The Art of Door Handle Maintenance
Proper maintenance is key to ensuring that your door handles not only look good but also function smoothly for years to come. Bob will guide you through the essential steps needed to keep your handles in pristine condition. From cleaning and polishing techniques to lubrication and fixing loose screws, our Handle Doctor has got you covered.
Cleaning and Polishing
Your door handles are constantly exposed to dirt, dust, and fingerprints. To maintain their shine, Bob recommends regular cleaning with a mild soap and warm water solution. Gently wipe the handles with a soft cloth, avoiding abrasive cleaners that may damage the finish. For stainless steel handles, you can use a specialized stainless steel cleaner for an extra polished look.
Lubrication and Tightening
Over time, door handles may become stiff or squeaky due to lack of lubrication. Bob suggests applying a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the moving parts of the handle mechanism. This will ensure smooth operation and prevent unnecessary wear. Additionally, he advises checking and tightening any loose screws regularly to avoid handle misalignment.
Handle Repair and Customization
Has your favorite door handle seen better days? Don't worry, Bob knows all about handle repairs and can guide you through the process. Whether it's a loose handle, a broken lever, or a faulty lock mechanism, our Handle Doctor has the solutions.
Repairing Loose Handles
If you have a loose handle that wiggles or feels unstable, Bob suggests examining the mounting screws behind the handle plate. Tightening them with a screwdriver should resolve the issue. In case the screws are stripped or damaged, he will show you how to replace them easily to restore the handle's stability.
Fixing Broken Levers
Broken levers can be frustrating, but replacing them doesn't have to be. Bob will walk you through the steps of removing and replacing a broken lever, ensuring your door handles are back in working order in no time. He will even provide recommendations on where to find high-quality replacement parts.

Whether it's adding a fresh coat of paint to match your interior decor, accessorizing with stylish backplates, or exploring unique finishes, he knows how to transform ordinary handles into extraordinary ones.
