Using this mop and broom holder is easy. First, find a suitable surface where you want to mount it. Make sure the surface is clean and flat. Then, use the appropriate tools to attach the holder to the surface as it's surface-mounted. When placing your mops and brooms in the holders, just push them gently into the spring - activated rubber cams on the plated steel retainers. For maintenance, simply wipe it down with a soft cloth regularly to keep the satin finish looking good. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they may scratch the stainless steel. Also, don't overload the holders with too many heavy items to ensure the long - term durability of the product.
