They are designed to be used with key wind locks. However, they can be fitted to multipoint split spindle door locks. After you have picked the correct handle for the doors the finishes will be listed in the drop-down list. Certain types of handles are not available in all finishes. It is recommended to check the technical drawing and dimensions sections for the particular item that you want to ensure you get the correct size and fit. It is essential to ensure that when you choose a new set of Upvc lever pad handles, they are in line with the PZ (distance from the spindle of the handle to the centre of the hole in the cylinder) of your multipoint door locks. This is because the handles need to be aligned in order for the doors to stay locked, regardless of whether you are looking at them from the outside or inside. The handles we sell are designed to work with the majority of standard cylinder locks, however you should always double-check before ordering. If you are looking to upgrade to dual spindle levers you'll need to take out the handles that are currently in use and then take apart the lock case. This will require an extra split inline cylinder. You can purchase these separately. We have included a technical diagram in the images of each product. After you have removed the screws holding your existing door handle it is a good idea to loosen them, and then inspect the mechanism to see what condition it is in. You may need to loosen the screws further if they are not tight, and then you can remove the spindle and handle and replace it with a new door handle made of upvc. Before putting the handle in place it is recommended to check that it is in the right place. You can do this by placing your finger in the space between the door frame and the handle to make sure that it is level. Lever/Lever The lever door handles are used to operate a multi-point lock that uses an Euro cylinder. They are found on a variety of double upvc doors, as well as on some wooden and aluminium doors. They have a lever inside and a paddle on the outside and are usually supplied in two types. Sprung – these include a spring cassette within the backplate that helps bring the handle lever into the horizontal position. Non-sprung – these do not include a spring mechanism and must be manually pulled to bring the handle lever to a horizontal position. To fix a door handle that is sagging you must locate the detent access hole or pin, which is typically an elongated or rectangular shaped hole or protruding pin situated on one side of the handle base plate. Once you have located it, loosen the set screw using the help of a screwdriver, and then remove it to release the lever and return it to the horizontal position. Once the handle has been set horizontally, it is possible to put back the screws. Tighten them to ensure that the handle is securely fixed to the base plate. Consider applying a threadlocking product to the screw threads in order to improve grip and prevent them from loosening over time. Lever door handles that droop can be caused by various causes. The most common cause is that the fixings are over tightened, and are putting pressure on the bearings of the lever, and causing it to pull against the door's face. It could also be because the levers aren't being operated at a straight angle and this is causing compression of the latch mechanism and preventing it from fully springing back into operation. Another reason is that the lever that is sprung is not working properly. This is usually due to the sprung not being in the proper position within the backplate. To determine whether the handle is back to its horizontal position, simply turn it. If the door handles aren't tight, it is crucial to find the issue quickly, since it could cause excessive wear on the screws and eventually to the handle falling off the base plate. You should also tighten any loose screws regularly to prevent them from becoming looser. Lever/Snib These handles made of upvc are also referred to as handle sets with a 'Snib' and have a snib button on the top of the lever that can be pressed down to lock your door in the event that you don't have an fake lock. They are typically fitted with a Fullex 68PZ (that's 68mm between the spindle centre and lever or lock centre) door lock. We also stock a range of door handles 68PZ from manufacturers such as Ferco and Fab & Fix.
