Black Polyamide Gate Lock Handles, U-Shaped, Pair, 8mm Square Follower

This is a pair of black polyamide U-shaped lever handles with an 8mm square follower, for garden gate locks. The two handles fit one each side of the gate on a square spindle, so a single pair does one gate. Use them to replace worn, bent or broken handles, to change the look of a gate, or to fit a lock supplied without handles. The rounded U-shaped levers curve back towards the gate, so there are no sharp ends to catch clothing, and black polyamide is warm to the touch, does not rust and does not need painting. The price shown is for one pair, with a minimum order of 5 pairs.

Why use these handles

A matched pair. Both handles come together with the spindle, so the inside and outside match and line up on the lock.

Made for gates. The handles are made for outdoor gate locks, so they stand up to weather, frequent use and the knocks a gate takes.

Quick to change. Old handles come off the spindle in minutes, so a tired-looking gate can be smartened up without changing the lock.

The right look. Choose the black polyamide finish to suit the gate and the rest of the fittings on it.

Where it is used

Garden and side gates at homes, pedestrian gates at schools, parks, offices and blocks of flats, and as replacement handles on existing gate locks where the old pair has worn, faded or been damaged.

Locks and other handles

Choosing the right option

Check the lock first: these handles suit garden gate locks with an 8mm square follower. For insert locks set inside a box-section stile, choose the handle pairs with a long 120mm spindle instead. Then choose the finish: ornate black for traditional wrought iron gates, satin aluminium for modern and galvanised gates, and black polyamide for garden gates where a soft, rust-free grip is wanted. If you are not sure the handles suit your lock, send us a photo of the lock and we will check.

Fitting and care

Undo the grub screw on the old handle, pull it off the spindle, and slide the new handles on from each side of the gate. Line them up level, tighten the grub screws and check the latch springs back cleanly. Wipe the handles with a damp cloth now and then; there is no need to oil or paint them.
