Description
Under Cabinet Kitchen Hook
Our Under Cabinet Kitchen Hook is the largest size, at 4 inches, in our range of black, screw-in wrought iron hooks. Being hand forged, each hook is similar but not identical and is finished in the traditional way to seal and darken wrought iron metal work with a wax coating.
It can be used for a multitude of storage and hanging solutions around your home. Perhaps as a light curtain pole holder as well as a tie back. We have even had customers using them to support guns and oars on walls. How about hanging a bunch of bananas in the kitchen?
Fitting our Under Cabinet Kitchen Hook
Our Under Cabinet Kitchen Hook is easily fixed into beams, under shelves, on to walls, but we suggest you drill a pilot hole before fixing. As a safety precaution, please check for electric cables and water pipes before attaching to a wall.
The hooks can be used either indoors or outdoors, but if they are used outdoors, eventually they will show a coating of rust. This is normal and will not impair the strength of the hook. If it is going to be used outside, you could paint the hook by rubbing down with wire wool and applying a suitable outdoor rust proof paint to maintain the hook.

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.
