Types of UPVC Door Handles

If your door handle made of uPVC is in need of replacement, it's important to choose the correct replacement for your home. Locksmiths can provide and fit high-security uPVC handles that come with additional security features.

The most important measurements are measurement A (known as PZ) and the length of the backplate (measurement F). Please check these measurements to make sure that your new uPVC handles will fit.

Lever/Lever

A lever is a solid bar that pivots around a central point (known as a Fulcrum). When you apply force towards the end, the fulcrum is likely to rotate in the direction that the force is applied. This rotates the force and allows you to lift or move things that would normally require more force to lift.

The distance between the fulcrum and the point where you apply the force determines the distance the lever can move. This is referred to as the mechanical advantage. The advantage in mechanical terms increases when the lever is extended. You can calculate the mechanical advantage by dividing distance from the fulcrum point to the place where you are applying force by the distance between the fulcrum's point and the end of the lever.

Levers can also have different effects based on the way in which forces are applied. For example, a class 2 lever has a tendency to turn in the opposite direction as the effort force is applied (like a totter-totter). The forces generated when you push on the handle of a front door can produce rotational effects that are similar to those.

However, levers don't create energy. They multiply the force by making small amounts of effort applied over a longer distance into greater amounts of force that are applied over shorter distances. Levers are used to lift heavy objects and transport huge quantities of cargo. This is also the principle behind the levers you find in a variety of everyday tools like crowbars and fishing rods, claws for hammers and even your legs when you sit on the hand brake of your car.

Lever/Pad

Lever pad handles are a kind of door handle made of upvc that have levers on both sides to operate the multipoint lock. These are available in a variety of finishes & variations and can be used on a wide range of materials, including UPVC doors, Aluminium doors & Timber Doors. They are sold in pairs for both the inner and exterior door with screws and spindles included. They are also available in hand and unhanded versions for different users.

These locks can be used to replace existing doors made of upvc. The levers are lifted to open the multipoint locks, and the key is turned to lock or close the door handle replacements. They offer a little more security than standard lever door handles because locking can only be done through the inside with keys.

They are not as secure as a cylinder bolt however they are a reasonable alternative for a home with more security. The only disadvantage is that they do not offer the same level of security as a cylinder bolt and therefore won't prevent access from outside when the door is left open.

The majority of the lever pad door handles made of upvc replacement window handles that we offer are manufactured by industry's leading manufacturers and therefore are made from high quality components. In general, they are supplied with a manufacturer's guarantee.

These are usually designed to work with the 92mm lock or a replacement model called 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 come with a backplate, and others are movable to accommodate different fixing centers.

Lever/Snib

Lever latches are by far the most simple kind of door handles. The lever is pulled down to operate a simple latch inside the door that can be locked using keys. The levers for privacy are using the same principle but with the addition of an lock snib (like knobs for doors).

A snib button is very beneficial, especially for homes where it's important to ensure privacy or security. If your partner is arriving at home late from work, you can use the snib button to ensure that they aren't allowed in until they're ready to move in. This type handle can also be used on interior doors such as those in bedrooms where you wish to restrict outside access.

Snib buttons can cause problems in certain circumstances, especially when you have old locks and warped doors. If the snib is applied in error or by a person who isn't accustomed to it, the door could slam shut and lock you out. You can usually gain entry by knocking on the door frame or the letterbox. However, this is not ideal.

If your uPVC door has a snib button, we recommend replacing the handle with a contemporary E-LOK 7-Series smart lock. These smart locks can be retrofitted onto double turn pull handle kits. They come with coverplates that conceal the holes in the existing ones for an easy installation. The E-LOK utilizes a smart app to enable you to unlock the door using RFID cards or mechanical keys and can be set up with passcodes to ensure security and convenience. The system is tested to 200 000 cycles to ensure long-term durability. The handles are constructed of solid metal and are in compliance with BS EN 1670 Grade 5 for resistance to corrosion.

Lever/Moveable Pad

This popular handle style is commonly used on front doors. It is advantageous because it has the benefit of preventing the door being opened without a key from the outside if the lock has not been deadlocked. This is accomplished by an external 'pad' handle which locks in the gap between the handles and lock case to prevent the latch from being withdrawn or the door being opened.

This kind of handle is designed for uPVC doors with multipoint locks that operate with a split spindle operation. This type of operation requires that the lever handle and the external pad handle be attached to the same lock case. This can be a simple change from the current uPVC handles, but it might also require changing the lock case or a brand new set of handles to accommodate this additional functionality.

These aluminum levers and movable pad door handles are ideal for uPVC doors. They feature a slide bearing that is maintenance-free fixing lugs, spring cassettes and fixing lugs supplied. The handles have a cut-out for a euro-profile, and can be mounted on various uPVC or timber doors.

The lever-movable pad is available in a variety of designs to fit a broad selection of multipoint locks. They are designed for use with split spindle locks that have an 92mm centre cylinder and require a specific set of split spindles that is supplied by the manufacturer of the lock.

These Hoppe London 77G/3831N/113 lever moveable pad handles are made from cast aluminium with an anodised finish which is resistant to corrosion and high scratch resistance. They can be used with many other Hoppe products including patio door handle door handles, french door handles and window handle replacement handles. They come with an escutcheon for security.

Lever/Moveable Snib

The lever/lever handle is among the most sought-after kinds of door handles made from upvc and is available in a variety of styles. It is comprised of two inline window handles for upvc that can be moved and is lockable with either a key or thumbturn cylinder inside. Pad handles can be used as a substitute to lever handles. It is comprised of a fixed or moveable pad which can be used to operate locks. These Fullex handles have a spring-loaded lever pad with a snib that can be activated to stop the latch from closing.

When choosing the right replacement upvc handle, be sure to take into consideration the screw centres, the back plate length, and the PZ measurement. This will ensure that the handle will work with your existing locking system.
