FAQs

What size door thickness is this handle set suitable for?

The set includes a 100mm spindle which can be cut to size. This generally accommodates most standard interior door thicknesses. Measure your door thickness before installation to determine if cutting is required.

Can this set be used on an exterior door?

This set is designed specifically as an interior bathroom lock set. It may not provide the security or weather resistance required for exterior doors.

How do I clean and maintain the brass finish?

Use a soft, damp cloth for regular cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the polished brass finish. Dry thoroughly after cleaning.

Is this set suitable for a fire door?

The product information does not specify suitability for fire doors. For fire safety compliance, please consult fire door regulations and ensure any hardware used meets those standards.

Does the lock have an emergency release from the outside?

As a bathroom lock, it typically includes an emergency release mechanism accessible from the outside, often via a small slot or hole on the exterior handle. Refer to the specific installation guide for details.

What is included in the set?

The set includes one pair of internal Victorian scroll backplate handles, a 64mm heavy-duty bathroom lock, an anti-rattle adjustable keep, and all necessary fixing screws and a 100mm spindle.

Can I replace just the handles or just the lock?

This set is sold as a complete unit. While individual components might be compatible with standard fittings, it's recommended to use the provided lock and handles together for optimal performance and fit.

Troubleshooting

Handles feel loose or wobbly.

Ensure the spindle is correctly inserted and cut to size. Tighten the handle screws securely against the backplate and door.

Lock mechanism is stiff or difficult to turn.

Check that the lock is aligned correctly within the door and that the spindle is not binding. Ensure no debris is obstructing the lock mechanism. Lubricate the lock cylinder with a graphite-based lubricant if necessary.

Door does not latch properly.

Adjust the position of the strike plate and keep on the door frame. Ensure the keep is aligned with the latch bolt and adjust its tightness to secure the door.

Latch bolt does not retract fully.

Verify the spindle is correctly installed and not causing interference. Check the internal workings of the lock mechanism for any obstructions.

The 'anti-rattle' feature is not working.

Ensure the adjustable keep is properly tightened against the latch bolt when the door is closed. Slight adjustments to the keep's position may be needed.
