FAQ
Does the hook come out on its own?
When opened, the hook centers itself, allowing one-hand installation.
What is the hook made from?
The 1/4" solid steel hook is case hardened and zinc plated. It is locked in with a zinc-plated pin.
Is the tape reflective?
Yes. The tape on Fat Ivan® tools is reflective and can easily be seen in a smoky environment when hit with a light.
Does it have magnets?
Yes. Two rare earth magnets sit under the clear tape, so you can store it on any metal surface.
Will it fit my door?
Fat Ivan® is made for standard hinged doors. If you are unsure about your door, email or text us before ordering.
What is the return policy?
Orders placed on The Propper Shop follow its return policy. For product questions, email customerservice@fativan.com.
