FAQs
What tools do I need for installation?
You will need a screwdriver (or drill with a screwdriver bit) and possibly a measuring tape if you are not replacing existing handles.
Are the screws included?
Yes, the handles come with 25mm M4 screws for easy installation.
Can these handles be used on drawers?
Yes, these handles are suitable for both cabinet doors and drawers.
What is the material of the handle?
The handle is made from solid aluminium.
How do I measure the hole centres?
Measure the distance between the two screw holes on your existing handle or on the cabinet door itself. The hole centres for this handle are 160mm.
What if the screws are too long?
If the screws are too long, they may protrude into the cabinet. You can use a hacksaw to shorten them, or purchase shorter screws from a local hardware store.
How durable is the matt black finish?
The matt black finish is durable for everyday use, but avoid abrasive cleaners to prevent scratches.
Troubleshooting
Handle feels loose after installation.
Tighten the screws further, but do not overtighten. If the screws are stripped, you may need to use longer screws or fill the hole and re-drill.
Handle doesn't align with the existing holes.
Verify that your cabinet's hole spacing matches the 160mm specification. If not, new holes may need to be drilled, or a different handle type should be selected.
The matt black finish shows fingerprints easily.
Wipe the handles frequently with a soft cloth to remove fingerprints and smudges. Consider using a microfiber cloth for best results.
