4. Safety Information
Please read and understand all instructions before installation. Keep small parts, such as screws, out of reach of children. Ensure proper tools are used to avoid injury or damage to the product or furniture. The stainless steel composition is safe for household use.
5. Installation
The Ravinte cabinet pulls are designed for easy installation. Follow these steps:
- Measure Hole Centers: Before drilling, accurately measure the distance between the existing screw holes on your cabinet doors or drawers. If installing on new cabinets, mark the desired locations for the screw holes. The pulls require a 12-3/5 inch (320mm) hole center.
- Drill Holes: Using an appropriate drill bit size for your screws and cabinet material, carefully drill pilot holes at the marked locations. Ensure the holes are straight and clean.
- Select Screws: Choose the appropriate screw length for your cabinet thickness. The package includes 1-inch screws and 1.75-inch detachable screws. For thicker cabinet doors or drawers, the longer detachable screws may be necessary.
- Attach Pulls: Align the cabinet pull with the drilled holes. Insert the screws from the inside of the cabinet door or drawer and thread them into the pull.
- Tighten Screws: Use the provided screwdriver to tighten the screws until the pull is securely fastened. Do not overtighten, as this can damage the cabinet material.

6. Care & Maintenance
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your Ravinte Stainless Steel Cabinet Pulls, follow these guidelines:
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe the pulls regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and fingerprints.
- Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, or chemical solvents, as these can damage the brushed nickel finish.
- Drying: After cleaning, dry the pulls thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth to prevent water spots.
- Smudge Prevention: While the pulls are durable, they are not entirely smudge-proof. Regular cleaning will help minimize visible smudges and fingerprints.
7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| Pull feels loose | Gently tighten the screws from the inside of the cabinet or drawer using the provided screwdriver. Do not overtighten. |
| Visible smudges/fingerprints | Wipe the pulls with a soft, damp cloth and dry immediately. Regular cleaning helps maintain a clean appearance. |
| Screws are too short/long | Ensure you are using the correct screw length for your cabinet thickness. The package includes both 1-inch and 1.75-inch detachable screws. If neither fits, you may need to acquire screws of an appropriate length for your specific cabinet material and thickness. |
