Long Plate Door Handle

I bought this handle as it is longer than most and therefore covers the markings from the previous one. However, it is very long and didn’t look quite right. Otherwise it’s very good quality and the finish is just right.

Look terrific, but looks aren't everything.

We are renewing all our internal doors and starting up stairs, we were recommended this site by a chap at our local (independent) hardware store and were impressed by the range on offer. After careful consideration we opted for these beauties and ordered 2 for starters (we need 8 in all plus one bathroom type and the price break is 5). They arrived promptly and were well packed. This is were the the praise stops. I cannot adequately express our disappointment with the quality of this product, the main body is manufactured from pressed metal that is so thin they are bent, the mechanism holding the handle to the main body actually protrudes beyond the formed lip that is the edge of the handle which means to fit them flush to the door the through hole for the latch bar needs to be around 20mm diameter (or counter-bored both sides), this also means that you can't actually see that the back plate is bent because the whole thing rocks around on a flat surface. I placed it over the edge of the existing door to observe the degree of bend, which was alarming and would need some persuading to straighten which I wasn't prepared to chance achieving with the screws supplied. I promptly returned for full credit and resorted to a well known DIY chain where I could feel the quality before parting with the cash. At the time of writing I am still awaiting credit, although I have received confirmation of pending payment in full and will not be out of pocket for carriage.

Perfect for the job!

I bought this item to match existing door furniture. It came well packaged and is of a good quality. The price was more reasonable than what I could purchase this for locally. Overall I am very satisfied and will use IronmongeryDirect again.

very stylish

bought 3 pairs of these handles to put on my new doors. They feel durable and are positive in the lock
