Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup:
The Lima Design Door Handles are designed for straightforward installation. The screw-free mechanism simplifies the process, typically involving attaching the backplates and then clipping or sliding the handles into place. Ensure you have the correct tools for cutting the door aperture for the tubular latch if not already present.
- Marking: Accurately mark the door for the latch and spindle placement.
- Installation of Latch: Insert the 2.5-inch tubular latch into the door edge.
- Backplate Attachment: Secure the Square Rose backplates to the door.
- Handle Attachment: Mount the door handles onto the spindle and secure them, following the specific screw-free mechanism instructions provided with the set.
- Hinge Installation: Install the 3-inch ball bearing hinges on the door and frame.
Compatibility:
- This set is designed for standard interior doors. Ensure your door thickness and edge preparation are compatible with a 2.5-inch tubular latch.
- The Square Rose backplate offers a versatile fit for most standard door preparations.
- This pack contains standard handles; for doors requiring privacy locks (e.g., bathrooms, bedrooms), ensure you select the appropriate bathroom edition or acquire separate lock mechanisms.
Care:
- To maintain the matt black finish, clean with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can damage the finish.
- For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and wipe dry immediately with a clean, soft cloth.
- Periodically check that handles remain securely attached, especially if the screw-free mechanism requires periodic re-seating.
