FAQs
What material is the handle made of?

What is included with the gate handle?
The product typically includes the gate pull handle and the necessary mounting screws for installation.
How do I clean the gunmetal finish?
Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to preserve the finish.
Can this handle be used on a wooden gate?

Troubleshooting
Handle feels loose after installation
Ensure all mounting screws are tightened securely. Check that the pilot holes are not stripped; if they are, consider using slightly larger screws or wood filler for a secure fit.
Screws do not fit the pre-drilled holes
Verify you are using the correct screws provided with the handle. If the gate material is soft, the holes may have been drilled too large; consider using anchors or wood plugs.
Finish appears dull or scratched
Clean the handle with a soft cloth and mild soap, then dry completely. Avoid using abrasive pads or cleaning agents. For minor scratches, a metal polish designed for gunmetal finishes might be suitable, but test in an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:

- Drill pilot holes appropriate for the provided screws.
- Align the handle and secure it using the supplied screws.
Compatibility:
This handle is designed for most standard gate types. Ensure the gate material (wood, metal) is suitable for mounting and that the chosen location does not interfere with the gate's swing or latching mechanism. Check the handle's dimensions against your gate's available space.
