A lever handle lockset is a type of door hardware that combines a lever handle with a locking mechanism. This design allows users to easily open and close doors, making it a popular choice for both residential and commercial settings. Lever handles are often easier to operate than traditional knobs, especially for individuals with limited hand strength. These locksets come in various styles and finishes, allowing for customization to match different door designs. They can be used on interior and exterior doors and may feature different locking options, such as deadbolts or privacy locks, to enhance security and privacy.
