FAQs

What material is the coat hook made from?

The coat hook is forged from iron, giving it a rustic, antique finish.

Can I use this hook in my bathroom?

No, this product is not suitable for bathrooms or unheated/damp rooms due to the cast iron material which is prone to rusting.

What is included with the coat hook?

The listing includes one hook and the necessary screw fixings for installation.

How should I install the coat hook?

You must drill a pilot hole first to prevent the screw from shearing. Always tighten screws by hand; do not use a power screwdriver or drill.

How do I maintain the hook to prevent rust?

Regular maintenance with a household wax polish is required to help prevent rusting. Clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth.

Are the dimensions exact?

Please note that all measurements provided are approximate, as this product is handmade.

What is the warranty period?

The product comes with a 2-year warranty.

Troubleshooting

Screw shearing during installation

Ensure a pilot hole has been drilled. Use hand-tightening only and do not force the screw. If a screw shears, you may need to carefully remove the broken piece and start again with a new screw and a correctly sized pilot hole.

Hook feels loose after installation

Check that the screws are adequately tightened by hand. If mounting on drywall, ensure you are using appropriate wall anchors or have hit a stud. Re-evaluate the pilot hole size for the screws.

Rust spots appearing on the hook

This is expected if the hook is exposed to moisture. Clean the affected area gently and apply a household wax polish to create a protective barrier. Move the hook to a drier location if it's in an unsuitable environment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Drill Pilot Hole: Before inserting screws, drill a pilot hole into the wall. This is crucial to prevent the screws from shearing due to the hardness of the cast iron.
  2. Secure Hook: Align the hook with the pilot hole and secure it using the provided screw fixings. Always tighten screws by hand. Do not use a power screwdriver or drill, as this can overtighten and damage the material or the wall.

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for mounting on plasterboard, wood, or masonry walls (ensure appropriate wall plugs are used if necessary).
  • Ideal for cloakrooms, hallways, bedrooms, and other dry interior spaces.
  • Not suitable for bathrooms or unheated/damp rooms.

Care & Maintenance:

  • Cast iron is a ferrous metal and can rust. To help prevent rusting, regularly maintain the hook with a household wax polish.
  • Clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
