Full details
The Plasplugs Hollow Door Hook is an essential organizational solution for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to maximize storage on non-solid surfaces. This white hook is specifically engineered for hollow doors and partition walls, providing a reliable hanging point for coats, robes, or light accessories. While it offers excellent convenience and stability for hollow-core structures, users should note it is designed specifically for lightweight items and should not be overloaded beyond the capacity of the door panel itself.

FAQs
Can I use this on a solid wood door?
These hooks are specifically designed for hollow doors. While they may work on solid wood, standard solid-wood mounting screws are generally more appropriate.
What size drill bit do I need?
You need an 8.5mm drill bit to ensure the fixings fit correctly.
Are the screws included?
Yes, the pack includes both the integral fixings and the necessary screws.
Can this hold heavy coats?
It is recommended for light to medium weight items. The weight limit is largely determined by the structural integrity of the hollow door skin.
Is the finish paintable?
The hooks come in a pre-finished white. While possible to paint, the plastic material may require a primer for optimal adhesion.
Troubleshooting
The hook feels loose after installation.
Ensure the screw has been tightened sufficiently to fully expand the internal fixing behind the door skin.
Drill bit is slipping on the door surface.
Use a center punch or a small nail to create a starter dimple before using the 8.5mm drill bit.
The hook rotates during use.
Check that the hole is not oversized; an 8.5mm bit is required for the intended fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, mark your desired height on the hollow door. Use a power drill or hand drill equipped with an 8.5mm bit to create a clean hole through the door skin. Insert the hook mechanism and tighten the provided screw until the integral fixings expand behind the door panel, locking the hook in place. For ongoing maintenance, simply wipe the hook with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust. Avoid using abrasive chemicals or metal scrubbers that may damage the white finish. Periodically check that the fixing remains tight, especially if the hook is used daily.
