Counting the cost of incorrect installation



 

Installing Toilet Partition Hardware and Washroom Accessories may be a simple task for an experienced tradesperson, but for those with less experience, it’s not always as easy as it looks. Installation is a critical moment in the product’s life that will determine its longevity and safe use.

At Metlam Australia, our goal is to assist you during this crucial step, regardless of whether you have been installing bathroom hardware for a lifetime or if this is your first attempt. To achieve this, we have put into place installation guidelines to guide you through the installation process. Metlam Australia is founded on innovation and we firmly believe in only using the highest-grade raw materials, meaning that our products are tough, durable and stand the test of time. And when installed correctly, they reduce the ongoing cost of maintenance. It’s important to remember that incorrect installation can cause the part to malfunction and, in some cases, void the warranty, not to mention add to the overall cost – to fix any issues caused by improper installation.

In rare cases, bathroom hardware that hasn’t been installed according to specifications can cause injury. This is why it’s important to ensure that the products are installed correctly the first time around. Here are some of the benefits of proper installation:

Prevention of accidents and injury: Incorrectly installed Toilet Partition Hardware and Washroom Accessories can become a safety hazard. Loose or unstable items may move and may cause injury to the user. When installed correctly, the hardware and accessories will function in a way that minimises these hazards, creating a space that’s safe for everyone to use.

Reduction of cost: When installations go to plan, projects are completed on time, and costs are minimised. Incorrect installation can lead to additional work and costs to repair any problems. This can lead to project delays and can cause frustration for all parties involved.

Reduction of waste: Incorrectly installed products may have to be removed and replaced. This means not only additional waste and expense caused by replacement costs but additional costs and time wasted on repeated visits by tradespeople.

Increased Longevity: Proper installation and follow-up maintenance extends the lifespan of Metlam Australia products. It also reduces wear and tear, and in turn, the need for replacement or repair.

At Metlam Australia, we understand the importance of proper installation. That’s why we provide detailed installation instructions and troubleshooting videos on our website. The installation instructions can be found on the right-hand side of each individual product’s page – under the Downloads & Resources tab. In addition, we encourage you to visit our Resource Library, which provides detailed information on cleaning and maintaining Metlam Australia products after installation. This ensures that they continue to function at their best for years to come.
