Types of UPVC Door Handles
If your door handle made of uPVC requires replacement, it is essential to choose the correct replacement for your home. A locksmith can offer and install high-security uPVC door handles that come with additional security features.
The most important measurements to take are the measurement A (also known as PZ) as well as the length of the backplate. Take these measurements to make sure your new uPVC handle will fit.
Lever/Lever
A lever is a rigid bar that is pivotally positioned around a point (known as a the fulcrum). When you apply a force to the end of the lever it tends to rotate the fulcrum to the direction of the force applied. This rotation multiplies the applied force which allows you to lift or move something that would require a greater amount of force if you attempted to apply it directly to the load.
The distance between the fulcrum to the point where you apply the force determines how far the lever can move. This is known as the mechanical advantage. The greater the length of the lever the greater the mechanical advantage. You can calculate the mechanical advantage by dividing the distance from the fulcrum to the point where you're applying the force by the distance between the fulcrum and the end of the lever.
Levers can also have different effects based on the way in which forces are applied. A lever in class 2 for instance, has a tendency of rotating in the opposite direction when the effort force is applied. If you push on the door's handle, the forces will produce rotational effects similar to this.
However, levers don't create energy. They simply increase the force you exert by converting a small amount of effort across a large distance into a greater amount of force applied over a shorter distance. Levers are used to lift heavy objects and move huge amounts of cargo. The lever principle is utilized in everyday tools like crowbars. hammer claws, fishing rods and your own legs when you stand on your car's hand brake.
Lever/Pad
Lever pad handles, also referred to as upvc door handles, have levers on each side to operate the multipoint locks. They are available in a variety of variations and finishes and are suitable for a range of materials, including UPVC, Aluminium & Timber doors. They are sold as a pair for the inner and outer door, with screws and spindles included. They are available in hand- and non-handled versions to meet the needs of different users.

The levers are lifted to open the multipoint locks and the key is turned to lock or close the patio door handle with lock. They are more secure when compared to lever handles for doors because the locking function can only be accessed by entering the door with an open key, in the event that the door is locked.
They're not as secure as a cylinder bolt but are a cost-effective option to provide extra home security. The only downside is that they don't provide the same level protection like a cylinder lock and therefore don't block access to the home if the door is left open.
