FAQs

What is included in the set?

Each pair includes two door handles on backplates, screws, and a 100mm cut-to-fit spindle.

Can these handles be used on external doors?

These handles are designed for internal doors only. They are not rated for external weather conditions.

What type of lock do these handles work with?

This is a latch set, meaning it's designed to work with a standard door latch mechanism. It does not include or integrate a lock or bathroom turn.

How do I determine the correct spindle length?

Measure the thickness of your door. The spindle needs to pass through the door and protrude enough on both sides to accommodate the handle mechanisms. The provided spindle is 100mm and can be cut down.

What is the warranty period?

The AFIT Victorian Scroll door handles are backed by a five-year guarantee.

Can the matt black finish be painted?

While technically possible with appropriate metal primers and paints, painting the handles is not recommended as it will void the guarantee and may not adhere well to the surface.

How many pairs are in a pack?

The product description mentions '4 Pairs' in one instance, but typically door handle sets are sold individually for one door. Please check the specific product listing for quantity.

Troubleshooting

Handle feels loose after installation

Ensure all screws are tightened securely. If the spindle was cut too short, it may not engage properly; re-measure and cut a new spindle if necessary.

Lever does not return to the level position

Check that the spindle is correctly seated and not obstructed. Ensure the spring mechanism is not jammed and that the door latch is functioning smoothly.

Screws do not fit or seem stripped

Verify you are using the correct colour-matched screws provided. Ensure the screw holes in the door and backplate are clean and not damaged. Do not overtighten.

Difficulty cutting the spindle

Use a fine-toothed hacksaw for a clean cut. Ensure the spindle is securely clamped while cutting. A metal file can be used to smooth any rough edges.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Timeless and elegant design suitable for various interior styles.
  • Durable construction with a solid aluminium core.
  • Smooth lever operation due to the concealed spring mechanism.
  • Easy installation process with included fixings and adjustable spindle.
  • Provides excellent value and lasting style.

Cons

  • Requires cutting the spindle to size, which may need basic DIY tools and skills.
  • Matt black finish, while stylish, may show marks more readily than gloss finishes.
  • Sold as a latch set, meaning a separate lock mechanism or bathroom turn may be needed for other door types.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure you have a Phillips head screwdriver and a hacksaw.
  2. Remove the old door handles.
  3. Measure the required spindle length for your door's thickness (35-44 mm).
  4. Cut the 100mm spindle to the measured length using a hacksaw.
  5. Insert the spindle through the door and attach the handles, securing them with the provided screws.
  6. Install any required latch mechanism (sold separately if not using a basic latch).

Compatibility:

  • Suitable for internal timber or composite doors.
  • Designed for doors with a thickness range of 35-44 mm.
  • Supplied as a latch set, intended for doors that do not require a lock or bathroom bolt.

Care:

  • Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth.
  • Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the matt black finish.
