Locking Options
Lever Handle on Main Doors
A traditional lever / lever handle provides a
latching facility similar to that of a standard front
or back door.
A lever / lever handle should be used on main
entrance doors, or doors that have high a
volume of traffic/people opening and closing the
door on regular basis, such as doors that will be
operated by the general public in bars,
restaurants, showrooms etc
Note that a lever / lever handle does not enable
the doors to fold back flat upon themselves. A
magnetic door stop is used to hold the doors
back in the open position and protect the handle
from hitting the door.
Lever handles are available in White, Black, Satin Silver and INOX (Stainless Steel)
Shootbolt Handle
Shootbolt handles are used on intermediate doors to secure the folding doors in place:
Shootbolt handles can be used in place of lever handles on main doors, however they do not offer a
latch function. If you require a latch function
then a standard lever / lever handle is
required.
Shootbold handles are available in White, Black, and Satin Silver.
