Setup and Installation

Proper installation ensures the stability and longevity of your cabinet handles. Follow these steps carefully:

1. Measure Hole Spacing: If you are replacing existing handles, measure the center-to-center distance of the current screw holes. Ensure it is 7-1/2 inches (192mm). If installing on new cabinets or drawers, mark two points 7-1/2 inches (192mm) apart for drilling.
2. Drill Holes (if necessary): Using an appropriate drill bit for your cabinet material, carefully drill holes at the marked points. Ensure the holes are straight and clean.
3. Select Screws: Choose the appropriate screw length (1" or 1-3/4") based on the thickness of your cabinet door or drawer front. The handles are compatible with cabinet thicknesses from 1/2" to 1-9/16".
4. Attach Handles: Align the cabinet handle with the drilled holes. Insert the screws from the inside of the cabinet/drawer and thread them into the handle.
5. Tighten Screws: Use a screwdriver to tighten the screws until the handle is firmly secured. Do not overtighten, as this may damage the cabinet material or the handle.

Note: For best results, use a template or a ruler to ensure accurate hole placement, especially when installing multiple handles.

Maintenance

To maintain the matte black finish and overall appearance of your Ravinte cabinet handles, follow these simple maintenance tips:

• Regular Cleaning: Wipe the handles regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and fingerprints.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish. Mild soap and water are sufficient for cleaning.
• Drying: After cleaning, dry the handles thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth to prevent water spots.
• Check Tightness: Periodically check the tightness of the mounting screws and retighten if necessary to ensure the handles remain secure.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your Ravinte cabinet handles, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Loose Handles:

  Solution: The mounting screws may have loosened over time. Use a screwdriver to gently tighten the screws from the inside of the cabinet or drawer. Do not overtighten.

• Difficulty Installing:

  Solution: Ensure that the drilled holes are precisely 7-1/2 inches (192mm) center-to-center. Verify that you are using the correct screw length for your cabinet thickness. If the holes are misaligned, a template can help ensure accuracy for future installations.

• Scratches or Finish Damage:

  Solution: While Ravinte handles are designed with scratch resistance and an oleophobic coating, extreme abrasion or harsh chemicals can cause damage. Refer to the maintenance section for proper cleaning. Minor blemishes might be touched up with a matte black paint pen if desired, but this is not officially recommended by the manufacturer.
