Will this handle set (Product Code: 40-043) work for a door that is 1 1/2 inches thick?

The Sears storm door replacement handle 40-043 is for 1-3/4" thick doors. This replacement handle should work for a 1-1/2" thick door: when you install a handle set on a thinner door than the handle set is made for you may have to file down the spindle.

This replacement handle should work for a 1-5/8" thick door. Sometimes when you install a handle set on a thinner door than the handle set is made for you have to file down the spindle but in your case you may not have to make any adjustment to the replacement handle.
