FAQs

What are the dimensions of the hook?

The hook measures approximately 40mm in width and 105mm in height. Please note that as the product is handmade, measurements are approximate.

What material is the hook made from?

The hook is forged from durable cast iron.

Can this hook be used in a bathroom?

No, this product is not suitable for bathrooms or any unheated/damp rooms due to the risk of rust.

What is included with the product?

The listing includes one Hammer & Tongs Hat & Coat Hook and the necessary screw fixings for installation.

How do I maintain the hook to prevent rust?

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

What is the warranty period?

The Hammer & Tongs Hat & Coat Hook comes with a 2-year warranty.

Can I use a power drill to install the screws?

No, you must not use a power screwdriver or drill. Screws should be tightened by hand after drilling a pilot hole to prevent shearing.

Troubleshooting

Screw shearing during installation

Ensure a pilot hole is drilled into the wall that is appropriately sized for the screw. Tighten screws by hand only, never with a power tool.

Hook appears to be rusting

This is natural for cast iron. Clean off any loose rust with a dry cloth and apply a coat of household wax polish to protect the surface. Ensure the area is dry and heated.

Hook feels unstable after installation

Check that the screws are tightened securely by hand. If mounting on a very hard surface, ensure the pilot hole was drilled correctly and is providing sufficient grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:
