Maintenance and Cleaning of Zinc Alloy Plate Handles
Zinc alloy door handles are popular due to their cost-effectiveness, durability, and ease of manufacture. While zinc alloy is relatively corrosion-resistant, proper cleaning and maintenance are still necessary to extend its lifespan.
Cleaning Steps
Daily Cleaning: Gently wipe the door handle with a dry cloth to remove surface dust.
Deep Cleaning: Wash the zinc alloy door handle with a mild soap solution, rinse with clean water, and dry with a soft cloth.
Preventing Corrosion: Avoid using strong acidic or alkaline cleaners to prevent damage to the zinc alloy surface. After cleaning, you can apply a neutral lubricant to create a protective film against oxidation and corrosion.
General Maintenance Tips
Avoid using steel wool or other abrasive materials to scrub the door handle to prevent surface scratches.
Regularly check the screws on the door handle to ensure they are tight and secure.

To install a door handle, you'll have to measure and mark where the parts will go.
First, measure about 100cm from the floor using a tape measure and mark this spot on the door. This will be where the door handle is installed. Alternatively, you can measure the other door handles in your house to ensure that you install your door handle evenly.
You'll also have to measure the strike plate. Do this once the door handle has been installed by marking where the latch will sit on the doorframe when the door is closed. You can then trace the strike place around that mark to ensure you carve out the proper size.
How to Choose Zinc Alloy Plate Handles?
Steps to consider in choosing the right door handle:
Design style: Consider the design style theme you desire for both the external and internal look of your door handles.
Security factors: For your front door, evaluate whether you require additional locking security, such as double deadbolts or smart locks, with your pull handles or lever door handles.
Door size and compatibility: Take into account the size of your door, ensuring that the door handle is proportionate and not overly large. Also, consider handles that will fit the door, especially if you have a screen door in front. Pay attention to the handle's projection to prevent it from protruding too far out.
Room functionality: Consider the room to which the door leads, whether it's a wardrobe, laundry room, toilet, bathroom, bedroom, or any other space.
Required function: Determine the function you need for your door handle, such as a dummy set, passage set, privacy set, or keyed set.
Material selection: Choose the type of material for your door handles based on your environmental conditions. If you live in a seaside area or require handles that can withstand various elements, consider stainless steel. Zinc die-cast door handles are suitable for indoor use.

User-friendliness: Take into account the comfort, practicality, and function of the door handles, especially if they will be used by the elderly or children.
How to Install Zinc Alloy Plate Handles?
Measure the height for the door handle
There are a number of ways to work out the height for your door handle. You can measure the height of the handles on the other doors in the house and use that. Alternatively, you can read the instructions that come with the door handle kit and use that height. Or you can use the standard height for a handle, which is 1050mm off the floor. After deciding the height of your door handle, measure and mark it on the side of the door. Before you start installing the door handle, place a door wedge under the door to stop it from moving while you're working. Move the wedge as you change the side of the door you're working on.
Mark where the door handle will go
Use the template provided in the door handle kit to mark where you will be drilling. Line the template up with the mark you've made for the height of the door handle. Mark on the template where you will drill holes in the side and front of the door. Repeat this process to mark where you will drill on the other side of the door.
Drill pilot holes in the door
Use a 2mm drill bit to drill pilot holes in the door where you marked on the front, back and side of the door, using the template. Before you drill, make sure you are square to the door. Don't drill right through the door as this might cause the wood on the opposite side to splinter.
Drill into the pilot holes
Before starting this next step, read the instructions in the door handle kit, every kit may be slightly different. After drilling the pilot holes, insert a larger drill bit in the cordless drill. Use this to make all of the pilot holes on the front, back and side of the door larger. Don't let the drill bit go through the other side of the door because it can make the wood splinter.
Drill a hole for the spindle
Attach the 25mm spade bit to the cordless drill. Make sure the door is properly wedged and won't move, drill the spade bit into the centre hole on the front of the door. Repeat this drilling process on the other side of the door. These holes are where the spindle for the door handle will be inserted.
Drill a hole for the barrel
Using the spade bit in your cordless drill, make a hole in the side of the door. This is where the barrel will be inserted. Before you start drilling, make sure you are square to the side of the door, so that the hole that you drill is at the correct angle.
Mark around the faceplate
Insert the latch from the door handle into the hole you've drilled in the side of the door. Use a pencil to draw around the faceplate. Remove the latch and faceplate from the door. Use a sharp utility knife to cut around the outline of the faceplate.

Use the sharp chisel and the hammer to chisel out a hole for the latch. The cuts made with the utility knife are your guidelines as to where to stop chiselling. Also, chisel inside the hole for the latch to fit. Insert the latch into the side of the door to see if its faceplate sits flush to the door. If it doesn't, chisel some more until it does sit flush.
Attach the latch to the door
Insert the latch into the side of the door. With a 2mm drill bit, drill pilot holes where the screws will attach the latch to the door. Use the cordless drill to drill in the two screws at the top and bottom of the latch.
Install the striker plate
To work out where to install the striker plate, almost close the door and mark on the door frame, where the middle of the barrel is. Hold the striker plate against the door frame, so that it's in the centre of the latch. Mark the top and bottom of the striker plate on the door frame.
Drill a hole for the striker plate
Using the mark where the middle of the barrel is, drill a pilot hole in the centre on the inside of the door frame. Then attach the 25mm spade bit to the cordless drill and drill into the pilot hole.
Draw around the striker plate
Hold the striker plate up against the hole you drilled on the inside of the doorframe. Line it up with the top and bottom lines you drew on the side of the door frame. Use a pencil to draw around the striker plate. Remove the striker plate from the door. Use the utility knife to cut around the outline of the striker plate.
Chisel the recess for the striker plate
After cutting around the outline of the striker plate, use the sharp chisel and the hammer to chisel out a recess for the striker plate. The cuts made with the utility knife are your guidelines for where to stop chiselling. Insert the striker plate into the recess to make sure it sits flush. If it doesn't, chisel out some more wood.
Attach the striker plate
Hold the striker plate against the inside of the door frame. Using a 2mm drill bit, make two pilot holes for the screws to attach the striker plate. Then use the cordless drill to secure the two screws at the top and bottom of the striker plate.
Attaching the handles
Remove the faceplates from the two handles. Insert the two grub screws into the smaller holes in the door and insert the bolt into the larger hole. Put a faceplate on one of the handles but before attaching it, make sure the handle turns in a downward motion. Insert a screw into one of the holes in the faceplate and slip the handle over the barrel, making sure the screw, goes into the grub screw. Tighten the screw. Repeat this procedure to attach the other handle. Tighten the grub screws on both handles. Tighten the screws at the top and bottom of the handle to secure it to the door.
Attach the faceplates
Slide the faceplate over the door handle and snap it into place. Use the allen key provided in the door handle kit to lock and secure the faceplate. In this kit, the hole for the allen key is at the bottom of the faceplate. Repeat this process to attach the other faceplate.
