6 Inch Metal Tray Handle Set Golden – Gold Tray Handles for Resin Serving Trays, Epoxy Tray Projects & Handmade Décor India

What Is the 6 Inch Metal Tray Handle Set Golden?

The 6 Inch Metal Tray Handle Set Golden from THE CRAFT STATION MOLDS is a pair of gold-finish metal tray handles — each measuring 6 inches in length — designed to transform a cured resin tray or wooden serving tray into a functional, professional-quality piece you can actually use or sell. A bare resin tray is a decorative object; add two handles and it becomes a serving tray, a breakfast-in-bed tray, an ottoman bar tray, or a wedding gifting piece. The gold finish pairs naturally with warm agate, geode, marble, and festive resin pour palettes, making these handles a finishing supply that elevates the entire piece. Each set includes two matching handles with the fixings needed to mount them. In stock and available with same-day delivery in Jammu and free shipping above ₹2,599 pan India. Trusted by 5,000+ artists across India.

How to Mount Tray Handles on a Resin Tray (Step-by-Step)

Follow these five steps to attach gold tray handles cleanly to a cured resin tray.

1. Demold and finish the tray: After curing your resin tray for 24–48 hours, demold and sand the edges with 400-grit sandpaper. Apply a UV resin top coat or epoxy flood coat if a high-gloss glass surface is desired. Allow any top coat to cure fully before mounting handles.
2. Mark the handle positions: Place the handles at each short end of the tray, centred and parallel. Use a pencil or marker to mark the screw hole positions through the mounting plate. Ensure both handles are symmetrically placed — measure from the edge for consistency.
3. Drill pilot holes: Using a pin vise or hand drill, carefully drill pilot holes at each marked position. For resin trays, use a 2–3mm drill bit and drill slowly to avoid cracking. Blow dust from the holes before mounting.
4. Mount the handles: Position each handle at its pilot holes and secure with the included screws using a small screwdriver. Tighten firmly but do not overtighten on resin — over-torquing can crack the resin around the pilot holes. If the resin is thin or the screws do not hold securely, apply a small amount of two-part epoxy adhesive around the mounting plate before tightening for extra grip.
5. Final check: Hold the tray by the handles and gently apply weight to confirm the mounting is secure before use or sale. For a gifted or sold tray, wipe the handles with a soft cloth to remove any fingerprints from the gold surface.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many handles are included in one set?

Each set contains two (2) handles — enough for one tray. For a symmetrical serving tray, you need one handle on each short side, which is exactly what this set provides. For multiple trays, order one set per tray.

Do these handles come with screws?

Yes — mounting hardware (screws) is included with each set. If you prefer to use epoxy adhesive for a cleaner finish without visible screws, the handles can also be adhered to the back edge of the tray using two-part metal epoxy adhesive.

Can I mount these handles on a thick resin tray?

Yes — the screw length included is designed for standard resin tray thicknesses (15–25mm). If your tray is deeper, use longer screws of the appropriate gauge, available from hardware stores. Drill pilot holes carefully in resin to avoid cracking.

Will the gold finish tarnish over time?

The gold finish on these handles is a metal coating that can show signs of wear in humid environments or with heavy use over time. For display trays that are lightly used, the finish remains bright for years. For high-use serving trays, consider sealing the handles lightly with a clear metal sealant spray for added durability. Wipe dry after any moisture exposure.

Are these handles suitable for wooden trays as well as resin?

Yes — these gold tray handles are compatible with any solid tray surface: resin, wood, MDF, acrylic, or a combination. The screw-mount system works equally well on all these materials, provided the tray has sufficient thickness (minimum 10–12mm) for the pilot holes.

What size tray mold pairs best with 6-inch handles?

6-inch handles work best on trays that are at least 10–12 inches wide and 18–24 inches long — a standard rectangle serving tray size. For smaller trays (under 10 inches wide), the handles may look disproportionately large; 4-inch handles are better suited for smaller formats. Browse our silicone molds collection for compatible tray mold sizes.
