FAQs

What type of doors are these handles suitable for?

These handles are designed for interior doors. The spindle can be cut to size, making them compatible with most standard internal door thicknesses.

Do I need any special tools for installation?

A basic toolkit is recommended, including a screwdriver and a hacksaw if you need to cut the spindle to size. All other necessary fixings are included.

How do I clean the matt black finish?

Clean with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a very mild soap solution and ensure you dry the handle completely afterward with another soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

What is the main benefit of the built-in spring mechanism?

The built-in spring mechanism helps to prevent the handle from sagging over time and ensures a smooth, responsive operation, contributing to the handle's durability.

Can these handles be used on bathroom doors?

Yes, as long as the door is an internal door and protected from excessive moisture. They are not designed for exterior use or areas with high humidity like en-suites without proper ventilation.

What is included in the package?

Each pair includes the two door handles, two backplates, a 100mm spindle, and all necessary screws and fixings for installation.

Troubleshooting

Handle feels loose after installation

Ensure the spindle is cut to the correct length and all screws are fully tightened. Check that the backplates are flush against the door.

Handle mechanism is stiff or difficult to operate

Verify that the spindle is not binding against the door frame or latch. Ensure the internal spring mechanism is free from obstructions.

Matt black finish appears smudged or marked

Clean gently with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Dry thoroughly with a separate soft cloth to avoid water spots.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Unpack all components, ensuring you have the handles, backplates, spindle, and all screws.
  2. Measure the existing door hole for the spindle. If necessary, cut the 100mm spindle to the required length using a hacksaw for a secure fit.
  3. Insert the spindle through the door.
  4. Attach the handles and backplates, securing them with the provided screws.

Compatibility:

These handles are designed for standard internal doors with a typical door thickness. The adjustable spindle allows for some flexibility. Ensure your door has the necessary holes drilled for a spindle and latch mechanism.

Care:

To maintain the matt black finish, clean the handles with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish. For tougher marks, use a mild soap solution and wipe dry immediately.
