User Guidelines
To ensure hassle-free installation and enjoyment
of our products, please take the time to read
these guidelines carefully. The information is
critical for the proper installation and longevity of
our products.
We are not responsible for damage resulting from
(a) use of improper screws, screw size or screw
length, (b) improper cutting of screws, (c)
inaccurately drilled holes due to wrong
measurement(s), or (d) improper installation in
general.
Also, we are not responsible for finish deterioration
or damage resulting from (a) use of unsuitable
cleaning materials or methods, (b) exterior
installation in any kind of outdoor or marine
environment, or (c) interior installation in any area
with prolonged exposure to humid and/or salty
air.
INSTALLATION.
When installing handles, always measure the hole
center distance in millimeters only and verify
accuracy prior to drilling holes. The
recommended drillbit size is 3/16" or 5mm.
When installing rail pulls (44-series, 45-series),
please be aware that in a standard installation
pulls are mounted horizontally on drawers and
vertically on doors. For horizontal installation on
doors as well, pulls may have to be at least one
size shorter in order to allow sufficient space
between the end of the pull bar and the edge of
the door on the hinged side. Depending on the
placement of doors in the overall kitchen layout
and the opening angle of the door hinges, that
space may be imperative to ensure that pulls do
not obstruct a door’s “normal” opening function
by being positioned too close to the edge of the
door. Please check your particular installation
scenario and verify all pull lengths for your
application prior to drilling holes.
CARE OF HARDWARE.
For cleaning, we only endorse use of a soft,
damp, non-abrasive cloth or sponge and mild
soap, if necessary. When called for, our items
have a protective high-quality, 2-component
End-cutting pliers (A) are the
most commonly used tool for
cutting screws to the desired
length. Side-cutting pliers (B) can
also be used but will require
more strength, as their handles
are shorter and provide less
leverage than end-cutting pliers.

lacquer coating. This particular type of laquer
coating is very durable but will be impaired or
destroyed if subjected to solvents of any kind,
harsh chemicals or abrasive substances and
polishing liquids or pastes. If any such substance is
used, the resulting damage may not be visible
immediately but only become apparent over
time, as the coating deteriorates or disintegrates.
We will not accept returns and requests for free
replacement or credit for any damage resulting
from improper care.
SCREWS.
All of our handles and knobs require the use of M4
metric machine screws. Convenient “break-off”
screws are included free of charge with every
order. These screws are 62 mm (2-7/16") long and
can be cut at different increments for the most
common panel thicknesses. See illustration below.
Please make sure to cut screws accurately at one
of the increments only. Attempting to use an
improperly cut screw will damage the tapping in
a handle or knob. An improperly cut screw will
quickly get stuck and eventually snap, if force is
used, rendering the handle or knob useless.
