Then, you'll need to find the best uPVC door handles for your property. We've created a helpful guide to measuring door handles to assist you.<br /><br />Lever door handles are the most common kind of handle and come in a variety of styles and finishes. For instance, you could find brushed nickel, graphite, oil-rubbed bronze and matte black handles that will complement your decor. These handles can be used for both commercial and domestic applications. They are available on a variety uPVC doors in various sizes and styles.<br /><br />If you are looking to make your uPVC door more secure, you should select a handle with an electronic locking mechanism. This adds an extra layer of security to the home, and is particularly beneficial for doors that are external to the house. These types of handles come with a range of locking options, including keyed alike or dummy door lock.<br /><br />Certain lever handle sets are reverse-able, which means they can be placed on either side of the door. Some lever handle sets can be reversible, but others are not. You will need to order specific sets for the orientation of your door. Before placing an order, we recommend that you verify the direction of any lever set. Some brands such as Schlage offer only reversible handles on doors that are standard.<br /><br />Un-sprung<br /><br />These upvc door handles are not spring-loaded. They rely on the force generated by the latch/multi-point lock to bring their lever to the horizontal position following use. Over time, this can cause the handles to slide downwards.<br /><br />If you notice a problem with the handle, it's likely the spring in the internal cassette is worn out and needs replacing. You can test this by removing the handle, and then operating the lever. If the handles begin to droop, this indicates that they have lost their spring strength and it is necessary to fit heavy duty latches/locks in conjunction with your replacement conservatory door handles to prevent this from happening.<br /><br />The majority of replacement handles are multipoint sprung with the spring cassette located in the back plate, and then retaining the lever. They work in conjunction with a standard or multi-point latch to ensure that door handles return to the horizontal position following use. This is an important aspect, as it could be difficult to operate handles that are not in the optimal position if they do not return to their initial position.<br /><br />However, there are some upvc handles on the market that don't have the spring cassette and therefore require heavy duty latches or locks. These are more common in older upvc door handles that haven't been updated in a long time.<br /><br />Once you have the right handle type picked and it is the correct length for your doors made of upvc, it is simply an issue of fitting it according to the instructions provided. Taking care to align the screw holes in the handle's exterior to the holes already in your euro profile cylinder, then put in the spindle, screws and spindle provided and tighten up. Repeat the procedure for the handle inside.<br /><br />One important thing to note is that the cylinders provided with these handle sets are not typical cylinders that are used on modern multi-point locks. The cylinders included in these handle sets are smaller in diameter and will require the larger bulb-shaped cylinders that are commonly used on older multipoint doors. They can be found at your local locksmith or online. This is a cost in addition to the new handles made of upvc and is only necessary if your double-glazed door has older multi-point locks. Cylinders are included in the majority of upvc handle sets available since they are the most popular size. However, it's recommended to have spare cylinders on hand in the event of loss or breakage. This will spare you the hassle and cost of ordering a complete replacement handle set in the future. You could also use the device to repair your handles made of upvc if the spring inside the handle cassette wears out or breaks. This could happen if the door handle is used with excessive force, particularly by older or children.<br /><br />
