FAQs

What size is the latch included in this set?

The set includes a 64mm steel tubular latch.

Can these handles be used on exterior doors?

These handles are designed and intended for interior doors only.

Do I need special tools to install these handles?

Basic household tools such as a screwdriver (Phillips head) and potentially a measuring tape and drill for initial door preparation are typically required for installation.

Is the matte black finish durable?

The matte black finish is designed for durability in interior settings. For best results, clean with a soft, damp cloth and avoid abrasive cleaners.

Can this handle set be used on any type of interior door?

Yes, it is suitable for most standard interior doors, provided the door has the necessary pre-drilled holes for the 64mm latch and handle mechanism. It fits doors between 35mm and 45mm thickness.

How do I determine if this set is suitable for my door (left or right hand)?

This set is universal and suitable for both left-hand and right-hand opening doors due to its design and the adjustable keep.

What does 'curved design lever on rose' mean?

It refers to the style of the handle (a curved lever) and the base plate it's mounted on (a circular plate called a rose), providing a classic and robust look.

Troubleshooting

Handle feels loose or wobbly.

Check and tighten the grub screws located on the underside of the door handle, ensuring they are securely fastened to the spindle.

Latch does not retract or extend smoothly.

Verify that the spindle is correctly aligned and passing freely through the latch mechanism. Ensure the latch itself is not obstructed within the door edge.

Door does not close quietly or the latch doesn't engage properly.

Adjust the position of the anti-rattle keep on the door frame to ensure the latch engages securely and silently. Check that the keep is not misaligned with the latch.

Handle lever is stiff to operate.

Confirm that the integrated spring mechanism is not damaged and that the spindle is correctly seated. Ensure no debris is obstructing the handle's movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Prepare the Door: Ensure the door has appropriate pre-drilled holes for a standard mortise lock or has space for the included tubular latch.
  2. Install the Latch: Insert the 64mm tubular latch into the door's edge, ensuring the bevelled side faces the direction of closing. Secure with screws (if provided).
  3. Attach Rose Plates: Fit the rose plates onto the door, aligning them with the latch mechanism. For rose handles, ensure the internal spindle mechanism is correctly positioned.
  4. Insert Spindle: Feed the cut-to-size 100mm spindle through the latch mechanism.
  5. Mount Handles: Attach the door handles to each side of the door, ensuring the spindle passes through both handles. Secure each handle using the grub screws provided, fastening them to the spindle.
  6. Fix Keep: Install the anti-rattle adjustable keep on the door frame, aligning it with the latch.

Compatibility:

  • Designed for standard interior doors.
  • Suitable for doors with a thickness ranging from 35mm to 45mm (standard door thickness).
  • The 64mm backset latch is compatible with doors prepared for this specific size.
  • Works with both left-hand and right-hand opening doors.

Care:

  • Clean the matte black finish with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
  • Periodically check that the grub screws securing the handles to the spindle are tight to prevent wobbling.
