Types of UPVC Door Handles

It is essential to select the correct replacement Upvc handle for your home if handles are in need of replacement. A locksmith can provide and install high-security uPVC door handles that come with additional security features.

The most important measurements to take are the measurement A (also called PZ) along with the length of the backplate. Take these measurements to make sure the new uPVC handle will fit.

Lever/Lever

A lever is a rod that pivots around a point. When you apply a force at the end of the lever, it will tend to rotate the fulcrum in the direction of the force. This rotates the fulcrum, increasing the force applied, allowing you to lift or move something that would require more force if you tried to apply directly to the load.

The distance between the fulcrum and the point where you apply the force determines how far the lever can move. This is known as the mechanical advantage. The more the lever extends the greater the mechanical advantage. You can calculate the advantage by dividing the distance from the fulcrum to the point where you're applying the force by the distance between the fulcrum and where you will end the lever.

Levers can have different effects based on how forces are applied. A lever in class 2 for instance is prone to rotating in the opposite direction when an force of the effort is applied. The forces generated when you push on the handle of a front door can result in rotational effects similar to these.

However, levers don't create energy. They just multiply the force you exert by changing a small amount of effort applied over a long distance into a greater amount of force that is applied over a smaller distance. Levers are used to lift heavy objects and move large amounts of cargo. This is also the reason behind the levers you find in a variety of everyday tools, such as 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 form of door handle made from UPVC that has levers on both sides to operate the multipoint lock. They are available in various finishes and variations and can be used on a variety of materials, including UPVC doors, Aluminium doors & Timber Doors. They are sold in pairs for the outside and the interior doors with screws and spindles included. They are also available in handed and unhandled versions for different types of users.

These locks can be used to replace window handle existing doors made of upvc. They are usually operated by lifting up the levers to throw out all of the multipoint locks before turning the key to close and unlock. They are more secure compared to lever handles for doors as the locking operation is only accessible by entering the door with an open key, unless the door is locked.

They are not as safe as a cylinder lock, but they're cost-effective ways to increase the security of your home. The only downside is that they don't offer the same level of security as a cylinder bolt and consequently don't block access to outside if the door has been left open.

We stock a variety of lever pad upvc handles produced by the top manufacturers in the industry. 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 an 82mm cylinder center on the inside, and 62mm on the outside. They are also fitted with two spindle followers. Some come with a backplate inserted, while others can be removed to accommodate different fixing centers.

Lever/Snib

Lever latches are the simplest kind of door handles. Pressing down on the lever triggers a simple latch mechanism inside the door to keep it closed. It can also be locked using a key. Certain lever privacy handles work in the same way however, with the addition of a snib (like the doorknob).

A snib is a extremely useful tool, particularly in homes where security and privacy are essential. You can use the snib handle to stop your guest from entering until they are prepared. This kind handle can also be used on doors inside, such as those in bedrooms where you wish to restrict access from outside.

In some cases the snib button can cause problems, particularly in the case of doors and locks that are bent. If the snib button is accidentally pressed or by someone who is not familiar with it, your door may slam and lock you out. You can usually get in by knocking the door frame or letterbox. But, this is not ideal.

If your uPVC has a snib, we recommend replacing it with a smart lock from the E-LOK 7 Series. These locks can be retrofitted on double turn pull handle kits and come with cover plates that hide existing holes, to ensure a seamless installation. The E-LOK application is able to unlock doors using RFID cards or a mechanical keys. Passcodes are also offered for convenience and security. The system is tested to 200 000 cycles to ensure long-term durability. The handles themselves are made using a solid metal structure and are BS EN 1670:2007 Grade 5 for resistance to corrosion.

Lever/Moveable Pad

This popular handle style is typically used for front doors. It offers the benefit of preventing the door being opened without a key from the outside in the event that the lock has not been deadlocked. This is achieved by using a 'pad-shaped' external handle that locks into the gap between the handle and lock case.

This kind of handle is designed for uPVC doors that are fitted with multipoint locks that operate with split spindle technology. This type of operation requires the internal lever handle as well as the external pad handle to be installed to the same lock case. This can be a simple replacement of the current uPVC handle, but it may also require a lock case change or a brand new set to handle furniture.
