upvc replacement door handles (new post from mozillabd.science)

As time passes, the handles on your doors will wear out and require replacement. In this case, it is important that the new handles conform to the critical dimensions of the handle that was previously used.

The top screw position as well as the lever and keyhole sizes are the three measurements that you need to verify. Use the size guide to assist you.

Inline Lever/Lever

A lever handle or lever is a modern door handle that is designed to fit new or replacement double glazing handles doors. This type of handle is available in a variety of designs and finishes. A number of manufacturers make this handle, including Avocet ERA, Fullex, Hoppe, Mila, Millenco & Yale.

Fab and Fix Windsor Inline Sprung Lever Door Handle

The uPVC/Composite handles are made of tough materials and are perfect for multi-point lock doors that need a heavy-duty design. The handles are inline, and they use the same screws and spindle to fix them. They can be easily mounted on any uPVC/Composite doors.

The design of the sprung lever allows the handle to be set and angled to provide a comfortable grip and is suitable for all users. The handle has been tested for endurance up to 200,000 cycles, this helps to ensure the quality of the finish and performance of the handle over time. The lever that is sprung can be reduced to accommodate the widest range of locks. This is particularly beneficial for narrower door frames where the cylinder is further back. A shorter lever can be used on doors with latches that can be activated with the thumb inside.

Lever Pad

The lever pad upvc handle differs from the lever handles that are found on most doors. These handle types can either work off one single spindle (inline) or independently from each side by using two offset or inline spindles (pad). They are typically employed on UPVC double glazing window handle-glazed doors and are available in a variety of variations and finishes.

The handles have been tested to a minimum of 200,000 cycles and are available in a variety of finishes like White Silver, Chrome, & Gold. The finish is compliant with BS EN 1670:2007 Grade 5 and is also resistant to corrosion, which gives the handle a high degree of durability and performance for the intended use.

All UPVC lever pads for handles come with a spindle, screws, and can be fitted on the uPVC door. The 211mm backplate fixing centres allow for a larger size handle that can be beneficial when replacing a damaged or worn multi-point door lock mechanism. These handle levers have springs, which eliminate the problem of door handles that sag out of the horizontal position when not being used.

When choosing the replacement UPVC handle and spindle, it is essential to match the dimensions of the PZ of both the multipoint lock and the uPVC door. This measurement can also be referred to as 'window handle repairs centres or cylinder centre'. It is important for matching the correct handles.

When you have the right PZ size, you'll be required to make sure that the lever pads and push pads are a suitable shape to fit the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) compatible handles you require for your doors. They are usually rectangular or round in design with an internal lever and an external push pad.

The majority of UPVC lever pads that we sell are sprung, meaning that they will return to their horizontal position after not being used, instead of hanging out and possibly securing in the frame. This prevents draughts from entering the home. You will also find that the majority of the UPVC handle lever pad style handles are swivel, allowing you to install them on either side of the door.

Euro Cylinder

Cylinder locks are usually used on uPVC doors, but they can also be found on other types of door. They operate by using a key to unlock a cylinder case that is then revealed with pins that can be aligned with the pins in the lock body, permitting them to turn the cam, thereby opening the door handle replacements. Euro cylinders are available with up to six pins. Doors that are internal and external require different levels of security.

The choice of cylinder you choose is crucial. It depends on the type of use your doors and handles will receive. For example, external doors should be fitted with an extra secure cylinder, while doors inside can be secured with an ordinary cylinder. Certain cylinders are equipped with additional features that increase security, such as anti drill or anti bump properties.

To make sure that the euro cylinder is of the right size for your door, it must be measured accurately. The cylinder should be measured from the central fixing screw hole to each end of the cylinder, including the thumb turn if you have one. It is best to do this while the lock is in place, but when this isn't feasible, you can take it off and remove it to take measurements. It is essential to ensure that there is no cylinder that extends beyond the handle or escutcheon. This could make it vulnerable to lock snapping attacks.

Most newer cylinders have been constructed with bump and anti-drill features included in their design. These are designed to reduce attack chances by forcing the cylinders to turn in a different direction. This can help deflect the attack, and ensure your door is secure.

There are also cylinders made to withstand snapping. This is an increasingly common method of attack on cylinders where the break line in the lock is attacked using a special tool to break the front of the cylinder and allow the door to open. This is a faster and simpler method to gain access than using the use of a multipoint locking system. It also leaves less evidence of the break-in which could make it difficult to prove insurance claims.

Spring Cassette

The spring cassette is located in the base of your door handle's backplate, providing a spring solution that returns the multipoint lock handles back to their rest position after usage. The handles had no spring, and would slide when the locking mechanism was removed. Adding this simple component is one of the most effective ways to fix this issue and is a great way to prevent your doors made of upvc from becoming stuck in the open or closed position, as they aren't always simple to manually close by hand.

These spring cassettes are specially made for use with multipoint locks that are sprung, they will not fit multipoint handles that are not sprung and you will need to have a hole specifically cut in the backplate to allow them to fit (please see image for technical diagram). These cassettes are a replacement to damaged or missing cassettes on the backplate of uPVC door handles. They are available as a single unit. They have a square-cut out that is able to accommodate an 8mm shaft.

These spring cassettes are a fantastic value-for-money way to fix the problem of door handles that are sliding. They are simple to install and will prolong the lifespan of your uPVC doors.
