Troubleshooting
Handle is wobbly after installation
Ensure screws are tightened securely from the inside. Check that the mounting surface is not damaged or too thin to hold the screw firmly.
Screw provided is too short/long
The handle is designed for standard door/drawer thicknesses. If you have unusually thick or thin doors, you may need to source alternative screws of the correct length from a hardware store.
Matt black finish appears uneven
This is rare, but check if the finish is scratched or damaged. Minor variations can occur due to the hand-finished nature of some matt coatings. Contact the retailer if significant defects are present.
