FAQs

Can these handles be used for bathroom doors?

No, these are standard latch handles without a locking mechanism or thumb-turn capability.

Do these handles come with the tubular latch included?

The pack includes the handles and necessary fixings, but standard tubular latches are generally purchased separately based on your specific door requirements.

How do I cut the spindle to size?

You can use a standard hacksaw to trim the spindle to the required length for your specific door thickness.

Are these suitable for external doors?

These handles are designed for interior use and are not recommended for external doors due to weather exposure.

What is the finish material?

The handles feature a durable matt black powder coating designed for interior residential settings.

How many handles are in the box?

The pack contains 6 pairs of handles, enough for 6 doors.

Troubleshooting

Handle feels loose after installation

Ensure that the fixing screws are tightened securely into the door and that the spindle is correctly seated in the square hole of the latch.

Handle does not return to a horizontal position

Verify that the internal spring mechanism is not obstructed and check if the spindle was cut to the correct length to prevent binding against the door latch.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High-value bulk pack containing 6 pairs of handles
  • Durable spring-loaded mechanism for long-term reliability
  • Sleek and versatile matt black finish
  • Easy installation suitable for DIY projects
  • Includes all necessary fixings for immediate setup

Cons

  • No integrated locking mechanism for privacy rooms
  • Not suitable for bathrooms or bedrooms requiring a thumb-turn lock
  • Matt black finish may show fingerprints or dust more easily than chrome
  • Spindle requires manual cutting for doors thinner than the maximum allowance

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward and intended for standard interior passage doors. Ensure you have a screwdriver, measuring tape, and a hacksaw for the spindle adjustment.

  1. Measure your existing door thickness to determine if the spindle needs trimming.
  2. Use the provided fixings to secure the backplate firmly to the door surface.
  3. Test the spring action by rotating the lever before final tightening of the screws.

For maintenance, use a soft, damp cloth to clean the matt black surface. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, as these can strip the finish and lead to premature wear or scratches.
