Where can I buy door handles similar to upvc door handles

NinaSwiss

I need to replace the door handle on my shed but having difficulties with finding the correct part. I initially purchased a 92pz UPVC door handle thinking it would do as the measurements were sufficient.

However it turned out I could not use it as the top and bottom screws holes are raised. Locksmith was reluctant to make holes in door to accommodate handle as wood is brittle. Says I need ones with flat screw holes.

Can anyone advise on where I can source the correct part for wooden doors ?

Link below hopefully demonstrates what I mean by raised screw holes:

The trouble is that the raised screw holes are necessary to provide sufficient material for the screws to screw into. Otherwise a sharp pull on the handle might simply strip the thread if it was only a couple of mm deep.

I think you'll need to either accommodate the screws or look for a different type of handle.

You could add a piece of wood to the door both inside and out to accommodate the handle. A pretty easy solution tbh, it would also strengthen the handle area if it's that brittle.

I had a similar problem with front door handle. I broke and I bought a replacement per measurements. Alas it won't stay put. Called a locksmith one of the holes needed to be made bigger.
