Smiths Architectural Europa Bath Handle SN 180mm x 39mm
Smiths Architectural Europa Bath Handle SN – 180mm x 39mm
The Smiths Architectural Europa Bath Handle SN is a high-quality interior door handle crafted specifically for use on bathroom doors. With a sleek Satin Nickel (SN) finish, a durable solid zinc construction, and integrated privacy function support, this handle provides a stylish and functional solution for residential and light commercial applications. Designed for use with standard bathroom locks or turn-and-release mechanisms, this lever on back plate handle offers smooth operation, enhanced stability, and easy installation.
The handle’s dimensions (180mm x 39mm) and ergonomic sprung lever ensure a comfortable grip and precise return-to-horizontal action, while bolt-through fixings and a face-fix back plate provide long-term reliability and structural integrity.
Key Features and Benefits
✔ Bathroom-Specific Design
This handle is engineered for compatibility with bathroom locks, typically featuring a turn-and-release mechanism for privacy. It is ideal for both new installations and refurbishments in homes, hotels, and commercial settings.
✔ Lever on Back Plate Configuration
With a streamlined lever on back plate design, the handle provides a classic yet contemporary aesthetic that suits a wide variety of interior styles. The 180mm height x 39mm width back plate ensures ample coverage, concealing old screw holes or imperfections.
✔ Satin Nickel Finish (SN)
The elegant satin nickel finish adds a subtle, brushed metallic sheen to the handle, creating a clean, modern appearance while resisting fingerprints, scratches, and corrosion. It complements a broad range of bathroom fixtures and door finishes.
✔ Solid Zinc Construction
Made from solid zinc, the handle offers durability and resilience in everyday use. Zinc is corrosion-resistant and ideal for environments where moisture or humidity may be present, such as bathrooms or en-suites.
✔ Sprung Lever Mechanism
The sprung lever is designed to return smoothly to its horizontal position after use, offering a consistent feel while protecting the internal bathroom lock from excessive wear. This mechanism enhances the user experience with minimal maintenance.
✔ Face-Fix Back Plate with Bolt-Through Fixings
This handle includes both face-fix screw holes and bolt-through fixings for added strength and alignment. Bolt-through fixings are especially effective for use with bathroom locks that support secure internal mounting, reducing the risk of movement or loosening over time.
