| handle sizesWe offer a large variety of different sizes of handles for all applications. If you are replacing handles the important size to check is the hole centres. This is the distance between the centres of the two fixing screws. The easy way to measure this is to open the door and measure with a tape or ruler from the top of one fixing screw to the top of the other. These sizes are usually in 32mm increments i.e. 96mm, 128mm, 160mm etc.Bar handles do not follow this convention with the exception of a multi purpose size 128mm handle, but are sized to match standard door heights and widths. We offer these in lengths up to 1185mm which fits as a full length handle on a 1245mm high kitchen door. |
