Cleaning and maintenance

Here you will find our best tips on how to take care of your fittings. With this guide, you can ensure that your handles and knobs in both metal and leather stay stylish and functional for a long time. Regular cleaning and proper care extend the life and maintain the aesthetic appearance of your furniture
Fittings in leather
Leather is a luxurious choice for fittings. Leather is a natural material that can change over time and requires a little extra care to last better.
- Use a damp (not wet) soft cloth to wipe the surface.
- Avoid using too much water as leather can be damaged by excessive moisture.
- If necessary, you can use a special leather cleaner that you often find in, for example, furniture care stores or shoe stores. For example, a leather conditioner or conditioner can be used to moisturize the leather. Carefully read the instructions for your particular product.
- As much as possible, you should avoid getting the leather too wet or placing it in damp environments.
- Hot and dry air risks drying out the leather, especially if it is not treated regularly with leather care products.
- Avoid cleaning agents or chemicals. These can easily discolor and dry out the leather.
-
Avoid exposing the leather to direct sunlight and heat sources to prevent it from drying out and cracking.
Fittings in metal
Metal fittings are a good choice for those who want something durable and guaranteed to last well over time. Metal is resistant to both grease and water. But even so, it is important to take care of your fittings to create the best possible durability. Consider the following to care for your metal fittings.
- Avoid using any kind of brush as it can scratch the metal. One route is perfectly fine!
- Use a mild soap solution (detergent and warm water).
- Dampen a soft cloth in the solution and wipe the handles and knobs.
- Rinse with another damp cloth to remove soap residue.
- Wipe immediately with a dry cloth to prevent water stains
Fittings in wood
Fittings in wood apply to those who want a natural feeling in their home. To take care of the fittings in the best way, follow the simple tips below:
- Wipe the wooden fittings regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and dirt.
- If necessary, you can use a mild soap or wood cleaner mixed with water. Wet a cloth in the solution, wring it out thoroughly and gently wipe the surface. Then wipe with a dry cloth to avoid moisture penetrating the wood.
- Protecting against moisture is especially important, so make sure to immediately wipe up spills. This prevents water from penetrating the wood and causing swelling or discoloration.
- You can also treat wood by regularly using a wood oil or wax, which provides a protective surface and prevents drying out. This also helps preserve the wood's natural shine.
