FAQs
What is the total length of the utensil rail kit?

How many 'S' hooks are included?
The kit includes 8 sliding 'S' hooks.
What material is the utensil rail made from?
The utensil rail is made from high-quality metal with a silver finish.
Can I cut the rail to a shorter length?
While not explicitly recommended, the metal rail could potentially be cut. However, this may void the warranty and could affect the finish at the cut end. It is best to use the rail at its provided length or consider purchasing a shorter model if available.
What tools are required for installation?
You will typically need a drill, drill bits suitable for your wall type, a screwdriver, and a spirit level.
Is this suitable for use in a bathroom?
While the metal construction is durable, this rail is specifically designed for kitchen use. For bathrooms, ensure the environment is not overly humid, as prolonged moisture could affect the finish over time.
What is the diameter of the utensil rail tube?
The utensil rail tube has a diameter of 19mm.
Troubleshooting
Rail feels unstable after installation
Ensure all screws are tightened securely. Check that the wall fixings are appropriate for your wall type and are fully inserted. If mounting on plasterboard, consider using stronger anchors if heavier items are to be hung.
'S' hooks are difficult to slide
Ensure the rail tube is clean and free of any debris. The hooks should slide smoothly; if they are stiff, a small amount of silicone lubricant can be applied to the inside of the hooks or the rail tube.
Screws do not seem to grip the wall
The provided screws and wall fixings are for standard wall types. If you have encountered a different wall material or the fixings are not holding, you may need to purchase more appropriate heavy-duty anchors or screws for your specific wall condition.
