Compatibility and preparation
The Sparta handle is designed for standard internal door applications with a 51mm round rose preparation. Before installation, verify that your door has the correct pre-drilled holes to accept a 51mm rose. The handle works with standard latch and lock mechanisms compatible with round rose fittings. Check that your door thickness falls within the manufacturer's specified range to ensure the 67mm overall projection functions correctly. The removable rose allows you to adjust the handle position slightly if needed during fitting.

Installation and fixing
The removable rose design simplifies installation. Slide the rose onto the spindle and secure it to the door face using the provided fixings, ensuring it sits flush. The knurled lever then slides onto the spindle and is secured with the grub screw. Tighten all fixings firmly but do not over-tighten, as this may damage the finish or the handle mechanism. Once installed, test the lever action to confirm smooth operation before final tightening. The matt satin black nickel finish should be handled carefully during installation to avoid fingerprints or marks.
- Remove the rose from the spindle for easier initial fitting
