UPVC Replacement Door Handles
The handles on your doors are worn out over time and will need to be replaced. It is essential to keep the same dimensions as the old handles when replacing them.
The top screw position as well as the lever and keyhole dimensions are the three measurements that you need to verify. Refer to the size guide for assistance with this.
Inline Lever/Lever
A lever handle is a contemporary door handle designed to suit new or replacement doors. This type of handle is available in various 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 handles made of uPVC/Composite are made from robust materials, and are ideal for doors with multiple points that need a heavy-duty design. The handles are inline, and use the same screws and spindle to secure them. They can be easily mounted on a new or existing uPVC/Composite door.
The design of the sprung lever allows the handle to be set and angled to ensure a comfortable experience and is suitable for all users. The handle has been endurance tested to 200,000 cycles. This helps to ensure the quality of the finish as well as the performance of the handle over time. The sprung lever can also be shortened to fit the widest range of locks. This is particularly useful in doors with smaller door frames where the cylinder is further back. A shorter lever is an excellent option for doors where the latch could be activated by the thumb turn on the inside.
Lever Pad
A Lever Pad door handle made of upvc functions differently to the lever type handles that are found on the majority of doors. These handles are operated by one spindle, or two spindles, either inline or offset. They are usually used on UPVC doors with double glazing and come in a range of finishes and variations.
The handles have been tested to the minimum of 200 000 cycles and are available in a variety of finishes, including White, Silver, Chrome & Gold. The finish is BS EN 1670 Grade 5 and is resistant to rust. This provides the handle with an outstanding performance and durability to serve its intended use.
All UPVC lever pads for handles include a spindle and screws, and can be fitted on the uPVC door. The backplate fixation centers of 211mm allow for a bigger handle, which is often a benefit when replacing an old or faulty multi-point door lock mechanism. These handle for double glazed window levers have springs, which can solve the issue of handles for doors that slide out of the horizontal position when they are not being used.
It is essential to match the PZ dimensions of both the multipoint lock as well as the uPVC doors when selecting a replacement UPVC spindle and handle. This measurement may also be called 'handle centre or cylinder centres'. It is important to match the correct handles.
When you have the right PZ size you will then be required to make sure that the lever pads and push pads are of a suitable shape to fit the American with Disabilities Act (ADA) approved handles you require for your doors. These are typically of a round or square design with an internal lever as well as an external push pad.
The majority of UPVC lever pads we sell are sprung, meaning that they return to their horizontal position when they are not in use, rather than hanging out and potentially sticking in the frame. This stops draughts from entering the home. You will also find that the majority of the UPVC lever pad handles are hand-operated that allows you to put them on either side of the door.
Euro Cylinder
Cylinder locks are typically used on uPVC doors, but can also be found on other types of door. The cylinder sash lock door handles operates by using a key that unlocks the cylinder case. The case is then able to reveal pins that can be aligned with those inside the lock, allowing them to rotate the camera that rotates, opening the door. Euro Cylinders can be fitted with up to six pins, with external and internal doors usually requiring different levels of security.
Choosing the right cylinder is essential; it depends on the way your doors and handle are utilized. For instance, exterior doors require a more secure cylinder whilst internal doors can be secured using the standard cylinder. Certain cylinders are equipped with additional features that increase security, such as anti-drill or anti bump properties.
To ensure that the euro cylinder is 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 and the thumb turn if you have one. If you are unable measure it using the lock in a fixed position, you can take it out of it. It is essential to ensure that there is no cylinder that extends beyond the handle or escutcheon. This can make it vulnerable to lock snapping attacks.
The majority of modern cylinders have been designed with anti-drill and bump resistance features built into their design. These are designed to reduce the risk of attack by forcing the cylinder to rotate in the opposite direction. This can help to deflect attacks and protect your door.
There are cylinders that are made to withstand snapping. This is a common attack on cylinders. A specially designed tool is used to break the break line of the lock and then the front of the cylinder is snapped off. This is a much faster and simpler method to gain access than the use of a multipoint locking window handles system. It also leaves no evidence of the break-in which could make it difficult to prove insurance claims.
Spring Cassette
This spring cassette is located inside the base plate of the door handle. It is a spring-loaded solution to bring your multipoint lock handles to their original position after usage. The handles had no spring, and would slide when the locking mechanism was disengaged. This simple feature is among the best ways to correct this issue and is an excellent way to stop your doors made of upvc from getting stuck in either closed or open position, as they aren't always easy to close manually.
These spring cassettes are specifically designed for use with sprung multipoint locks, they will not fit multipoint handles that are not sprung and you must have a custom hole cut into the backplate to allow them to fit (please see image for technical diagram). These cassettes are a replacement for damaged or missing cassettes on the backplate of uPVC door handles. They are sold as one unit. They feature a square cut out that is able to accommodate an 8mm shaft.
