Troubleshooting
Bottle opener feels loose on the wall.
Ensure the mounting screws are fully tightened. If mounted on drywall, use appropriate wall anchors for a secure fit.
Difficulty opening a bottle cap.
Ensure the bottle cap is properly seated under the opener's lip. Check that no debris is obstructing the mechanism.
Surface finish appears to be rusting.
This is normal for cast iron, especially in humid environments. Gently scrub away rust spots with steel wool and apply a thin coat of food-safe mineral oil to prevent recurrence. Wipe off excess oil.
