Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Spira Brass Beehive Cupboard Catch requires basic woodworking tools, including a drill and a screwdriver. Begin by measuring the center-to-center distance required for the catch body, then mark and drill pilot holes to prevent wood splitting. The latch keep must be mounted in direct alignment with the catch mechanism; test the fit before tightening the screws to ensure the latch seats fully into the keep without excessive force. To maintain the finish, simply wipe the catch down with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid the use of abrasive cleaning agents or harsh chemicals, as these can degrade the satin chrome protective layer over time.
