FAQs

What door thickness is this kit suitable for?

This kit is designed for doors with a thickness ranging from 35mm to 44mm.

What is the purpose of the return-to-door mechanism?

The return-to-door mechanism features a spring that retracts the lever flush to the rose when not in use, preventing it from protruding and potentially snagging on clothing or bags.

Does the kit include everything needed for installation?

Yes, the kit comes complete with a heavy-duty lock, thumb turn cylinder, escutcheons, hinges, grub screw fixings, and back-to-back bolts for a secure fit.

Is this handle set suitable for external doors?

While designed for durability, it is primarily intended for internal use or in sheltered external environments. For exposed external doors, confirm suitability based on local climate and exposure conditions.

How do I clean the black stainless steel finish?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals which can damage the finish.

What type of lock cylinder is included?

The kit includes a 5-pin, 35/35mm euro thumb turn cylinder.

Troubleshooting

Handle lever does not return flush to the rose.

Check if the internal spring mechanism is obstructed or if the handle is not correctly seated on the spindle. Ensure the grub screws are properly tightened but not over-tightened, which could bind the mechanism.

Lock cylinder is stiff or difficult to turn.

Ensure the lock cylinder is properly aligned within the door and mortise. Apply a graphite-based lubricant specifically designed for locks, avoiding oil-based lubricants that can attract dust.

Hinges squeak during operation.

Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or a light machine oil to the hinge pins. Work the door back and forth to distribute the lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This kit is compatible with doors having a thickness of 35mm to 44mm.
