  2. Do you have a “right-hand” or “left-hand” door (according to DIN, German Industrial Standard)?
    1. In cases of entrance doors to houses and flats, a knob is often fitted to the exterior side of the door. This prevents normal opening of the unlocked door.

      In the case of certain curved handle designs for the interior door side you need to ensure whether you need left-hand or right-hand specification.

      Example of a handle design where you need to be sure whether you need a right-hand or left-hand specification:

      DIN 107 - Rechts zeigend
      Handle showing to the right

      DIN 107 - Links zeigend
      Handle showing to the left

       

      In order to ascertain which one you want, stand in front of the interior side of your entrance door and check whether the hinges are to the left or the right on the door. In the case of a DIN left-hand door you need a handle pointing to the left and in the case of a DIN right-hand door, a handle pointing to the right.

      DIN 107 - rechts
      DIN right

      DIN 107 - links
      DIN left
