Troubleshooting

Handle feels loose or wobbly

Check that the back-to-back bolts are fully tightened. Ensure the spindle is correctly seated and secure.

Handle does not return to position smoothly

Verify that the concealed spring mechanism is not obstructed and is properly seated. Ensure the spindle rotates freely.

Latch does not retract or engage properly

Confirm the handle is correctly attached to the spindle and that the spindle is properly aligned with the latch mechanism. Check if the door itself is warped or binding.

Difficulty cutting the spindle

Use a metal-cutting hacksaw and a secure grip. Measure carefully before cutting to ensure an accurate fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Ensure you have a screwdriver and potentially a drill for pilot holes.
  2. Identify the door holes for the spindle and the bolt fixings.
  3. Insert the spindle through the door, potentially cutting it to the required length using a hacksaw for a secure fit.
  4. Position the two handle halves on either side of the door, aligning them with the spindle.
  5. Secure the handles using the provided back-to-back bolts, tightening them firmly.

Compatibility:

  • Designed for standard internal doors.

Care:
