1.1 Package Contents
- 10 x Asidrama Brushed Satin Nickel Cabinet Knobs
- Mounting Screws (Break-away type for adjustable length)
2. Installation Instructions
Follow these steps to properly install your Asidrama cabinet knobs. Ensure you have basic tools such as a screwdriver and pliers (for screw adjustment).
2.1 Required Tools
- Phillips head screwdriver
- Pliers (for adjusting screw length)
- Drill with appropriate bit (if drilling new holes)
- Measuring tape or ruler
- Pencil or marker
2.2 Step-by-Step Installation
- Prepare the Surface: If replacing existing knobs, remove the old hardware. If installing on new cabinets or drawers, mark the desired location for the knob hole using a pencil. Ensure the mark is centered and level.
- Drill the Hole (if necessary): Using a drill with a bit slightly larger than the screw diameter, carefully drill a hole through the marked spot. For existing holes, proceed to the next step.
- Select Screw Length: The included screws are designed to be break-away, allowing adjustment for different material thicknesses.

Measure the thickness of your cabinet door or drawer front. Select the appropriate break point on the screw that allows it to pass through the material and engage sufficiently with the knob. Use pliers to firmly snap off the excess length of the screw at the desired score line.
- Attach the Knob: Insert the adjusted screw from the inside of the cabinet door or drawer, through the drilled hole. Align the knob with the screw on the outside.
- Tighten the Screw: Using a Phillips head screwdriver, turn the screw clockwise until the knob is securely fastened. Do not overtighten, as this may strip the screw or damage the cabinet material.

4. Maintenance
To maintain the appearance and functionality of your Asidrama cabinet knobs, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the knobs regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or polishes, as these can damage the brushed satin nickel finish.
- Inspection: Periodically check the tightness of the screws. If a knob feels loose, gently tighten the screw from the inside of the cabinet or drawer using a Phillips head screwdriver.
- Avoid Impact: While durable, avoid striking the knobs with hard objects to prevent dents or scratches.
5. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Knob is loose | Screw is not fully tightened. | Tighten the mounting screw from the inside of the cabinet or drawer using a Phillips head screwdriver. |
| Knob spins freely | Screw is stripped or hole is too large. | Remove the knob and screw. Inspect the screw for damage. If stripped, replace the screw. If the hole is too large, consider using a larger screw or filling the hole with wood filler and re-drilling. |
| Difficulty installing screw | Screw length is incorrect for material thickness. | Re-evaluate the cabinet/drawer thickness and adjust the break-away screw length using pliers as per installation instructions. |
