Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
Installation typically involves removing the old handles, ensuring the door bore hole is compatible, and then fitting the new handles according to the provided instructions. It is recommended to have a screwdriver set and potentially a drill if new holes are needed. For optimal results, ensure all screws are tightened securely but avoid overtightening to prevent damage to the door or hardware.
Compatibility:
These handles are designed for standard interior doors with common bore hole sizes. They are compatible with most standard deadbolts and passage latches, as well as privacy mechanisms. It is advisable to measure your existing door preparation (backset, bore hole diameter, and door thickness) before purchase to ensure a perfect fit.
Care:
To maintain the elegant black finish, clean the handles regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish. For stubborn marks, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by drying with a clean, soft cloth. Regular dusting will help prevent build-up and preserve the handle's appearance.
