REPLACE OLD OR BROKEN DOOR HANDLES – When your door handle is broken, old or unsightly, don’t replace the door entirely, just get a new sliding patio door handle set! This handle is for mortise-style doors and features an offset thumbturn/lever. INCLUDES – The patio door handle set comes with matching inside and outside white diecast handles that fit on door thicknesses that range from 1-5/8” to 1-3/4” thick. Mounting hole centers are 3-15/16”. NON-HANDED CONSTRUCTION – The sliding door handles can be used on either right- or left-handed doors by reversing the handle on the mounting plate. EASY INSTALLATION – Installation is quick and easy with all hardware included. The white diecast lever operates various mortise latches installed in the door (mortise latch sold separately). The handle set is non-keyed, but a lock can be added. INSTALLATION NOTES, Includes two sets of installation screw lengths to accommodate varied door thickness and fasteners should be hand tightened only. See model C 1317 for the centered lever version. Features offset handle that can be reversed by unscrewing the screws in the back and switching the D handle. A Phillips head screwdriver is required for installation. For further dimensional information, please see the line drawing.

fits perfectly! fits handle sets

I came home one night and my wife told me there was something wrong with the handle and lock on our patio door. Found this on Revain, adjusted the image to what I had and compared my measurements to the sizes listed in the post. It looked like an exact match. Ordered it that evening and it came out the next day (a day early). Although it was only 5 degrees outside, I took the risk and installed it. It installed in 5 minutes and worked great.

Pros
  • One year trial
Cons
  • Doubt

Ready to send back.

I received a replacement for this door handle. There were NO instructions in the package so I had no idea how to put the screws in. I didn't find the screws long enough, so I ordered replacement screws in two sizes. Then I read the customer reviews and one of the first pictures shows the screws being screwed in. It's possible my order didn't have instructions because it was an opened and returned item. My sincere thanks to Revain customers who are generous in posting pictures and comments…

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

Our door handle problem has been solved

Purchased to replace the handle on an existing wooden sliding glass door where the old handle had broken after 20 years of regular use. This pen was an almost identical replacement and appears to be more durable than the previous one. Installation was quick, with no new holes to drill or other parts to swap out. It was also easy to switch from left-hand drive to right-hand drive. A warning; While the description says it will support a door up to 1 3/4" thick, the screws that come with it are…

Pros
  • Nice packaging
Cons
  • Security

Grip is OK, hardware is poor

Glad I bought it for $16 instead of the full $35+. I'm also glad I had an old broken pen to swap out parts for and very grateful to other reviewers who had the same issue as me. After playing around with the screws and trying to tighten them, I read a few reviews and saw that the screws they give are either too long or too short. Luckily my old doorknob had filler material so I could tighten the big screws because I don't have the ability to cut them to fit. I'm deducting 2 stars for this…

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors

The grip is good. Hardware - no.

I see other comments saying the same thing. It comes with 4 long screws to hold the panels together on opposite sides of the door. The screws are too long. I assumed the kit should have 2 long screws and 2 short screws, which was a mistake as you only need 2 screws. I used old screws from the pen I was replacing and blacked out the heads with magic marker. Then 4 teams attached the handle to the plates. 2 of them were too long. So I used a lock washer on two of the bolts, which shortened their…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

The perfect sliding door handle is finally here!

I've owned my house since 2006 and had to replace both sets of sliding doors with other handles that were a bit cheaper but they kept cracking and breaking after about a year and the latch mechanism never seated properly. Well, with these pens, everything has changed! Installation was perfect (but remember you may have to unscrew and flip the inside handle (with the latch lever) depending on the direction of your door and where the holes are) and it was an easy install by one person who was…

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Definitely a bad product

Need 1/4 " holes on the outside of the door.

We've had to change the handle on our sliding door so many times I've lost count. interacted with the mortise hook lock. I signed up for decided this one with the lever built in, as opposed to a similar item C1225 (ASIN B00DS5H0W0) There were two installation problems, one of which was strictly a problem with the old handle (details omitted) The only problem with the new handle, and it was relatively small, was that the handle holes on the outside of the door were too small for the inside bolt…

Pros
  • Easy install
Cons
  • Price for a piggy bank

The pen itself is fantastic. It's strong

The pen itself is fantastic. It's durable, minimalist and very beautiful. At first I wasn't aware that it was the same handle on both sides, because I confused the picture with a narrow, rectangular handle on the outside. I was worried it wouldn't fit my screen, but it fits perfectly and is easier to use with the loop handle on the outside. There were instructions on the packaging, but I didn't see them. There's not really much to do other than make sure your screws are in there from the…

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Protection

Exactly what I was looking to replace with an external sliding door handle

I don't write many reviews but thought I'd write about it because I was considering buying this sliding door handle set to give myself a REAL outdoor handle to give at my door. All I had was what I take to be a solid doorknob, not a HANDLE to slip your hand into on the outside of my slider. Typical for construction quality windows and doors. Having just replaced a sliding door in my previous home, I knew they make handles that have a REAL handle inside and out. So I set out to find something to

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • unreliable
