5. Setup and Installation

Proper installation ensures the longevity and stability of your cabinet pulls. Please follow these steps carefully.

Tools Required (Not Included):

• Drill
• Drill bits (appropriate size for screws)
• Measuring tape or ruler
• Pencil or marker
• Pliers (for shortening screws, if necessary)

Installation Steps:

1. Measure and Mark: For new installations, carefully measure and mark two points on your cabinet door or drawer front with a center-to-center spacing of 3.5 inches (89mm). For replacing existing handles, ensure the current handle's hole spacing is 3.5 inches.
2. Drill Holes: Using an appropriate drill bit, carefully drill holes at the marked points. Ensure the drill is perpendicular to the surface to prevent damage.
3. Select Screws: Choose the appropriate screw length for your cabinet thickness. Two lengths (1 inch and 1.75 inch) are provided. If neither length is suitable, you may need to shorten the longer screws using pliers as shown in the diagram below.
4. Attach Pull: Insert the screws from the inside of the cabinet door/drawer through the drilled holes. Align the cabinet pull with the screws on the outside and tighten them securely. Do not overtighten.

7. Maintenance

To maintain the appearance and finish of your Ravinte cabinet pulls, follow these simple cleaning guidelines:

• Wipe regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and fingerprints.
• Avoid using abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or scouring pads, as these can damage the brushed nickel finish.
• For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing with a clean, damp cloth and drying thoroughly.

8. Troubleshooting

Holes Do Not Align:

If you are replacing existing pulls and the new Ravinte pulls' hole centers do not perfectly align, or if you are installing multiple packs and notice slight variations:

• Verify Measurements: Double-check the center-to-center measurement of your existing holes and compare it with the 3.5-inch specification of the Ravinte pulls.
• Minor Adjustments: For very minor discrepancies, a slightly larger drill bit (used carefully) might allow for a small amount of play to align the screws.
• New Drilling: If the discrepancy is significant, it may be necessary to fill the old holes and drill new ones precisely at the 3.5-inch center-to-center measurement.
• Batch Consistency: For large projects, it is recommended to order all pulls at the same time to ensure maximum consistency across batches.
