VBH is offering a sprung lever on rose for aluminium residential and bi-fold doors.

The handle, which is part of the Greenteq Aspire range, is available in eight colours of the Greenteq suite of matching residential door, patio door and window furniture. As such, all finishes are covered by the Greenteq 10-year surface and performance guarantee.

The handle features a strong spring to ensure that it always returns to the 90° position, with no handle droop.

VBH marketing manager, Gary Gleeson, said: “The lever is manufactured from grade 304 stainless steel, which is a fittingly high quality material for top end doors, but is, of course, very heavy. Our Greenteq designers paid a lot of attention to ensuring that the perfect strength spring was required. It’s a fine balance between preventing droop and not having it snap to 90° too strongly.”

The handles have concealed fixings, and there are complementing 4mm escutcheon plates that clip into place on the door. No screws are required to fit the escutcheons.

Gary added: “With the continued and increasing popularity of aluminium doors, it’s important that we continue to bring in new products to suit. The Aspire sprung lever is just one of many products within our range that has been designed specifically for this end of the market. We have always been ‘big in aluminium’ and are the preferred hardware supplier for alu manufacturers of all sizes.”
