FAQs

Are these handles suitable for exterior doors?

These are primarily designed for internal use. Check with the manufacturer if you intend to use them in an outdoor environment, as weather exposure may impact the finish.

Can I use these on any door thickness?

The handles come with a 100mm spindle that can be cut to size, making them compatible with most standard interior door depths.

Does the set include screws?

Yes, each pair of handles includes all necessary fixings required for installation.

Do these handles lock?

This model is a standard lever handle; ensure you have the appropriate latch or locking mechanism compatible with your door type.

How do I keep the black finish looking new?

Clean regularly with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.

Troubleshooting

Handle does not return to the horizontal position

Ensure the spring mechanism is not obstructed by debris or paint and check that the spindle is not binding in the latch.

Handle feels loose after installation

Verify that all mounting screws are tightened correctly and that the spindle length is appropriate for the door thickness.

Spindle is too long

Carefully measure the required length and use a hacksaw to cut the spindle to size before final fitting.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Decorative period design adds character to interior spaces
  • Durable antique black finish resists wear
  • Spring-loaded mechanism prevents sagging
  • DIY-friendly installation with all fixings included

Cons

  • Aesthetic is restricted to cottage or traditional decor
  • Requires manual cutting of the spindle for specific door depths
  • Antique finish may show dust more than chrome or satin finishes

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward for most DIY enthusiasts. Start by measuring the thickness of your door to determine if the 100mm spindle requires trimming. Use a hacksaw to cut the spindle to the exact required length before securing the backplates. To maintain the antique black finish, simply wipe the handles down with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, as these can strip the decorative finish and leave the underlying material susceptible to corrosion.
