Installing was super easy. Watch the install video to complete it.
I love the easy installation of the door handle and its look. The price was also good.
The installation was quick and easy. The product is working fine after installation.
Once I figured out the first direction, the other 4 installed easily, but the directions were not very helpful.

85% appreciated the sleek design, although 15% didn't
I love the clean lines and modern look of the handle on 2 different property doors.
I still like the look of the door handle, but was disappointed when the paint chipped.
I find the product visually appealing, but it lacks functionality.
74% liked the comfortable grip, though 26% found it slippery
The exterior thumb latch moves around quite a bit, indicating that the ergonomic design of our door-handle-set is not user-friendly.
83% praised the smooth finish
I found the door handle to be attractive.
82% appreciated the universal fit, although 18% encountered issues
The bottom bracket has a sliding pin/bolt which makes it easy to align the existing hole without drilling more.
Sometimes the latch falls out of place and rests at about half the height it should be, which doesn't allow enough leverage to open the door.
My door handle stopped working because the spring inside the lever failed.
81% praised the long-lasting material, while 19% experienced flaking
I'm not sure about the durability of the door handle, but since the mechanism failed, it may not be the most durable.
83% were impressed with security features, though 17% weren't
The lock looks and works great, but it takes time to unlock after inputting the code.
The door handle falls off with every use and the front door does not open, which could pose a serious security issue in case of an emergency like a fire, where we may not be able to exit the house via the front door.
Sometimes the latch falls out of place and it doesn't allow enough leverage to open the door.
I am experiencing an issue with the security features of the door-handle-set as the handle no longer locks and will not open the door after 6 weeks of use.
