Re: The Door Handle Dilemma
Posted by HH56 On 2013/5/15 17:19:32
I have photos from a previous discussion on how to remove the handles so here's what we're working with.
There is a square shaft the handles operate. Each shaft has a slot approx 1/2 inch from the end across the width where the sharp bend of the spring loaded clips drop into and is supposed to lock the handle to the shaft. I think the issue is either the clip isn't strong enough or the slots and locking tang are not deep enough. Several things have been tried behind the clip to give it more pressure into the slot but none have been successful for any length of time.
