FAQs

Can this be used on external doors?

No, this pack is designed specifically for internal timber doors and does not provide the security or weather-proofing required for external use.

What tools do I need for installation?

You will typically need a drill with wood bits, a screwdriver, a hammer, and a sharp wood chisel for recessing the hinges and latch plate.

Does the set include screws?

Yes, the pack includes all the necessary screws required to install the handles, latch, and hinges.

How do I maintain the matt black finish?

Wipe the handles regularly with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using cleaners containing bleach or acidic chemicals.

Can I replace just one side of the handle?

It is recommended to replace both sides as a pair to ensure the mechanism operates correctly and to maintain a consistent appearance.

Troubleshooting

Handle feels loose or wobbly

Check that all mounting screws are fully tightened and the spindle is correctly seated inside the handle mechanism.

Latch does not click into place

Check the alignment of the strike plate on the door frame to ensure the latch tongue enters the hole smoothly.

Door is difficult to open or close

Inspect the hinges for proper seating. If the door rubs against the frame, adjust the hinge screws or verify the door is plumb.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Complete set saves time on shopping for individual components
  • Sophisticated matt black finish fits modern design trends
  • Suitable for a wide variety of timber internal door types
  • Clear instructions make it accessible for DIY projects
  • Consistent aesthetic across all included hardware pieces

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy-duty external door applications
  • Fixed 64mm latch size may not suit all door styles
  • Requires manual drilling and tools for precise installation

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install this pack, ensure you have a drill, screwdriver, and wood chisel ready. Start by measuring the door height to position the 76mm hinges at industry-standard points. Use the included template or measure your latch carefully to ensure the 64mm tubular latch sits correctly within the door edge. Always pilot drill screw holes to prevent splitting the timber. For care, clean the handles using only a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, as these can strip the matt black finish over time. Periodically check the screws to ensure they remain tight, as normal wear and tear can cause minor loosening over months of use.
