Our door handles essentially consist of two parts: a solid steel frame with a nickel-plated brass offset and a replaceable handle sleeve, which is fixed to the frame using a flat-head sleeve nut (M8 15/20) made of stainless steel. Only a 5 mm Allen key is required to install and remove the handle sleeve.
The door handles are compatible with most escutcheons and long plates from our Swedish partner Kulturbeslag. We believe that the handle and fitting combinations shown on the right are particularly successful. You can order the escutcheons and long plates shown here directly from us.

Our door handle kit. Free choice of material.
Our door handles essentially consist of two parts: a solid steel frame with nickel-plated brass offset and an interchangeable handle sleeve, which is fixed to the frame using a flat-head sleeve nut (M8 15/20) made of stainless steel. Only a 5 mm Allen key is required to install and remove the handle sleeve.
The door handles are compatible with most escutcheons and long plates from our Swedish partner Kulturbeslag. Below you can see what we consider to be particularly successful combinations of handles and fittings. The escutcheons and long plates shown there can be ordered directly from us here.

Leather-covered handle: Made from southern German cowhide, purely vegetable-tanned, i.e. vegetable-tanned in both the pre-tanning and main tanning stages, and then dyed in barrels. Leather thickness: 0.45 mm.
Oak handle: Turned exclusively from the heartwood of oak trees from southern Sweden. Material thickness: 4.5 mm. The grain and color may vary naturally. Wood generally darkens slightly with use.
Hard fabric handle: Composite material made from a cotton fabric reinforced with synthetic resin, originating in the early 20th century. It is still widely used in the automotive and electrical industries. Its close relatives, Pertinax and Micarta, were and still are highly sought-after materials for knife handles. Material thickness: 3 mm.
Handle made of Lignostone®: Originates from the pulp chemistry of the early 20th century. Wooden parts, in this case red beech wood, are bonded with hardenable synthetic resins under pressure and heat. The finished product has outstanding mechanical and insulating properties. Lignostone ® is the brand name for synthetic resin pressed wood from Röchling in Mannheim, which took over the patent for the material invented by the Pfleumer brothers in 1915 in 1921. Material thickness: 3 mm.

Our door handle kit reflects a design philosophy that is mandatory for all our past and future products: THPG products should always be easy to disassemble and reassemble. The individual components of assembled items should therefore always remain detachable thanks to classic connections (threads, screws, bolts, nuts), which is also a prerequisite for their long-term repairability, which we also ensure through the constant availability of even the smallest spare parts. Our products will therefore never be glued or riveted.
New and additional: also convertible.
At the "user interface," i.e., where these items become visible, tangible, and operable, this design allows us to use different materials that you can simply choose from, but also replace at any time, either as replacement or interchangeable parts. What's more, the interchangeable materials offered for this purpose are all worth seeing and touching (and actually worthy of a museum), as they are made exclusively from highly respectable natural or early synthetic materials. Each of them is capable of giving the respective product its own, often completely different appearance. Dismountable, remountable, and interchangeable: these principles also apply to our Proteus pen series, for example.
Removable. Reassemblable. Repairable.
