5. Setup and Installation
The SKOLOO coat rack comes pre-assembled with hooks attached to the solid wood base. Installation involves mounting the rack securely to your wall.
Tools Required:
- Pencil
- Drill
- Spirit Level
- Measuring Tape
- Screwdriver (Phillips head recommended)
Installation Steps:
- Identify Mounting Location: Choose a suitable location on your wall. The coat rack is designed with 16-inch (40.6 cm) spacing between mounting holes, ideal for attaching to standard wall studs for maximum stability.
- Mark Drill Points: Hold the coat rack against the wall at the desired height. Use a spirit level to ensure it is perfectly horizontal. Mark the positions of the mounting holes with a pencil. Alternatively, use the provided measuring tape template, ensuring the marked holes align with the rack's mounting brackets.
- Drill Pilot Holes: Based on your wall type (drywall, wood stud, brick, concrete), drill appropriate pilot holes. If drilling into drywall without a stud, use the provided wall anchors. For wood studs, drill a smaller pilot hole suitable for the screws.
- Insert Wall Anchors (if applicable): If using wall anchors for drywall, gently tap them into the pilot holes until flush with the wall surface.
- Mount the Coat Rack: Align the mounting holes on the back of the coat rack with the drilled holes or installed anchors. Insert the screws and tighten them securely with a screwdriver. Ensure the rack is firmly attached to the wall and does not wobble.

7. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your coat rack, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the wood and metal hooks with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
- Inspection: Periodically inspect the mounting screws and the integrity of the wall attachment. Tighten any loose screws immediately.
- Weight Limit: Always adhere to the maximum weight capacity to prevent damage to the rack or the wall.
8. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your SKOLOO coat rack, consider the following common solutions:
- Rack feels loose after installation: This often indicates insufficient tightening of screws or improper wall anchors for the wall type. Re-tighten all screws. If mounted in drywall, ensure appropriate anchors were used and installed correctly. Consider relocating to a wall stud if possible for greater stability.
- Hooks are wobbly: The hooks are pre-screwed to the wood base. If a hook becomes loose, gently tighten the screw from the back of the wood plank that secures the hook.
- Difficulty aligning mounting holes: Ensure you are using a spirit level and accurately marking the drill points. Double-check measurements against the rack's actual mounting bracket positions, as templates can sometimes vary slightly.
