FAQs
What is Flexi-Fix™ Technology?
Flexi-Fix™ Technology allows you to choose between mounting the soap basket using screws or an adhesive glue, offering flexibility for installation without damaging walls or accommodating existing fittings.
Can I use this soap basket in a wet shower environment?
Yes, the durable zinc alloy construction and chrome-plated finish are designed to resist moisture and corrosion, making it suitable for shower use.
What are the dimensions of the soap basket?
Please refer to the product specifications or packaging for exact dimensions. The design is intended to hold standard bar soaps.
What type of surfaces can the adhesive be used on?
The adhesive is best suited for smooth, non-porous surfaces such as tiles, glass, or high-gloss painted walls. Ensure the surface is clean and dry before application.
How do I clean the glass part of the basket?
Use a soft, damp cloth with a mild detergent. Wipe away soap residue and water spots, then dry with a clean, soft cloth to prevent streaking.
Does it come with everything needed for installation?
Yes, the product includes all necessary fixings for both screw and glue installation methods, along with instructions.
Is the chrome finish prone to chipping?
The chrome plating on the zinc alloy is designed for durability. Avoid direct impact with hard objects and abrasive cleaning to maintain the finish.
Troubleshooting
Basket is loose or wobbly after installation
Ensure all screws are tightened securely. If using glue, verify that the adhesive has fully cured and the surface was properly prepared. For adjustable brackets, confirm they are locked in place.
Adhesive is not holding the basket securely
The surface may not be smooth, clean, or dry. Re-attempt installation after thoroughly cleaning and drying the surface. Ensure the correct amount of adhesive was used and allowed sufficient curing time.
Difficulty aligning brackets with existing holes
Loosen the bracket screws slightly to adjust their position. Ensure the adjustable feature is fully utilized to match the spacing before tightening firmly.
Chrome finish appears dull or tarnished
Clean gently with a soft cloth and mild soap, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can scratch the finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Choose Installation Method: Decide whether to use the included screws or the Flexi-Fix™ adhesive.
- For Screw Installation: Use the adjustable brackets to align with existing or new screw holes. Mark the positions, drill if necessary, insert wall plugs, and attach the brackets.
- For Glue Installation: Ensure the mounting surface is smooth, clean, and dry. Apply the adhesive evenly to the backplate or brackets, press firmly into position, and allow adequate drying time as per adhesive instructions before attaching the basket.
- Attach Basket: Once brackets are securely mounted, slide or clip the soap basket into place.
Compatibility:
The adjustable brackets are designed to accommodate a range of existing screw hole spacings, making it compatible with many previous installations. It is suitable for installation on tiled walls, glass, or smooth painted surfaces when using the adhesive method, and standard wall types when using screws.
Care:
Clean the clear glass with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. For the chrome-plated zinc alloy, wipe with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth to prevent water spots and maintain shine. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.
