FAQs

What is included in the package?

Each pair includes two handles on a backplate, a Euro profile lock and cylinder, a 100mm spindle (cuttable to size), and all necessary fixing screws and bolts.

Can this handle set be used on external doors?

Yes, the Euro profile lock with anti-drill and anti-pick technology makes it suitable for external doors requiring enhanced security.

How do I clean the matt black finish?

Use a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents to prevent damage to the finish.

Is the spindle length fixed?

No, the included 100mm spindle can be cut to the appropriate size for a secure and custom fit on your door.

Will this handle work on any door?

It is designed for standard doors and is compatible with both left and right-hand opening doors. The spindle can be adjusted for different door thicknesses.

What kind of lock mechanism does it use?

It uses a Euro profile lock and cylinder, which is a common standard offering good security features.

Troubleshooting

Handle feels loose or sags

Check that the spindle is securely fitted and that the backplate screws are tightened appropriately. If the spindle was cut, ensure it was done precisely.

Lock mechanism is stiff or difficult to turn

Ensure the lock cylinder is correctly aligned within the door and backplate. Try lubricating the keyhole with a graphite-based lubricant (not oil-based).

Door does not close smoothly or rattles

Adjust the position of the keep on the door frame. Ensure the ball bearing hinges are functioning correctly and not obstructed.

Handle does not return to the horizontal position

Verify that the internal spring mechanism is not obstructed and that the spindle is correctly seated within the handle mechanism.
