CARE & CLEANING GUIDELINES:
For best results, keep the following recommendations in mind when caring for your FHC shower door hardware.
Your shower door should be dried daily with a soft towel or cloth to ensure its original nish. Do not use harsh
cleaners or chemicals on the hardware, as many of the components are coated with a clear lacquer that will
become damaged beyond repair. Always test your cleaning solution in an inconspicuous area prior to cleaning
the entire hardware surface. Wipe surfaces clean using a soft, dampened cloth or sponge, and rinse completely
with warm water immediately after applying the cleaning solution. Use only small amounts of liquid, gentle,
cleaner. Never use abrasive products, sponges, or wire scrub brushes while cleaning hardware.
MAINTENANCE:
FHC’s hinges come factory greased for a silent, hassle-free experience.
If there is any noticeable squeaking that occurs after installation it is recommended
to apply a few drops of (3 in 1) multi-purpose oil to the hinge, at the nylon washer/pivot
location. The lubricant will penetrate the hinge crevices, reducing friction, cleaning
grime, and/or buildup. Spray lubricants are prohibited. If, for some reason, the hinge
is disassembled during maintenance, use a small amount of white lithium grease
to lubricate the interior hinge components.
