M3 Door Handle Fixing Screws Use For Door Handle Roses Knobs and Escutcheons 4Pieces

Excellent.!My internal door (hollow) screws were turning…Bought these fixing screws..amazing invention.

A couple of our doors are basically hollow. Fitting handles has, until now, been a nightmare and quite often closing the door would result in the handle coming off.They are pretty easy to fit (just making the ends meet in the door can be fiddly) and do the job well. I took one star off as, for me, the break off points on the bolt are just a few mm in the "wrong place". It means the break off point I used makes the bolts a mm or two too long - it is not noticeable to most, but I know it and means the bolts are not 100% tight, just "firm". But don't let that put you off, just the thickness of my doors and handles combined....

Perfect fit and great service.

These do work as intended. However, it appears that to make them easier to cut there's a compromise on the hardness. This does make them vulnerable to stripping out the head when fitting them.Having used them I would advise.... 1) cut only on the blank sections to avoid damaging the run-in on the threaded parts 2) use a good sharp pair of pliers for the cut, do not try to snap them because they will bend 3) assemble the two parts by hand to confirm they mate properly before trying to install them, they should go together easily, if they don't then tidy up the ends with a small file 4) be sure to use two screwdrivers of the correct size and in perfect condition to avoid damaging the heads. These are not the highest quality but once fitted will serve the purpose.

I am surprised that these fixings are not more widely available as a standard DIY item. I have encountered the same problem with multiple hollow doors over the years where the screw fixings slowly work there way loose or were not drilled correctly in the first place. The handle can then become loose with no easy way to tighten it again. These fixings eliminate the need for a tight hole in the (usually very thin) door panel. Over a year since I installed these and they are still going strong. The head and thread did look as though it would be too small for my handles but they fit okay and are nicely recessed as a result of the small size.

These are a bit fiddly to fit so some patience is required. Maybe slightly over order by a couple just in case you cut them in the wrong place ( these are are easy to cut with some pliers ) These seem a very good solution to the common problem of original small screws on the door handle coming loose, and making the original screw holes in the door to big to re screw. You can not use larger screws because you will not be able to re fit the handle rose back on. These will not be suitable if you are trying to use on say bathroom door handles with a dead lock inside the bathroom as these locks are bigger inside the door itself, which would mean you would have to try and drill thorough the metal lock!!They worked.

For 5 years, I've been trying to screw door handles back on. The tiny screws put in on our new build door handles just pull out of the wood after a few years of use.Finally , Ive found the solution. The door handles and latches are designed for these inter screws.
