It is usually made of metal (either hardened steel or galvanized iron) and when the door handle is pressed down, it activates the lock socket, which then pulls the lock latch out of the strike plate.  <\/p>\n<p>Since the pusher pin is basically a square made of metal, it is also known as a square pin. Another, but rather rare, term for it is &#8220;door handle pin.  <\/p>\n<h2>Assembly of handle sets with trigger pin<\/h2>\n<p>Have you decided to equip one or more of your doors with a new handle set and are currently looking for an expert who can professionally install the two door handles of a set that are connected to each other by a handle pin? We are happy to help you with this undertaking. Our locksmiths are very familiar with handle sets, door handles (door handles), square pins (handle pins) and fittings and also have the necessary know-how and the necessary professional equipment to carry out the assembly work perfectly.   <\/p>\n<p>Before you place the order with us for the installation of the new handle set(s) with handle pin, you will receive a non-binding fixed price offer from us. Only after you have received this offer will you decide whether we will receive the order or not. We are a fair, transparent and customer-oriented locksmith who attaches great importance to an intact reputation.   <\/p>\n<h2>Replacement and repair of pusher pins<\/h2>\n<p>In addition to assembly work, we also offer the replacement or repair of worn or defective trigger pins. For example, very frequent and long-term use of the door handle can round off the edges of a handle pin. In such a case, it is important to replace the handle pin as soon as possible so that pressing down on the door handle continues to pull the lock latch out of the strike plate.   <\/p>\n<h2>Emergency intervention in the event of a defective trigger pin<\/h2>\n<p>Do you have a problem with your door handle or your handle pin at an unchristian time and need locksmith help as soon as possible? For emergency operations in the event of a defective or worn trigger pin, we are exactly the right unlocking service for you. We are a real emergency locksmith who is on duty around the clock, every day of the year.   <\/p>\n<p><strong>Image source:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/commons.wikimedia.org\/wiki\/File:Dorvrider.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cavernia<\/a>,   <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-sa\/3.0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">CC BY-SA 3.0<\/a>, via Wikimedia Commons<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Handle pin in square shape that connects a pair of door handles with attached rosettes.
