FAQs

What material is the hook made from?

The hook is forged from cast iron with a brass finish.

Can I use this hook in my bathroom?

No, this product is not suitable for bathrooms or any damp/unheated rooms due to the cast iron's susceptibility to rusting.

How should I install the hook?

Drill a pilot hole first, then insert screws and tighten them firmly by hand. Do not use power tools.

What are the dimensions of the hook?

The approximate dimensions are Width 25mm x Height 80mm.

How do I maintain the hook's finish?

Regularly apply a household wax polish to help prevent rusting and maintain the antique finish.

Does it come with screws?

Yes, the product comes with screw fixings for installation.

What is the warranty period?

This product comes with a 2-year warranty.

Troubleshooting

Hook is loose or wobbly after installation.

Check if screws are fully tightened by hand. If not, re-tighten gently. Ensure the pilot hole was adequate for a secure fit.

Visible rust spots forming on the hook.

This indicates exposure to moisture or insufficient maintenance. Clean the rusted area gently and apply a fresh coat of household wax polish. Ensure the hook is in a dry environment.

Screw will not go in or strips the material.

You may need to re-drill the pilot hole slightly larger or ensure you are not using excessive force. Remember to tighten screws by hand only.

Hook does not seem strong enough for heavy items.

While durable, cast iron has limits. Distribute weight evenly between the two prongs and avoid overloading. Check for any cracks or damage that may have occurred during installation.
