Troubleshooting
Handle feels loose after installation
Check that the screws are fully tightened. Ensure the screws are the correct length for your cabinet/drawer thickness. If necessary, use slightly longer screws or insert wood filler into the holes before re-drilling.
Screws do not align with existing holes
Verify the hole centre measurement is indeed 160mm. If it differs, you may need to drill new holes or use a handle with adjustable centres if available.
Finish appears uneven or scratched
Inspect the handle upon arrival. If there is a defect, contact the retailer. Minor imperfections may be characteristic of a handmade or unique finish. Avoid using abrasive cloths during cleaning.
