FAQs

What material are the AFIT Olvera door handles made from?

The product description implies a metal construction suitable for door handles, finished in polished silver. Specific alloy details are not provided.

Are these handles suitable for exterior doors?

These handles are designed for interior use, particularly bathrooms, and may not be suitable for exterior doors due to weather exposure and security requirements.

How do I clean the polished silver finish?

Clean using a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads to prevent damage to the finish.

What is included in the fixing kit?

Each pair comes with all necessary fixings required for installation, including a 100mm spindle which can be cut to size.

Can I replace just one handle if it breaks?

These are sold as a pair. While individual components might be adaptable, it's recommended to replace the full set for aesthetic consistency and proper function.

What is the function of the built-in spring mechanism?

The built-in spring mechanism is designed to support the handle during regular daily use, helping to prevent it from sagging over time and maintaining its operational integrity.

Troubleshooting

Handle feels loose after installation.

Ensure the spindle has been cut to the correct length and is securely fastened to both handles. Re-tighten the backplate screws.

Handle does not return to its original position.

Verify the built-in spring mechanism is not obstructed. Ensure the spindle is correctly aligned and not binding within the door mechanism.

Difficulty cutting the spindle.

Use a metal cutting tool such as a hacksaw. Ensure a clean cut and deburr the edges before inserting.

The finish appears dull or scratched.

Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials for cleaning. Use a soft cloth and mild soap if necessary, and dry immediately.
