FAQs

What type of lock mechanism do these handles work with?

These handles are designed to work with standard Euro profile lock mechanisms.

Is it difficult to install these handles?

No, they are designed to be DIY friendly and come with all necessary fixings and a spindle that can be cut to size for an easy installation.

How do I clean the polished chrome finish?

Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners to prevent scratching.

What is the purpose of the built-in spring mechanism?

The spring mechanism ensures the handle returns smoothly to its position after use and helps prevent it from sagging over time, enhancing durability.

Does the handle set come with everything I need for installation?

Yes, the set includes the door handles, backplates, and all necessary fixings, including a 100mm spindle.

Can the spindle be cut to fit different door thicknesses?

Yes, the included 100mm spindle is designed to be cut to the precise length needed for your door's thickness, ensuring a secure fit.

Are these handles suitable for external doors?

Yes, they are suitable for both internal and external doors in a residential setting, offering style and durability for daily use.

Troubleshooting

Handle feels loose or wobbly.

Check that all screws on the backplate are tightened securely. Ensure the spindle is correctly cut and fully inserted through the latch mechanism and handles.

Handle does not return to the horizontal position.

Verify that the built-in spring mechanism is not obstructed. Ensure the spindle is rotating freely within the latch mechanism. The latch mechanism itself may require lubrication or replacement.

Difficulty installing the spindle.

Carefully measure the door's thickness and use a fine-toothed saw to cut the spindle to the required length. Ensure the cut ends are clean and free of burrs.

Scratches or damage to the polished finish.

Use only non-abrasive cleaning cloths and mild cleaning solutions. For minor scratches, a chrome polish may help, but significant damage may be irreversible.
