Questions & Answers

What can I do to reverse the handle so that it turns in the opposite direction Is it possible to unlock the door by turning in a clockwise direction and then turning it upside down? You don't have any ?

You may not be able to do that. To test whether it can work, you may need to do some trial and error. I do not know if it can be mounted on a shaft if the back can be slid.

Approximately what size is the handle on the back of the bag?

This domain is for D-class users only There is a trapezoid shape to the handle. Therefore, it is 4 on the longer side On the long side, it measures 3 3/4", while on the shorter side, it measures 4 3/4". The measurement is 1/8th of an inch. There's a bit more than 3" between the end of the D-shaped tube and the end of the D-shaped tube An example of the shaft inserted in the hole and the handle. I will give you a 1 One and a half inches wide and one and a half inches This should be helpful!

Do you have a latch and a strike with this door?

A double door shed can be built using this. The world exists only as you can see it. Objects at both sides of the second door keep it shut as the handles turn behind them. Put a lock on it so no one can open it. I bought a new one after my old one broke, and the replacement was easy and worked perfectly. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I hope it helps.

The depth that this handle will accommodate is what is the real depth? As stated in the 4 1/2" handle specifications, the 4 1/2 thickness capability is also listed in 4 1/2". ?

In fact, the mounting post takes up five inches from the back of the handle mount to the end of the post. I have it mounted on a steel shed and it fits through four inches of a two by four frame with room to adjust the height of the handle mount.

I find this product to be defective and unsafe
3/5

I will document here my concerns with this product given that Grand Central Supply is an Amazon storefront. Back in July of 2019, I installed the dark black L-shaped lock and handle on my son's new shed. Several months had passed since the door had been opened, both in the summer and late fall. It is normal for the shed materials to experience some expansion and contraction during the first year of use. A few days after the first week in November, my son tried to open the door. It was then that the door was stuck against the upper right corner of the frame. My son's little finger was torn deeply when the handle, which was used to open the door, broke in his hand, causing him to pull on it to open that door. (See the attached photos). Whether this particular handle broke due to a defect or poor quality of the product is unknown to me, but I am reporting this incident for safety reasons, not to mention that this lock set is now ruined and my son suffered pain and discomfort. I see David J White as being well-qualified.

To screw in screws, you will need a square bit
4/5

For the screws to go in, a square bit is needed. You can only install it if you have So, in this case, the screws are exposed on the outside of the door, so anyone who has a square bit can remove the screws. Although it remains unexplainable why the screws on the inside of the door were exposed, the locking mechanism on the inside of the door would prevent the lock from being easily removed. Although it was quick to install and works well, it seemed to work as expected. My shed lock had been installed by the factory and I was pleased that it worked to change it.

Leonard outdoor sheds need to be repaired
5/5

The lock was used to replace one on a shed at Leonard's farm in North Carolina. After contacting the maker of the product for a replacement, I didn't hear back, so I went with this brand's product. This product is built to last and it fits and works great. was greatly impressed with the included hardware, as well as the fact that it was intended for the outdoors.

I need access without having to use both hands to open Aside from being good looking, it is also functional. That's surprising this isn't available in the big home improvement My copy of the book had to be ordered.

My shed was replaced with the perfect one
5/5

It was only a matter of time until my shed handle snapped, so I ordered this to replace it. It took no more than 3 minutes (if that) to install and it has worked perfectly since then.

The new replacement is satisfactory
4/5

The original handle on our Leonard building broke after six years (after being in service). It was difficult to find a replacement handle, so I read the reviews about this and decided this would work. My order arrived faster than expected and I was able to install it myself without any problems. If it weren't for the fact that it wasn't as heavy as the original handle, I would have rated this five stars. In any case, here's hoping it lasts a little longer. We would highly recommend this item and wouldn't hesitate to buy it.

I was very happy with the purchase
5/5

I was very happy with the purchase. I love how well it works and how well it looks! All I had a problem with was getting extra keys created. We were not able to find keys that worked at the local stores like Lowe's and Agway. The main reason could have been that the key cutters were inexperienced, but I went to a locksmith and got two keys that worked for the same price.
