What’s the Installation Methods of Door Handles?

When we install doors, we need to install door handles. Many people may say that installing a small door handle is an easy task and does not require any technology. In fact, this kind of thinking is wrong. Today we mainly introduce the installation of door knobs.

 

 

1. Installation Steps of Door Handles

 

1) The first thing is to keep the door open, because this allows you to better operate, and you can operate the door handles inside and outside at the same time. Then find the screws on the internal door handle.

 

2) Unscrew the two screws counterclockwise with a screwdriver.

 

3) Fix the outer edge of the latch plate door, use a screwdriver to remove the two screws, and pull out the various components of the latch plate outside the door.

 

4) Unscrew the two fixed latch plate door frames in a counterclockwise direction with a screwdriver until the door frame plate falls off.

 

5) Assemble the newly purchased mortise lock body, pass the door on the edge of the hole. The part of the curve of the mortise lock body should point to the outside of the door.

 

6) After completing the above steps, insert the external door handle from the outside.

 

7) The internal door handle is fixed with two screws from the inside of the door, and then thread the screw that turns clockwise from the hole on the cover to the outer door pull glove, tighten the screw with a screwdriver.

 

8) Fix the impact plate and the screws attached to the kit.

 

 

2. Precautions for Door Handle Installation

The handle is installed vertically on the upper corner of the door panel. This kind of installation is the choice of most people. The upper part of the floor cabinet door is equipped with a cabinet door handle, and the lower part of the wall cabinet door is equipped with a cabinet pull handle, which can be used directly without having to adapt to the direction in which the door panel opens. There is also no need to bend down when opening the floor cabinet door.

 

Many people also like to mount the modern door handle on the corner of the door panel horizontally. You can visually see which direction the door opens when you use it, and you can operate it directly. Some people will hang the small shovel used for cooking without opening the door, and when finishing cooking, they retract the small shovel. It is very convenient.

 

Install the wardrobe door handle horizontally in the middle of the door panel. If it is a copper-colored handle, it can have a retro feel, and it adds a sense of maturity to the pastoral style. The disadvantage is that it is not very adaptable when first using, because the side-opening door cannot be seen by visual inspection.

 

The closet door knob is installed in the middle of the door. This installation method is rarely chosen, because you must bend over to reach the handle when opening the door of the the floor cabinet. The height of the handle installation is exactly the position of the adult's knee, so it is easier to knock the leg when cooking. Therefore, it is not recommended to install the door handle in this way.

 

Through the above introduction, we hope to help you choose the appropriate door handle installation method.
