Troubleshooting
Handle does not fit existing holes.
Verify that your cabinet's existing hole spacing is 160mm centre-to-centre. If not, new pilot holes may need to be drilled.
Screws are too short/long.
The handle comes with 25mm M4 screws. If your cabinet doors/drawers are thicker or thinner than standard, you may need to source alternative M4 screws of the appropriate length.
Screws won't tighten.
Ensure the screws are aligned with the threaded inserts in the handle and are not cross-threading. Check that the cabinet holes are clean and free of debris.
Polished brass finish appears dull.
Gently clean the handle with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap, then dry thoroughly. For enhanced shine, a specialist brass polish can be used sparingly, following product instructions.
