How do I tighten my bathroom flat door handle

Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 3.54 PM

The handle on my bathroom apartment door is loose. I can't see any obvious screws or anyway to get to them. The flat was built in 2005. Can anyone offer advice on how to access the screws? Thanks for your help

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

The handle normally has a plate covering where the screws will be you can pop it off easily enough there’s where you will see the screws

You should be able to either unscrew or lever off the circular part of the handle that is against the door . Also check for grub screws under the handles.

Hi there, this is something that I find helpful when doing bathroom handles- Use an awl tool to depress the button and remove the inside handle. Then unscrew the inside trim ring (lefty/loosey) to expose the screws that hold the whole assembly together. Tighten them up and put them back together.

It probably has a sleeve or a cover over it, try prizing it open with a flat head screwdriver.
