Most uPVC doors and modern composite doors use a handle to open and close the door. In most cases, people use this handle to secure the door by lifting it. And the opposite in lowering the handle releases the locking mechanism.
If the action is smooth and offers almost no resistance, your handle will last for years. But if the door isn’t aligned well, and you have to force it, the handle will break. Kids swinging on the handle doesn’t help neither. Another consideration is checking the handle after locking it. This is where you will need a uPVC door repairs in Doncaster service.
Not really. The parts that fail are not readily available and if they were it would end up being a temporary fix. I see far too many Heath Robinson attempts.
Of course they can and a quick call to SF locksmith and we are here to help.
In theory it’s a simple job to replace any handle on uPVC and composite doors, that is until you have a go.
Over many years the manufacturers have changed the design and measurements. One such measurement is the “pz”. Put simply it is the exact measurement from centre of spindle to barrel. This measurement can be 45mm, 48mm, 68mm, 70mm, 72mm ,92mm,96mm , 117mm. Have I put you off doing it yourself yet?
Then there is the distance between the fixing screws and I am not putting those on here , that list is endless.
Colour of handles just adds to the complications. Fifteen shades of white, satin chrome or polished chrome?
Thats what I do. The fitting of your own handles is a false economy and will open up problems. Getting the wrong handles and following with a drill is heading for disaster. I carry all the handles required to replace what you have. Choice of colour is white , gold and chrome. I only use Hoppe and Fabfix handles which are quality manufacturers. For an idea of cost call SF locksmith Doncaster now.
