Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installing your AFIT handles requires basic tools, including a screwdriver and a hacksaw for spindle adjustment. Ensure your door thickness is verified between 35 mm and 44 mm before beginning.
- Measure the existing latch or bore holes to ensure alignment with the backplate.
- Insert the cut-to-fit spindle through the latch mechanism.
- Align the handles on both sides of the door and secure them using the provided colour-matched screws.
- Test the lever return to ensure smooth operation before tightening fully.
To maintain the black finish, clean the handles periodically with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, as these may scratch the surface or compromise the finish integrity over time.
