How to choose a door handle or lever
Start with the door itself. A sliding door needs a pull that mounts flat on the face of the panel, while a hinged door needs a lever or handle set with a latch and spindle. Think about how the hardware attaches. Some pieces fix from the front with screws you can see. Others screw through the rose plate or from the back, which hides the fasteners.
Then decide between a single pull and a full set. A pull is single-piece hardware. A set includes the lever, latch and strike plate for a complete door. If you are replacing existing hardware, check the bore hole and the door thickness first. The Knurl Privacy Door Lever, for example, is not for doors thicker than 1-3/4 in (45 mm).
Sliding door pulls
Sliding doors need a pull with a low profile so the panel can pass the frame and the wall. The Sliding Door Pull Handle is made from aluminum alloy and fixes with two screws from the front. It is sold as a single pull and comes with the two screws. Wipe it with a dry cloth to keep the finish clean.
The Slimline Sliding Door Pull is a longer option at 7-7/8 x 1-1/8 in (200 x 29 mm). It also uses aluminum alloy and fixes from the front, this time with four screws included. The extra length gives you more room for your hand on a heavy panel. Both pulls suit closet doors, barn-style interior doors and room dividers.
Levers and handle sets for hinged doors
The Knurl Privacy Door Lever is built from aluminum alloy and zinc. It fixes with screws through the rose plate, so the mounting is clean on the face of the door. It is sold as a single lever and is made for privacy doors such as bedrooms and bathrooms. Keep in mind the 1-3/4 in (45 mm) door thickness limit before you order.
The Black Manganese Steel Lever Door Handle Set is a full set for a hinged door. It fixes with screws from the back, which keeps the fasteners out of sight. The set includes 1 in (25 mm) and 1-3/4 in (45 mm) screws so you can match the screw to your door thickness. The black manganese steel finish suits modern interiors and stands up to daily use.
The Square Channel Door Handle Lock Set is made from zinc alloy and includes a latch and strike plate. The latch and strike plate screw to the door edge and frame, and the screws are included. This is the set to choose when you want a square, channel-style handle with a locking function on an entry or office door.
Materials and finishes
Aluminum alloy is light and resists rust, which makes it a good match for sliding pulls and interior levers. Zinc alloy is heavier and holds fine detail well, so it suits lever handles and lock sets. Black manganese steel is a strong steel with a dark finish that hides fingerprints and fits industrial and modern rooms.
All of the hardware on this page is cared for the same way: wipe with a dry cloth. Avoid wet cloths and harsh cleaners, which can dull the finish over time. A quick dry wipe now and then keeps the surface even and free of dust.
Measuring and fitting
Measure your door thickness before you buy a lever or set. The Knurl Privacy Door Lever fits doors up to 1-3/4 in (45 mm). The Black Manganese Steel Lever Door Handle Set ships with both 1 in (25 mm) and 1-3/4 in (45 mm) screws, so it covers the common US door thicknesses.
For sliding pulls, check the width of the stile where the pull will sit. The Slimline Sliding Door Pull is 7-7/8 x 1-1/8 in (200 x 29 mm), so it needs a flat area at least that long. The Sliding Door Pull Handle is shorter and fits narrower stiles. Count your fixing points too: two screws for the Sliding Door Pull Handle, four for the Slimline, and a latch plus strike plate for the Square Channel set.
Fixing methods at a glance
Front fixing means the screws show on the face of the pull. It is simple to install and easy to tighten later. Screws through the rose plate hide the mounting on a lever. Back fixing hides the screws behind the handle set for the cleanest look. Latch and strike plate fixing is for full lock sets, where the latch sits in the door edge and the strike plate sits in the frame.
Pick the method that matches your door prep. If the door already has holes, match the new hardware to them. If you are starting fresh, any of these methods works, as long as you have the right drill bits and a steady hand.

Questions
What is the difference between a door handle and a door lever?
A handle is the grip you pull, and a lever is a handle that rotates on a spindle to release the latch. Pulls for sliding doors are handles only. Lever sets include the lever, latch and strike plate for a hinged door.
How do I measure my door for a new lever?
Measure the door thickness at the edge. The Knurl Privacy Door Lever fits doors up to 1-3/4 in (45 mm). The Black Manganese Steel Lever Door Handle Set includes 1 in (25 mm) and 1-3/4 in (45 mm) screws for common US door thicknesses.
Can I use a sliding door pull on a hinged door?
A pull mounts flat on the door face and does not work a latch, so it will not replace a lever on a hinged door. Use a pull on sliding panels, and choose a lever or handle set for hinged doors.
What screws come with these door handles?
The Sliding Door Pull Handle includes two screws. The Slimline Sliding Door Pull includes four screws. The Black Manganese Steel Lever Door Handle Set includes 1 in (25 mm) and 1-3/4 in (45 mm) screws. The Square Channel Door Handle Lock Set includes its screws.
How do I clean a door handle or lever?
Wipe it with a dry cloth. Skip wet cloths and harsh cleaners, which can dull the finish on aluminum alloy, zinc alloy and black manganese steel over time.
