FAQs
Are these plates suitable for outdoor use?
These are primarily designed for interior use to protect against common household scuffs.
Can I use double-sided tape instead of screws?
While the plates feature mounting holes for screws, some users choose high-strength adhesive strips, though screws provide the most secure and permanent attachment.
What tools are required for installation?
You will need a screwdriver compatible with the provided screws and potentially a drill for pilot holes.
Are the mounting screws included?
Yes, the pack includes all necessary mounting screws for a standard installation.
Can these be painted?
The glossy finish is designed to be low-maintenance and aesthetic as-is; painting may compromise the finish or durability.
What are the exact dimensions?
Each finger plate measures 295mm by 75mm.
Troubleshooting
Plate feels loose after installation
Check that the screws are fully tightened; if the door material is too soft for the screws, consider using wood filler in the holes and re-securing.
Surface appears dull or scratched
Avoid using harsh chemicals; a gentle plastic polish can help restore the sheen if light surface scratches occur.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward and requires only a screwdriver. Follow these steps for the best results:
- Placement: Align the plate on the door, ensuring it is level and covers the area where your fingers most often hit.
- Pilot Holes: While not strictly necessary, using a small drill bit to create pilot holes can prevent the door material from splitting.
- Mounting: Align the plate over your marked spots and secure using the provided screws. Ensure you do not over-tighten, as this could crack the plastic.
- Maintenance: Periodically check the screws for tightness. Clean the surface using mild soap and water; avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that could scratch the glossy finish.
