Installation Instructions
Installing the Richelieu Hardware cabinet pull is a straightforward process. Follow these general steps for proper installation:
- Determine Spacing: Identify the desired center-to-center spacing for your pull. For this model, it is 160 mm (6 5/16 inches).
- Choose Placement: Decide on the optimal placement of the pull on your cabinet door or drawer front. Consider ergonomics and aesthetic alignment.
- Mark Drill Points: Using a measuring tape and a pencil, accurately mark the two drill points on your cabinet surface according to the 160 mm center-to-center spacing. A drilling template can simplify this step and ensure precision.
- Drill Holes: Carefully drill pilot holes at the marked points. Use a drill bit appropriate for the M4 screws and the material of your cabinet. Ensure not to drill through the entire cabinet if it's a door.
- Attach Pull: Align the pull with the drilled holes and insert the provided M4 screws from the inside of the cabinet door or drawer. Tighten the screws until the pull is securely fastened. Do not overtighten.

Care and Maintenance
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your brushed nickel cabinet pull, follow these care instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe the pull regularly with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used.
- Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Do not use abrasive cleaners, ammonia-based products, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the brushed nickel finish.
- Drying: After cleaning, dry the pull immediately with a clean, soft cloth to prevent water spots.
- Periodic Check: Periodically check the mounting screws for tightness and re-tighten if necessary to ensure the pull remains secure.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your cabinet pull, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:
- Loose Pull: If the pull feels loose, gently tighten the M4 screws from the inside of the cabinet door or drawer. Do not overtighten.
- Scratches or Damage to Finish: Minor scratches may sometimes be buffed out with a very fine abrasive pad designed for brushed metals, following the grain of the finish. For significant damage, replacement may be necessary.
- Difficulty Opening/Closing: Ensure the cabinet door or drawer itself is functioning correctly. The pull should not impede its movement if properly installed.
