Frequently Asked Questions

• Are these plugs reusable after installation?
  No, plugs are intended for permanent repairs; removing them may damage the surrounding wood.
• Is glue ever needed for installation?
  Most installations rely on a tight press-fit, but wood glue can be used for maximum hold in high-traffic or high-load areas.
• Do they sit flush with the wood surface?
  Yes, the flathead design ensures a smooth, flush finish with minimal sanding post-installation.
• Will the face grain match all maple stair treads and furniture?
  For best results, align the grain direction before staining to closely match adjacent wood.
• Can I paint over these, or is stain preferred?
  Both methods work well; stain is preferred for wood tone matching, while painting offers more color flexibility.
• How durable are these plugs in high-traffic staircase areas?
  Premium maple provides excellent durability for even busy stairwells or entryways.
• Do bulk packs include consistent sizing and grain orientation?
  Yes, all plugs are manufactured to precise standards for consistency in appearance and fit throughout each pack.
