FAQs

What material is the Blooma Cabin Hook made from?

The Blooma Cabin Hook is made from brass.

Can this hook be used outdoors?

Yes, the brass construction makes it suitable for both interior and exterior doors and gates.

What is the length of this cabin hook?

The length of this cabin hook is 204mm.

Does it come with screws for installation?

Typically, cabin hooks are supplied with basic screws. It's advisable to check the product packaging or consult the retailer for confirmation, and consider using more robust screws if needed for your specific application.

How should I clean and maintain the bronze finish?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. For maintaining shine, use a brass or metal polish occasionally, following the polish's instructions.

Is the installation difficult?

Installation is generally straightforward and requires basic tools. Pilot holes are recommended, especially for wooden surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Hook does not align with the eyelet

Adjust the position of either the hook or the eyelet by loosening the screws, repositioning, and re-tightening. Ensure the door is in the closed position when aligning.

Screws do not hold firmly

If mounting into soft wood, ensure pilot holes are appropriately sized. For mounting into harder materials or if the hole becomes stripped, consider using wall anchors or wood filler for a secure fit.

Bronze finish appears dull or discolored

Clean the hook with a soft cloth. If discoloration persists, use a dedicated brass or metal polish according to product instructions to restore shine.
