We have a reasonably old front door. It is double glazed, but not a upvc like the new ones are.
The handle seems a bit rubbish on the outside and think it will probably fail before long. Just wondering if anyone can recommend a replacement?
The ones of seen on various websites are really narrow (for the new style doors)
My handle looks like this


Thanks for any advice

Provided that you get the right spindle size and ideally , but not essential , the fixing holes match the backplates it makes no difference when replacing just the handles. Look on Ebay , measure carefully , and you will find a replacement. Easy job.Forgotten but not gone.0
