How To Fit a Universal uPVC Door Handle
The D270 universal upvc door handle is a real solution for those hard to find old replacement upvc door handle sizes. This universal upvc door handle works on the basis of a sliding lever that can be adjusted to the correct lever-to-lock size you need between the sizes of 62mm and 95mm. This is not a fixed lever door handle where the lever is riveted to the backplate rather a moveable lever that relies on the spindle to hold the level position. This can cause some movement of the sliding plate when the lever is operated. With its long backplate design you can then carefully consider re-drilling the fixing holes higher and lower than the existing screws, and to then avoid the lock case inside the door. To check the lock case position take the cylinder out and then release some of the screws from the side of the door and this will allow the lock case to be pulled out from the side. If you are uncertain please contact a local double glazing repairs company to help you. For more information regarding guarantees, performance and sizing please refer to the technical sheet finding the correct upvc door handles
Universal uPVC Door Handle Screws, Spindles and Fittings
*Before ordering your universal upvc door handle do check the thickness of the door as the screws and spindles will need to be the correct length in order for the handle to fit correctly. This universal door handle is supplied with a 140mm spindle (8mm square) and two M5 screws that are 80mm long. This will suit a door thickness between 60 and 70mm. If your door thickness is smaller by 10mm, as an example, then you need 70mm screws and a 130mm spindle length. These items can be ordered from the website.
**If you are using this universal upvc door handle as an offset spindle arrangement then you will need to either re-use your existing spindles or purchase new spindles separately. Bear in mind the length is minus the extended length that protrudes through the door to the other side.
