blades are clean and dry. Check the magnets for debris and clean the surface. Make sure the knives are compatible with magnetic racks (made of ferrous metal).

The rack is crooked after installation.

Re-check the level and remount the rack, ensuring it is straight. Check that all fixings are correctly installed and tightened.
