Required Tools
- Drill
- Drill bit (5 mm diameter)
- Measuring tape or ruler
- Pencil
- Screwdriver (Phillips head recommended)
Installation Steps
- Measure and Mark: Carefully measure and mark the desired position for the handle on your cabinet door or drawer front. Ensure the marks for the two screw holes are precisely 160 mm apart (center-to-center).
- Drill Holes: Using a 5 mm drill bit, carefully drill through the cabinet door or drawer front at the marked positions. Ensure the holes are straight and clean.
- Attach Handle: Align the handle with the drilled holes. Insert the provided screws from the inside of the cabinet door or drawer through the drilled holes and into the handle posts.
- Secure Handle: Tighten the screws firmly with a screwdriver until the handle is securely attached. Do not overtighten, as this may damage the cabinet material.
- Repeat: Repeat the process for the second handle if installing a set.
Important: These handles are suitable for door thicknesses between 16 mm and 21 mm. Verify your cabinet door thickness before drilling.

Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your stainless steel handles, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe regularly with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild detergent solution. Avoid abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or chemical solvents, as these can damage the stainless steel finish.
- Drying: Always dry the handles thoroughly after cleaning to prevent water spots and maintain their luster.
- Inspection: Periodically check the screws for tightness. If a handle feels loose, gently tighten the screws with a screwdriver.
Troubleshooting
