Door handle explained simply – in technical terms, door lever handle

Door handles and door knobs undergo standardized testing procedures according to DIN EN 1906, which evaluate their long-term function, corrosion resistance, angle adjustability and assembly tolerances.
The door handle is a central component of a door. When this handle, also known as a door lever, is operated or pressed down, the latch is pulled out of the strike plate in the door frame, allowing the door to be opened. Generally, an entrance or interior door has two door handles connected by a spindle running through the door leaf. This spindle is also known as a lever handle spindle. Both the door handle and the lever handle spindle are part of the door handle set.
Door handles come in a wide variety of styles, designs, and variations. They are usually made of metal, but there are also door handles made of wood or plastic. For security reasons, handle sets should ideally be of high quality and made of steel to make it more difficult for burglars to break in using drills and similar tools.
