The sprung lever is adjustable to fit a wide range of locks. This is particularly useful for doors with narrower openings where the cylinder is further away from the door. A lever that is shorter is a good choice for doors where the latch could be activated by the thumb turn inside.

Lever Pad

A Lever Pad door handle made of upvc operates differently from lever-type handles found on most doors. These handles can work off one single spindle (inline) or independently from each side by using two offset or inline spindles (pad). They are commonly employed on UPVC doors with double glazing. They come in a range of finishes and variations.

This keeps draughts out of the property. It is also the case that the majority of UPVC lever pad handles are handed, allowing you to install them on either side of the door.

The cylinder should be measured from the hole for fixing screws in the middle to the end of the cylinder including the thumb turn if you have one.
