• Use a measuring tape to ensure even spacing if installing multiple hooks.
• Mark the spot with a pencil where you want to install the cup hook.

2. Prepare the Surface

• Ensure the surface is strong enough to hold the weight of the item you intend to hang.

3. Install the Cup Hook

• Align the cup hook with the marked spot or pilot hole.
• Twist the hook into the surface by hand. If it’s difficult, use a screwdriver or pliers for better grip.
• Tighten the hook until it is secure but avoid overtightening, which could damage the surface.

• Ensure that the weight of the items does not exceed the capacity of the hook or the strength of the surface.

Tips and Warnings

• Use caution when drilling or screwing into walls to avoid hitting electrical wiring or plumbing.
• These hooks are not suitable for very heavy items.
