Troubleshooting
Handle feels loose after installation.
Check that the screws are fully tightened. If the screw holes in the furniture are stripped, consider using wood filler or larger screws for a secure fit.
Screws do not align with existing holes.
Measure the distance between your existing holes and compare it to the handle's dimensions. You may need to drill new holes or use an adapter plate if necessary.
Powder coating appears chipped or scratched.
Use a very fine-grit sandpaper for minor touch-ups, or consider using a black metal paint specifically designed for furniture restoration. For significant damage, replacement of the handle may be necessary.
Handle shows signs of rust.
Gently remove rust spots with steel wool or a rust remover product. Clean the area and apply a clear metal sealant or black metal paint to protect the exposed iron.
