The top screw's position the lever, and the keyhole sizes are the three measurements you need to verify. Refer to the size guide for assistance with this.
Inline Lever/Lever
A lever/lever door handle is a modern handle that can be used on doors that are new or replacement. This type of door handle is available in a variety of styles & finishes. A variety of manufacturers provide this handle including Avocet, ERA, Fullex, Hoppe, Mila, Millenco & Yale.

The handles of uPVC/Composite are constructed from durable materials, and are ideal for doors with multiple points that need a heavy-duty design. The handles are inline, and use the same spindle and screws to fix them. They are easily fitted on any uPVC/Composite doors.
The sprung lever design allows the handle to be placed and angled to ensure a comfortable experience and is suitable for all users. The handle has been tested for endurance up to 200 000 cycles. This helps to ensure that the finish is of high quality and performance will last for a long time. The sprung lever can also be shortened to fit more locks. This is particularly useful in doors that are narrower, where the cylinder is further back in the door. A shorter lever can be used on doors that have a latch which can be operated with the thumb on the inside.
Lever Pad
The lever pad upvc handle is distinct from the lever handles commonly found on doors. These handles are operated by a single spindle or by two spindles, inline or offset. They are typically used on UPVC doors with double glazing. They are available in a range of finishes & variations.
The handles are available in various finishes, including white window handles, Chrome and Gold. The finish is BS EN 1670 Grade 5 and is resistant to rust. This gives the handle the best performance and durability for its intended use.
All UPVC levers for handles come with a spindle, screws and can be installed on the uPVC door. The backplate fixing centres of 211mm permit a bigger handle, which can be beneficial when replacing a faulty or worn multi point door lock mechanism. The handle levers come with a spring, which solves the problem of door handles that move out of the horizontal position when they are not being used.
It is essential to match up the PZ dimensions for both the multipoint lock and the uPVC doors when choosing the replacement UPVC spindle and handle. This measurement is also called 'handle centre or cylinder centre'. It is important to match the correct replace window handles.
After you have identified the proper PZ size and the correct PZ size, you must make sure that the push and lever pads are designed to fit the American with Disabilities Act compliant handles that you need for your door. These are typically square or round with an internal lever and an external push pad.
The majority of the UPVC Lever Pads that we sell are spring-loaded. This means that they will return to a horizontal position when they are not in use, rather than hanging and possibly being stuck in the frame. This keeps draughts out of the home. Also, the majority of UPVC lever pad handles are handed, allowing you to install them on either side of the door.
Euro Cylinder
Cylinder locks are usually found on uPVC doors, but can also be found on other types of doors. They work by using a key to unlock a cylinder case which then reveals pins which can be aligned with those in the lock body, permitting them to turn the cam, thereby opening the door. Euro cylinders are available with up to six pins. Doors that are internal and external require different levels of security.
The selection of a cylinder is essential. It depends on the amount of use your doors and handles will receive. For instance, doors that are external require a more secure cylinder while doors inside can be secured with an ordinary cylinder. Certain cylinders come with extra features that increase security, for instance, anti drill or anti bump properties.
To make sure that the euro cylinder is the correct size for your door, it must be measured correctly. The cylinder should be measured from the central screw hole to the ends of the cylinder. This includes the thumb turn, should there be one. It is recommended to do this with the lock in place however, in the event that this is not possible, you can remove it to measure. A cylinder that protrudes beyond the handle and escutcheon might be susceptible to attacks like snapping locks, so it is crucial to make sure it's not too long.
The design of most newer cylinders comes with anti-drilling as well as bump resistance features. These features are designed to minimize the risk of attack by forcing the cylinder rotate in a different direction. This can help to deflect attacks and ensure your door is secure.
Some cylinders are designed to withstand snapping. This is a more frequent method of attack on cylinders, where the break line inside the lock is attacked by a tool that is specially designed to snap off the front of the cylinder to allow the door to be opened. This is much quicker and easier to achieve than opening a multipoint lock and leaves no evidence of a break-in which can hinder the insurance claim.
Spring Cassette
The spring cassette is situated in the base plate of the door handle. It offers a spring-loaded solution to help return the multipoint lock handles for doors to their normal position after using. In the past, a lot of handles of this kind did not have a spring built into them and without this they can droop or 'drop' once the locking window handle mechanism is removed. The addition of this simple element is one of the best ways to correct this and it is also an excellent way to stop your doors made of upvc from getting stuck in either closed or open position, since they are not always easy to close manually.
These spring cassettes have been specifically made for use with sprung multipoint locks but they won't work with unsprung multipoint handles and you must have a custom hole cut into your backplate in order for them to fit (please check the image for a technical diagram). They are a replacement for damaged or missing cassettes inside the door handle backplate of many kinds of uPVC doors. They are supplied in one unit. They have a square-cut out that is able to accommodate an 8mm shaft.
These spring cassettes provide an excellent value solution to the issue of door handles that are sagging. They are simple to put in and will extend the life span of your uPVC doors.
