Does your uPVC door handle feel floppy and loose or does it droop? These are the two most common problems you might encounter if your door handle is not working properly.
The problem is rarely with the actual door handle and more often with the spring or spindle inside which will be apparent when you remove the door handle unit. Over time, with excessive use or force, the square spindle can wear and round off and the spring becomes displaced or broken.
To fix any problems, it’s better to replace the full door handle instead of just the spring or spindle, but this is a straightforward five-minute job that anyone with a screwdriver can do.
