FAQs
What is the difference between the silver and gold variants?
The variants differ in their primary color family. The 'Silver' variant features a duo-finish of satin nickel and polished chrome, while other variants (like the 'Gold' one) would have a different metallic finish.
Can these handles be used on exterior doors?
These handles are designed for interior doors and are not rated for exterior use, which typically requires different weatherproofing and security standards.
What is a 'latch pack'?
A latch pack is a bundle that includes the door handles, a tubular latch mechanism, a spindle (the rod connecting the handles), and necessary screws for installation. This set often includes hinges as well.
How do I measure my existing door hardware to ensure compatibility?
Measure the backplate width (this set has 52mm), the distance from the door edge to the center of the spindle hole (backset, typically 40mm or 50mm for tubular latches), and the door thickness.
Are the hinges included in this set specific to the handle design?
The hinges are typically standard door hinges designed to complement the finish of the handles. Specific hinge designs may vary, but they are intended to match the overall aesthetic.
What type of metal are the handles made from?
The product description indicates a chrome finish. The base material is typically metal, designed for durability and to hold the finish effectively.
Troubleshooting
Handle feels loose or wobbly
Tighten the screws securing the handles to the spindle. Ensure the spindle is correctly seated within the latch mechanism.
Latch mechanism sticks or doesn't retract smoothly
Check for any obstructions in the latch bolt or on the strike plate. Lubricate the latch mechanism with a graphite-based lubricant if necessary.
Hinges squeak
Apply a small amount of lubricating oil (like WD-40 or similar) to the hinge pins.
Duo-finish shows discoloration
Ensure you are using non-abrasive cleaning products. Discoloration might indicate a reaction to harsh chemicals; clean with a mild soap and water and dry immediately.
