The Betley Butterfly Victorian Door Handle Latch in black is an ideal solution for homeowners and DIY enthusiasts looking to restore or install traditional hardware on doors, gates, or cabinets. Its primary benefit lies in its durable cast iron construction and timeless antique aesthetic, which elevates the look of vintage or cottage-style decor while providing reliable latching performance. A key caveat is that you must verify your existing door thickness, spindle size, and latch mechanism compatibility before purchase, as this hardware is designed for specific standard mortise setups.

Yes, it is suitable for gates, but note that because it is cast iron, you should inspect it periodically for rust if exposed to constant wet weather.
No, this is a standard latch handle designed for opening and closing doors, not for locking them.
The lever projection is 70mm from the face of the door.
The set includes the handle and necessary screws. Please verify if your existing spindle is compatible with the handle's internal mechanism.
It is recommended to check the screw length provided. If the door is very thin, you may need to trim the screws to prevent them from protruding through the other side.
The antique black finish is durable, but like any metal coating, it should be handled with care to avoid heavy impacts with other hard objects.
Check that the spindle is properly centered in the latch mechanism and that the backplate screws are not overtightened, which can bind the internal spring.
Ensure that the provided screws are fully tightened and that the door surface is flat; if the wood is stripped, use wood filler to stabilize the screw holes.
To ensure a successful installation, confirm that your current door mortise latch is compatible with the 100mm x 58mm backplate dimensions.
