What is the warranty period for this product?

Please refer to the retailer or manufacturer's warranty information for specific details, as warranty periods can vary.

Troubleshooting

Knob feels loose after installation

Ensure the fixing screw or bolt is fully tightened from the inside. Check that the door material is firm enough to hold the threads securely.

Finish appears faded or scratched

The finish is designed for durability, but harsh abrasives or prolonged extreme exposure can cause wear. Clean gently with a soft cloth. For minor scratches, consider a furniture repair pen in a matte black shade, testing in an inconspicuous area first.

Difficulty installing due to hole size

Ensure the hole drilled matches the diameter of the fixing screw/bolt. If the hole is too large, it may require a larger screw or an alternative mounting method if possible.

Knob does not provide enough grip

The ringed design is intended to improve grip. Ensure hands are dry when using the knob. If a firmer grip is consistently needed, consider additional door pull handles if the design allows.

This centre door knob is designed for versatility and is compatible with a variety of front door materials, including:

  • Timber doors

Installation:

Installation typically involves drilling a hole through the door and securing the knob from the inside using the provided fixings. Specific instructions may vary slightly depending on the door material and thickness. It is recommended to measure carefully before drilling and to use appropriate drill bits for the door material.

  1. Determine the desired position for the knob on the exterior of the door.

To maintain the appearance of the matte black finish:

  • Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth.
  • Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.
  • For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing with clean water and drying with a soft cloth.
