FAQs
What is included in the set?
Each set includes two door handles, a backplate, a heavy-duty bathroom lock, an anti-rattle adjustable keep, and all necessary screws and a 100mm spindle.
Can these handles be used on exterior doors?
These handles are designed for interior doors. They are not typically rated for exterior use or for use with specific security requirements like deadbolts.
How do I determine the correct backset for the lock?
The lock is a standard bathroom lock. The backset (distance from the edge of the door to the center of the spindle hole) is usually determined by the lock mechanism itself, typically around 50-60mm for common installations.
Is this product suitable for fire doors?
The product description does not specify suitability for fire doors. Please consult fire door regulations and product certifications if this is a requirement.
How do I clean the silver finish?
Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the polished silver finish. Avoid abrasive cleaners which can scratch or dull the surface.
Can I replace just the lock or just the handles?
The set is sold as a complete unit. While individual components like the lock or handles may be available separately from AFIT, this specific product package contains all parts for a full installation.
Troubleshooting
Handle feels loose or wobbly.
Ensure all mounting screws are fully tightened. Check that the spindle is correctly seated and that the lock mechanism is securely fastened.
Lock mechanism does not engage properly.
Adjust the anti-rattle keep. Ensure the latch and bolt are aligned correctly with the strike plate holes on the door frame.
Spindle is too long or too short.
The included spindle is designed to be cut to size. Use appropriate tools to trim it to the correct length for a snug fit.
Handle sticks or is difficult to turn.
Check for any obstructions or misalignment in the lock mechanism. Ensure the spring mechanism is not binding.
