Troubleshooting

Screw shearing during installation

Rust spots appearing on the hook

This is normal for cast iron in certain conditions. Clean the rust gently with a soft cloth and reapply household wax polish regularly to help prevent further rusting.

Hook feels loose after installation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Pilot Hole: Due to the nature of cast iron, it is essential to drill a pilot hole into the wall before inserting the screws. This prevents the screws from shearing during installation.
  2. Hand Tightening: Use a manual screwdriver to tighten the screws. Do not use a power screwdriver or drill, as excessive force can damage the hook or the wall.

Compatibility:

  • This hook is designed for dry indoor areas only. It is not suitable for bathrooms or unheated/damp rooms due to the material's susceptibility to rust.
  • Ensure the wall surface is suitable for mounting and can support the weight of the hook and its intended items.

Care & Maintenance:

  • Cast iron is a ferrous metal and can rust. To help prevent rusting, regular maintenance with a household wax polish is required.
  • Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
