Product Information

Full details

FAQs

What type of doors can these handles be fitted to?

These handles are suitable for most standard internal and external wooden doors, provided they have the necessary pre-drilled holes for a door handle set and a mortise for the sash lock.

Do I need any special tools for installation?

Basic tools such as a screwdriver (Phillips head is common), a measuring tape, and a saw (for cutting the spindle) are typically required. A drill may be needed if pre-drilling is necessary.

How do I determine the correct spindle length?

Insert the spindle through the lock mechanism on one side. Place the handle on the spindle on the same side. Measure the distance from the outside of that handle's rose to the outside of the opposite rose, accounting for the thickness of both handles. Trim the spindle to this measurement, ensuring a tight fit without being overly compressed.

Is the lock included suitable for exterior doors?

Yes, the included heavy-duty sash lock is designed for use on both interior and exterior doors, offering a secure latching mechanism.

How do I clean the satin nickel finish?

Use a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the finish. Always dry thoroughly after cleaning.

What is the warranty period for these door handles?

Please refer to the product packaging or manufacturer's website for specific warranty information, as it can vary.

Can I replace just the handle or lock separately?

This product is sold as a set including handles and a specific sash lock. While individual components can sometimes be sourced, it is designed to be used as a complete system for optimal performance.

Troubleshooting

Handle feels loose or wobbly.

Ensure the spindle is correctly sized and the screws attaching the handles to the spindle are fully tightened. Check that the backplates are flush against the door.

Lock mechanism is stiff or difficult to operate.

Verify that the sash lock is installed straight and the adjustable keep is aligned correctly. Lubricate the lock mechanism with a graphite-based lubricant if necessary.

Door does not close properly or latch engages the strike plate misaligned.

Adjust the position of the strike plate on the door frame, or adjust the anti-rattle keep on the sash lock itself to ensure proper alignment.

Handle does not spring back fully.

Check that the internal spring mechanism within the handle is not obstructed and that the spindle is not binding. Ensure the spindle is not too long, causing interference.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Unpack all components, ensuring you have both handles, the backplates, the sash lock, spindle, and all screws.
  2. Position the backplates on either side of the door, aligning them with the pre-drilled holes.
  3. Insert the 100mm spindle through the door and the lock mechanism.
  4. Measure and cut the spindle to the appropriate length for a snug fit between the internal mechanisms of both handles. Ensure the cut is clean and straight.
  5. Attach the handles to the spindle using the provided screws, ensuring they are tightened securely.
  6. Install the sash lock into the door edge and attach the strike plate to the door frame, adjusting the keep as needed.

Compatibility:

  • Designed for standard internal and external doors. Door thickness suitability depends on the spindle length after cutting.
  • Requires pre-drilled holes for standard door handles and a mortise for the sash lock.
  • Suitable for doors that open either to the left or to the right.

Care:

  • Clean the satin nickel finish with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads which can scratch the surface.
  • For stubborn marks, use a mild soap and water solution, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
  • Periodically check fixings and tighten if necessary.
