## Community Q&A

**Q: what is the center to center measurement?** *(in Product Questions)*

CC measurement?

A: The DHP28 Palm Tree Pull has a 3 " c.c.

**Q: can this pull be used as a handle on a wood meat cutting board** *(in Product Questions)*

Can this be used as a handle to pick up a meat carving board?

A: Thanks for your interest in our wild horse pulls. Yes, there shouldn't be any problem with using this pull as a handle on a wooden meat cutting board. I'd just be careful with cleaning so not to scratch the surface with heavy abrasive scrubbers. The posts are 3" c.c; projection is approx. 1". Any other questions, let me know.

**Q: Used as a door pull?** *(in Product Questions)*

Can these be installed for use on a door as a dummy knob? Or would the hardware prevent it?

A: This palm tree pull has 2 -7/8” (3” c.c.) posts to mount onto cabinet doors/drawers. So not sure if you could use as a dummy pull?...unless you had the posts cut off so would sit flush on the surface.
Any other questions let me know.
Dian

**Q: are these sold as a pair?** *(in Product Questions)*

A: No, each is sold individually (price is for 1  side or 1/2 pair), but work nicely as a pair.

**Q: I am wondering the distance between screws??** *(in Product Questions)*

It says 3 inches from center is that three inch distance between holes ?

A: Yes, 3" between screw holes. Thank you for your interest!

**Q: Does this mount with 2 screws and if so what is the distance between s** *(in Product Questions)*

If it’s 2 screws what are the mounting dimensions?

A: Just 1 screw. 8/32 x 1" Any other questions, let me know.
