Product Information
Full details
The Smiths Architectural Cross Knurled Door Handle in Black is ideal for homeowners and interior designers looking to add a tactile, industrial aesthetic to their internal doors. Its primary benefit is the combination of precision-milled durability and a high-grip knurled surface that provides a premium feel; however, users should note that the deep grooves of the knurling may require more frequent cleaning to prevent dust buildup compared to smooth hardware.

FAQs
Can I use this handle for external doors?
This handle is designed primarily for internal use. We do not recommend it for exterior doors exposed to direct rain or extreme weather conditions.
What is the diameter of the provided bolts?
The included bolts are M4 size with a length of 25mm.
Is the finish prone to scratching?
While the finish is high-quality, metal hardware should be handled with care. Avoid contact with abrasive materials like sandpaper or harsh scrubbing tools.
Does this handle come in other colors?
This specific knurled model is available in black. A bronze version is available in the wider Smiths Architectural product line.
Are there matching accessories available?
Yes, look for matching hinges or door stops in the Smiths Architectural range to create a cohesive look throughout your home.
Troubleshooting
Handle feels loose after installation
Check that the M4 bolt is fully tightened. If the door is thinner than the provided bolt length, you may need to add a spacer or use a slightly shorter bolt.
Visible dust buildup in the knurling
Use a soft-bristled brush or a microfiber cloth to gently dislodge particles from the linear grooves.
Handle finish appears dull
Clean the handle with a soft cloth lightly dampened with water and a tiny amount of mild dish soap, then dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of this handle is straightforward due to the included M4 x 25mm bolts, which fit most standard door thicknesses. To install, align the handle with your existing pre-drilled bore holes and secure the bolt firmly using a screwdriver. Do not overtighten, as this may damage the handle finish. For compatibility, ensure your door latch mechanism supports bolt-through fixing methods. To care for your handles, simply wipe them down with a soft, dry cloth periodically to remove lint or dust from the knurled grooves. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, as these can degrade the black finish over time.
