LocksOnline "Genoa" Door Handle Set on Backplate

Similarly to the Napoli series of door handles, the Genoa suite utilises the same sharp, modern design, and utilising solid a bar handle construction with crisp linear edges, graduating from a fairly narrow to a slightly thicker bar, with a rounded end to the lever.

The backplate on the Genoa series however, is slightly different.  With the same overall size and shape, the difference lies in the fine detail at the top and bottom.  Where the Napoli range has the chamfered top and bottom edges, the Napoli series sticks to a more traditional approach, following the same pattern as the sides of the backlpate, which simply 'drop off' as the backplate ends.

Whether these are for your home, office or showroom, the design and style of these handles makes them highly suitable for a whole range of settings, and in this sense, they are extremely diverse; and with three different backplates available, you can utilise these handles with door latches, sash locks and bathroom locks!

The standard blank / latch backplate is of course designed for use with standard latches - either tubular or flat-pattern latches; while the keyhole backplate is of course designed to work with a sashlock - or even a deadlock if you wished to use the handles as a dummy-handle sort of setup.  And then finally the bathroom version - which has a privacy turn on the inside and an emergency release slot on the outside - would then work with a typical bathroom lock that accepts a small spindle through the keyway area.  A range of basic latches, sash locks and bathroom locks can be seen further down the page in 'Related Products'.

These handles are also sprung, which means you can use them with the most basic of latches and locks.  There's no need for highly sprung / heavy-duty latch springs here, as the handles will return themselves to the horizontal position with their own springs; giving you more scope of use with latches etc, whilst also technically prolonging the life of your lock or latch.
