Description Then Apex Lever/Lever Short Backplate Door Handle is suited to external doors where a standard lever/lever setup is required. It fits uPVC, composite, and timber doors using standard 92mm euro cylinder multipoint locks. Customers typically choose this type when replacing worn handles and wanting something that feels solid and stays aligned over an extended period. The short backplate provides a more compact and modern look. The lever shape is designed to feel comfortable in hand while maintaining a balanced appearance. The white finish also works well with common doors, making it suitable for both modern installations and clean replacements where the handle looks intentional rather than purely functional. The handle uses 92mm PZ centres with 122mm screw fixing centres. This makes it compatible with common multipoint locks and easy to install as a replacement. With an overall length of 210mm, it provides stable fixing while keeping the door face uncluttered. The spring-assisted mechanism is also why the lever returns to a horizontal position after every use. The coating is tested to BS EN 1670:2007 Grade 5, meaning it has passed 480 hours of salt spray testing for corrosion resistance. The Apex handle is also suitable for exposed external environments and is supplied with screws and spindles for door thicknesses between 38–72mm. Backed by a 10-year mechanical guarantee, along with surface guarantees depending on finish type, this handle provides added confidence for long-term use.
