Types of UPVC Door Handles

If your upvc door handle is in need of replacement, it's important to find the right replacement for your home. A locksmith can provide and install high-security uPVC door handles with extra security features.

The most important measurements you should take are the measurement A (also known as PZ) and the length of the backplate. Make sure to check these measurements to make sure your new uPVC handles will fit.

Lever/Lever

A lever is a solid bar that pivots around a central point (known as a the fulcrum). When you apply a force at the end of the lever, it is likely to cause it to turn the fulcrum to the direction of the applied force. This motion increases the force and allows you to lift or move objects that would otherwise require more force to lift.

The distance between the fulcrum of the lever and the point at which you apply force determines the most effective movement. This is referred to as the mechanical advantage. The advantage of mechanical force increases as the lever gets extended. You can calculate the mechanical advantage by dividing distance from the fulcrum point to the place where you are applying force by distance between the fulcrum's point and the end of the lever.

Levers also have various effects depending on how the forces are applied. A lever of class 2, for example has a tendency of turning in the opposite direction when an force applied to it. If you press on the door handle and force it to open, the forces will cause rotational effects similar to this.

However, levers don't create energy. They multiply the force by converting small amounts of effort applied over a lengthy distance into greater amounts of force applied over shorter distances. This allows you to accomplish more in a shorter amount of time, and that is why levers are often used to lift heavy objects or moving large quantities of cargo. This is also the reason behind the levers that are found in many everyday tools like crowbars, fishing rods, hammer claws and even your legs when you sit on the hand brake of your vehicle.

Lever/Pad

Lever pad handles, also referred to as upvc door handles, feature levers on both sides to operate the multipoint locks. They come in a variety of designs and finishes, and can be used with a variety of materials like UPVC, Aluminium & Timber doors. They are sold in pairs for the inner and exterior door, with spindles and screws included. They are also available in handed and unhandled versions for different users.

These locks can be used to replace existing upvc door. They are typically operated by lifting the levers to throw all of the multipoint locks before turning the key to close / unlock. They provide a bit more security than the standard lever handles for doors, as the locking is only done by the inside using the key.

They're not as secure as a cylinder bolt, but are an affordable alternative to add security. The only disadvantage is that they don't offer the same level of protection as a cylinder bolt and consequently don't block access to outside when the door is left open.

We stock a large number of lever pad upvc handles made by top manufacturers in the field. They will therefore be made from high-quality components. In general, they are supplied with a manufacturer's guarantee.

Typically, they will be designed to be compatible with a 92mm lock or the replacement version of this known as a Paddock lock. They will have a 92mm cylinder centre on the inside and 62mm on the outside and come with two spindle followers. Some are inserted into the back plate whilst others are movable to allow for different fixing centers.

Lever/Snib

Lever latches are by far the most simple kind of door handles. By pressing down on the lever, it is a simple mechanism that opens inside the door to keep it shut, and can be locked with keys. Some lever privacy handles operate using the same principle however, with the addition of a Snib (like a doorknob).

A snib button is extremely useful, particularly in homes where it's essential to ensure privacy or security. If your spouse is expected to arrive at home late from work, you can apply the snib so that they can't get in until they're ready to come in. This kind handle can also be used for doors in the interior, like those in bedrooms where you wish to restrict outside access.

Snib buttons may cause problems in certain situations, particularly when you have locks that are old and doors that are warped. If the snib switch is accidentally pressed or by someone who is not familiar with it, the door may shut and lock you out. Most of the time, you can gain entry by knocking on the door frame or letterbox, however this isn't a good idea.

If your uPVC has an snib, we suggest replacing it with a smart lock from the E-LOK 7 Series. These locks can be retrofitted on double turn pull handle kits and are available with cover plates that hide the holes that are already present, allowing to ensure a seamless installation. The E-LOK app can be used to unlock doors with RFID cards or mechanical key. Passcodes are also offered to ensure security and convenience. The system has been tested for 200,000 times to ensure durability. The handles themselves are constructed using a solid metal structure and are BS EN 1670:2007 Grade 5 for corrosion resistance.

Lever/Moveable Pad

This popular handle style is commonly used on front doors. It offers the benefit of preventing the door from being opened without the key from outside when the lock hasn't been deadlocked. This is accomplished by using an external handle that is shaped like a pad that locks into the gap between the handle and the lock case.

This handle is designed to be used with uPVC multipoint locks that use split spindle mechanisms. This kind of operation requires that the lever handle and external door handles and locks pad handle are both fitted to the same lock case. This could be a straightforward change from the current uPVC handles but it may also involve changing the sash lock door handles case or even a new set of handles to accommodate this additional functionality.
