FAQs

What is the material of the AFIT Victorian Scroll door handles?

The handles have a solid aluminium core, providing a balance of low weight and high strength. The visible finish is polished chrome.

Do I need any special tools for installation?

Basic tools are required, including a screwdriver and a hacksaw to cut the spindle to the correct size. A measuring tape is also recommended.

Can this handle set be used on exterior doors?

No, this set is specifically designed for internal doors only.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The AFIT Victorian Scroll door handle set is backed by a five-year guarantee.

Is the latch suitable for both left and right-hand doors?

Yes, the included heavy-duty tubular latch is designed to be suitable for both left and right-hand opening doors.

How do I clean the polished chrome finish?

Clean the handles using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or chemicals that could damage the finish.

What is the purpose of the anti-rattle adjustable keep?

The anti-rattle adjustable keep helps to secure the door more tightly within the frame, reducing noise and preventing rattling when the door is closed.

Troubleshooting

Handle feels loose or wobbly.

Check that all fixing screws are tightened securely. If the spindle is too short, it may not engage both handles properly; ensure it is cut to the correct length for your door thickness.

Latch does not retract or extend smoothly.

Ensure the latch mechanism is clean and free from debris. Check that the spindle is correctly aligned and not binding. Lubrication with a light, non-greasy lubricant may help.

Door does not close properly or latch securely.

Verify that the latch bolt and strike plate are aligned correctly. Adjust the anti-rattle keep on the strike plate if necessary to ensure a snug fit without forcing the door.

Spindle is difficult to cut.

Use a metal hacksaw with a fine-tooth blade. Ensure the spindle is securely held in a vice or clamp while cutting.
