These AFIT stainless steel return-to-door handles are designed for fire-rated doors (FD30 and FD60), offering a crucial safety compliance solution for public and private buildings. Their key benefit lies in their robust construction and adherence to fire safety standards, alongside an inclusive design aligned with BS8300. A potential caveat is their specific compatibility with door thicknesses of 35-44mm. Key features include fire safety compliance, a return-to-door mechanism, stainless steel construction, and a comprehensive installation kit.

While made of stainless steel for durability, these handles are primarily designed for interior fire-rated doors. For exterior applications, specific weather-resistant hardware may be more appropriate.
FD30 and FD60 refer to fire resistance ratings. FD30 doors provide 30 minutes of fire resistance, while FD60 doors provide 60 minutes. These handles are designed to be used on doors that meet these specific fire safety standards.
The included heavy-duty tubular latch has a 57mm backset.
These handles are specifically designed and tested for door thicknesses between 35mm and 44mm. Using them on doors outside this range may compromise their performance and safety compliance.
The mechanism is spring-loaded. When the lever is released after being pressed down, the spring automatically returns the lever to its original horizontal position, flush with the rose.
BS8300 is a British Standard related to the design of buildings and their approaches to meet the needs of disabled people. Compliance means the handles are designed to be user-friendly and accessible, facilitating ease of use for individuals with various mobility needs.
No, the installation kit includes smooth ball bearing 102mm hinges, providing a complete hardware solution for installation.
Check the spring mechanism for obstructions. Ensure the back-to-back bolts are not overtightened, which can bind the mechanism. Verify the latch is properly aligned and not binding within the door frame.
Confirm the latch bolt is aligned with the strike plate on the door frame. Ensure there are no obstructions within the latch mechanism or the door frame cutout. Check that the door is not warped or sticking.
Inspect the hinges for wear or damage, and ensure they are securely fastened. Verify the alignment of the door, frame, and strike plate. The provided 102mm hinges are designed for durability; ensure they are correctly installed.
Clean the handle with a mild soap and water solution using a soft cloth. Avoid using metal polishes or abrasive cleaners. Ensure any cleaning agents are immediately wiped dry.
