Product Information

Full details

This AFIT Dixon Black Door Handle Set is designed for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to upgrade interior doors with a modern, stylish, and highly functional hardware solution. Its key benefit is the combination of a secure, comfortable knurled grip with a complete, easy-to-install package that includes handles, latch, and hinges. A potential caveat is the need for basic tools like a screwdriver and hacksaw for installation, and that it's specifically designed for timber or composite doors of a particular thickness.

Troubleshooting

Handle feels loose or wobbly.

Check that the back-to-back bolt fixings are fully tightened. Ensure the spindle is correctly seated in both levers.

Latch mechanism is stiff or noisy.

Ensure the latch is installed with the bevelled edge facing the correct direction of door closure. Lubricate the latch bolt with a graphite-based lubricant if necessary. Check for any obstructions in the door frame's strike plate hole.

Hinges are squeaking.

Ensure the ball bearing hinges are properly installed. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the hinge pins.

Spindle is too long or short.

The spindle is designed to be cut to size. Use a hacksaw to trim it to the correct length if it's too long. If too short, re-check measurements and ensure the correct spindle from the kit is being used.

Door does not close properly.

Check that the door is not binding against the frame. Adjust the position of the strike plate or hinges if necessary. Ensure the latch bolt is fully retracting and extending.
