FAQs

What is the material of the door handle?

Can this handle set be used on external doors?

What is the finish of the door handle set?

The finish is polished chrome, offering a classic and reflective appearance.

How do I install the spindle?

The included 100mm spindle needs to be cut to the appropriate length for your door thickness using a hacksaw before installation.

Is this handle set suitable for both left and right-hand doors?

Yes, the included heavy-duty sash lock features an adjustable keep and is designed to be suitable for both left and right-hand opening doors.

What is covered by the five-year guarantee?

The five-year guarantee covers manufacturing defects and ensures the lasting quality and durability of the Victorian Scroll range.

What tools are needed for installation?

You will typically need a screwdriver and a hacksaw to cut the spindle.

Troubleshooting

Handle feels loose or wobbly.

Check and tighten the fixing screws on the handle backplates. Ensure the spindle is securely fitted and hasn't shifted.

Lever doesn't return smoothly.

Verify that the spindle is correctly aligned and not binding. Check that the concealed spring mechanism is not obstructed or damaged. Ensure the door is not warped, causing misalignment.

Sash lock is sticking or difficult to operate.

Ensure the lock is correctly installed and aligned within the door. Check the adjustable keep on the door frame for proper alignment. Lubricate the lock mechanism with a graphite-based lubricant if necessary.

Screws do not grip properly.

If screws are stripping the wood, you may need to use slightly larger screws or fill the holes with wood dowel and glue before re-drilling pilot holes.

Sash lock rattles when the door is closed.

Adjust the screws on the anti-rattle adjustable keep to ensure a snug fit against the latch bolt.
