FAQs

Are these handles suitable for exterior doors?

These handles are primarily designed for interior solid doors. While made from solid brass, exposure to harsh weather conditions on exterior doors is not recommended and may affect the finish over time.

What type of latch do I need to purchase separately?

You will need a standard tubular latch that is compatible with the dimensions of these handles. Ensure it's suitable for your door's backset.

Can I install these handles on a hollow core door?

These handles are recommended for solid doors within the 30-45mm thickness range. While technically possible on some hollow core doors with sufficient internal blocking, solid doors provide the best stability and support for the handle's weight and robust construction.

Do these come in other finishes or designs?

The 'Designer Levers Victorian Scroll' range offers various finishes like Satin Chrome and Polished Chrome, as well as different backplate styles (e.g., Euro Lock). Please check other product listings for available variants.

What does BS EN1906 certified mean?

BS EN1906 certification is a European standard that specifies the performance requirements and test methods for mechanically operated locks and latches. It indicates that these handles have undergone rigorous testing for durability, strength, and operational reliability.

How much do these handles weigh?

Each pair of handles weighs approximately 360 grams.

What is the projection of the handle?

The handle projects 53mm from the door surface.

Troubleshooting

Handles feel loose after installation

Check and tighten all fixing screws on both sides of the door. Ensure the spindle bar is correctly seated within the latch mechanism.

Handle not returning to original position

Verify the spindle bar is correctly aligned and not binding. Ensure the tubular latch (sold separately) is installed correctly and functioning properly, as this often affects handle return.

Door not latching properly

This issue is usually related to the tubular latch itself, which is sold separately. Check the latch's installation, ensure the latch bolt extends fully, and that the strike plate on the door frame is correctly aligned with the latch.

Finish appears dull or tarnished

Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners which can damage the finish. Consistent gentle cleaning helps maintain the gold lustre.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Elegant Victorian design enhances home decor
  • High-quality solid brass material ensures longevity
  • Certified durability (BS EN1906) for reliable performance
  • 10-year mechanical guarantee offers long-term assurance
  • Suitable for a common range of solid door thicknesses
  • Includes all necessary fixings for installation

Cons

  • Tubular latch required and sold separately
  • May not fit doors outside the 30-45mm thickness range
  • Gold finish might not suit all interior design palettes
  • Relatively heavy (360g) which might require sturdy door structure for optimal performance

Setup:

  1. Preparation: Ensure your door has pre-drilled holes for a standard latch mechanism. You will need a tubular latch, which is sold separately.
  2. Latch Installation: Install your chosen tubular latch into the door edge according to its instructions.
  3. Spindle Bar: Insert the provided spindle bar through the latch mechanism from one side of the door.
  4. Handle Attachment: Slide one handle's backplate onto the spindle bar, aligning it with the pre-drilled fixing screw holes.
  5. Second Handle: Place the second handle's backplate onto the spindle bar on the opposite side of the door.
  6. Securing: Use the supplied fixing screws to secure both backplates firmly to the door, ensuring they are level and tight.
  7. Testing: Operate the handles several times to ensure smooth action and proper latch engagement.

Compatibility:

  • Door Type: Primarily designed for solid internal doors.
  • Door Thickness: Compatible with doors between 30mm and 45mm thick.
  • Latch: Requires a tubular latch (sold separately) for full functionality.

Care:

  • Cleaning: To maintain the gold finish, wipe regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or polishes that could damage the brass or finish.
  • Maintenance: Periodically check that fixing screws are tight. No specific lubrication is typically needed for the handle mechanism itself, but ensure the tubular latch operates smoothly.
