FAQs

What material is the cupboard catch made from?

The SPIRA BRASS Beehive Cupboard Catch is made from solid brass with a polished nickel finish.

What are the dimensions of the catch?

The catch measures 52mm in length, 40mm in width, and 37mm in height. The latch keep dimensions are 52mm x 15mm.

Does this catch close automatically?

No, this is a mechanical catch that requires manual engagement to secure and disengage.

Are screws included with the cupboard catch?

Typically, mounting screws are not included, allowing you to use screws appropriate for your cabinet material and thickness.

How do I clean the polished nickel finish?

Use a soft, damp cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners. Wipe dry with a clean, soft cloth.

Can this catch be used on exterior doors?

While durable, the polished nickel finish is best suited for interior applications where it will not be exposed to harsh weather conditions.

What style of cabinetry does this catch suit best?

The Beehive design and polished nickel finish complement traditional, classic, and reproduction style cabinetry.

Troubleshooting

Catch does not engage properly

Ensure the catch and its keep are perfectly aligned. Adjust the position of the keep slightly and re-test.

Stiff operation

Check for any obstructions or misalignment. A small amount of graphite lubricant can be applied to the pivot point if necessary.

Screws are not holding firmly

Ensure pilot holes are appropriately sized for the screws and material. For soft woods, consider using slightly larger screws or wood filler.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Determine the desired placement on your cabinet or drawer.
  2. Mark screw hole positions using the catch and keep as a template.
  3. Drill pilot holes if necessary (refer to wood type and screw size).
  4. Secure the catch and its corresponding keep using appropriate screws (screws typically not included).

Compatibility:

This cupboard catch is designed for use on standard cabinet doors and drawer fronts. It is compatible with wood, MDF, and composite cabinet materials.
