Troubleshooting

Handle feels loose or wobbly.

Check that the grub screw securing the lever to the spindle is tightened. Ensure the back-to-back bolts are also securely fastened.

Latch does not retract or extend smoothly.

Ensure the latch mechanism is not obstructed. Check that the spindle moves freely within the latch mechanism. Verify the door is not warped and the latch is aligned with the keep.

Door does not close properly.

Adjust the position of the keep on the door frame. Ensure the latch bolt is engaging correctly with the keep. Check for any obstructions around the door frame or the latch.

The spring mechanism seems weak.

The built-in spring is designed for durability. If it feels significantly weak or broken, contact customer support. Ensure the handle is correctly seated on the rose.

  • For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and dry thoroughly with a clean, soft cloth.
