Afit Door Handles - Black

Compatibility with fire doors depends on specific fire ratings and door construction. It is recommended to check with your door manufacturer or a qualified professional before installation on fire-rated doors.

These handles are designed to work with standard mortice latches. For locking doors, you would typically pair them with a mortice lock that has a separate key cylinder and operated by a key.

The backset refers to the distance from the edge of the door to the center of the spindle hole. These handles use a standard backplate which often dictates the required spacing. Ensure your door preparation matches the dimensions of the backplate and latch.

Information regarding warranty is typically provided by the retailer. Please refer to your purchase documentation or the retailer's website for specific warranty details.
