Pair of inset handles

S1

Art. No. 491070171

If a glass sliding door leads from the hallway into the living room and a wooden sliding door leads into the coat closet, the same Handle can create a cohesive design between the two doors. Choose the same shell shape and finish for both door leaves. If the doors are in the line of sight, the height of the handle will also catch the eye. Measure from the finished floor to the center of the Inset handle. This ensures that both handles are aligned, even if the door leaves have different amounts of clearance from the floor. 

With an inset handle, the fingertips fit into a recess and move the Door leaf sideways. This leaves a small, clear grip area visible on the Glass. When comparing options, pay attention to two different measurements: The size of the recess determines how much space your fingers have. The overhang above the Glass, on the other hand, determines whether the Inset handle extends past the wall. A shell-shaped Inset handle can also rest directly on the Glass.

How many inset handles does a double-panel sliding door need?

One pair of inset handles is intended for a door leaf: one handle is mounted on the front, the other on the back. If you want to be able to reach a handle on both door leaves from every room, plan for a total of two pairs. If you can choose the position freely, align the handles with the door closed. If they are at the same height and the same distance from the center, they form a symmetrical pair to the left and right of the closing gap.
