Hello! This handle set is very similar to our 82-080. I believe this might be exactly what you're looking for. Review our photos na dimensions and let me know if you agree. |

Oh wow, you're right. I'm sorry for not noticing that before. I was so focused on the handle that I didn't notice the mortise. The 82-080 is designed to be used with a mortise like our 82-238, which is obviously way too big to fit in your door. What you have now looks more like our 82-229. I've actually never in my life seen a handle set like this used with this type of mortise. This is a first. I think someone might have gotten creative when they installed this handle and they ended up mixing and matching parts. I'm wondering if they used a thumb lever from a different handle set to make the 82-080 compatible with the 82-229. But then, why use this kind of handle set in the first place? Maybe they liked the style. Either way, I can tell you with confidence that your handle is not meant to work with your mortise. These are incompatible parts that somebody, at some point, forced to be compatible. We'll need to retrace their steps. To start, can you remove the handle from the door and show me the hole pattern underneath? Please also measure them for me. You'll definitely find a pair of holes (top and bottom) that are 4-15/16" apart, but I think you may also find a second pair of holes that are 3-15/16" apart. I'd also like a clear picture of the thumb lever that interacts with the mortise. |
