Do I need special tools to install these handles?

Troubleshooting
Handle feels loose or wobbly.
Check that the backplate screws are fully tightened. Ensure the spindle is correctly seated within both handles.
Handle is difficult to operate (stiff).
Verify that the door lock mechanism is functioning smoothly on its own. Ensure the spindle is not bent and is correctly aligned with the lock. Check for any obstructions around the backplate or spindle.
The handle doesn't return to its original position.
This often indicates an issue with the internal spring mechanism of the lock rather than the handle itself. Ensure the lock is properly lubricated and functioning. Check that the spindle is not binding.
Screws do not align with existing holes.
These handles may require drilling new pilot holes if they are not a direct replacement for your previous hardware. Measure carefully before drilling.
