• Mounting Screws
• Installation Instructions (this manual)

Setup and Installation

Proper installation is crucial for the secure and safe use of your robe hook. Ensure you have the necessary tools before beginning.

Tools Required (Not Included):

• Pencil for marking
• Drill with appropriate drill bit for pilot holes
• Screwdriver (Phillips head recommended)
• Measuring tape
• Stud finder (if mounting to a wall or ceiling stud)

Installation Steps:

1. Select Mounting Location: Choose a suitable location on a ceiling, under a cabinet, or on a wall. Ensure the surface is structurally sound and can support the hook and its intended load (up to 35 lbs). If mounting to drywall without a stud, use appropriate wall anchors (not included).
2. Position the Hook: Hold the hook in the desired position and mark the screw hole locations with a pencil.
3. Drill Pilot Holes: Using an appropriate drill bit, drill pilot holes at the marked locations. The size of the drill bit should be slightly smaller than the diameter of the mounting screws to ensure a snug fit.
4. Secure the Hook: Align the hook with the pilot holes. Insert the provided mounting screws and tighten them securely with a screwdriver. Do not overtighten, as this may damage the hook or the mounting surface.
5. Test Stability: Gently pull on the installed hook to ensure it is firmly attached and stable before hanging any items.
