FAQs

What material is the bracket made from?

The bracket is forged from durable cast iron with a rustic raw finish.

What is the main concern regarding rust?

Cast iron is a ferrous metal and can rust, especially in humid conditions. Regular application of household wax polish is recommended to help prevent this.

Can I use a power drill to install the screws?

No, power drills or screwdrivers are not recommended as they can cause screws to shear. Screws should be tightened by hand only.

Where should this bracket NOT be installed?

This bracket is not suitable for bathrooms or any unheated/damp rooms due to its susceptibility to rust.

Are the dimensions exact?

As this product is handmade, all measurements provided are approximate and may have slight variations.

What is included with the bracket?

The product comes with the necessary screw fixings for installation.

How should I clean the bracket?

Wipe clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Regular maintenance with a household wax polish is recommended to prevent rust.

Troubleshooting

Screws shearing during installation

Ensure a pilot hole is drilled before attempting to insert the screw. Use hand tightening only; do not use a power drill or screwdriver.

Bracket appears to be rusting

This is natural for cast iron in certain conditions. Clean lightly with a dry cloth and apply a household wax polish to create a protective layer. Ensure the bracket is not installed in a damp environment.

Instability or wobbling after installation

Check that all screws are securely tightened by hand and that the pilot holes were appropriate for the surface. Ensure the shelf material itself is stable and properly fitted to the bracket.
