How to Remove and Replace a uPVC Door Handle | Step-by-Step Guide

In this video, we walk you through the simple process of removing and replacing an old uPVC door handle. Whether you're updating your door handle or just replacing a worn one, follow these easy steps to get the job done quickly and efficiently. Before purchasing a new handle, we recommend removing the old one to ensure you're selecting the correct size, as most doors use a standard handle size for easy replacement.

Steps to Remove the Old Door Handle:

Secure the Door: Ensure the door is safely open using a door wedge, so you don’t have to worry about it closing during the process.

Loosen Screws: Begin by removing the screws holding the handle in place. Typically, composite door handles have two screws on the inside of the door for added security. If you can’t see the screws, check for caps that may be covering them.

Remove the Handle: Once the screws are out, carefully slide both the exterior and interior handles off together. Make sure to keep hold of them to avoid losing any parts.

Steps to Install the New Door Handle:

Fit the New Spindle: Place the new spindle where the old handle was removed.

Attach the New Handle: Secure the new handle on the opposite side of the door and ensure everything lines up properly.

Tighten the Screws: Fix the new handle in place by inserting the screws through the handle and tightening them securely.

Before finishing, check that the handle moves smoothly and that the door locks and unlocks properly. Replacing your uPVC door handle is an easy DIY project that can save you both time and money. Watch the full video for a detailed guide on how to complete this simple home improvement task!
