Description
Our rustic wrought iron screw-in Wall and Beam Hook is useful for displaying ornaments on a vertical surface. As each one is handmade, they will be similar, but not identical, adding to their character. This hook is also available in a larger size. Fitting our Wall and Beam Hook These hooks are typically installed into old beams, which can be quite hard, particularly oak. We recommend drilling a 3 mm pilot hole first and ensuring there is sufficient space from the pilot hole to fully twist and tighten the hook, as the thread is perpendicular to the hook. When used outdoors or in sheds, these hooks may develop a rust patina over time, which is normal and won’t impact functionality. In such cases, you may wish to paint the hook, and we suggest cleaning it with wire wool before applying a rust-resistant metal paint.

About Wrought Iron
The rarity of genuine wrought iron is on the rise due to its laborious and costly manufacturing process. Historically, blacksmiths mould the white-hot metal using tongs and a steam hammer. Yet, with the advent of less expensive contemporary materials like steel, the production of wrought iron has dwindled, making it nearly twice as expensive as steel. Today, incorporating wrought iron elements into your home decor can provide a distinctive and attractive look.
The charm of incorporating handcrafted items into a home is greatly appreciated. Picturing a blacksmith labouring, shaping wrought iron on an anvil with the glow of a coal forge behind them, not only evokes a romantic image but also highlights the technical superiority of wrought iron above cast iron.
Modern materials have been revolutionized by the addition of glasslike iron silicate to the smelting process, which endows the material with remarkable malleability when heated. The fibrous structure of this material absorbs stress, leading to a lighter weight and enabling the creation of complex curves and twists that distinguish wrought iron accessories. Additionally, the presence of silicate enhances corrosion resistance, rendering wrought iron exceptionally durable against harsh weather conditions, ideal for outdoor features like doors and windows where both aesthetics and durability are essential.
