Quick answer
Installing a Buster + Punch fixed single-sided linear door handle is straightforward: mark your fixing points, drill pilot holes, and secure the handle with the supplied torx screws. The main pitfall is misaligning the handle with the door edge, so careful measuring is essential.
Why choose a fixed single-sided handle
A fixed handle does not turn or latch, making it ideal for doors that only need a pull or push action, such as cupboard doors, sliding doors, or internal doors where a separate latch is used. The linear-knurl detailing adds a subtle texture that hides fingerprints and gives a premium feel.
What you need before starting
Check that your door is at least 35 mm thick to allow the screws to bite securely. You will need a pencil, a tape measure, a drill with a 3 mm bit for pilot holes, and a screwdriver (or a drill with a Torx bit) for the supplied torx screws. The handle comes with a laser-etched Buster + Punch insignia; ensure this faces outward for the intended aesthetic.
Installation steps
- Mark the fixing positions: Hold the handle against the door at your desired height (typically 36–42 inches from the floor for a standard door). Use a pencil to mark the two screw holes through the handle’s mounting holes. Common mistake: marking only one hole and assuming symmetry—always mark both separately to avoid a crooked fit.
- Drill pilot holes: Use a 3 mm drill bit to drill pilot holes at the marked points. Drill straight and to a depth equal to the screw length (about 25 mm). Checkpoint: drilling too deep can weaken the door; too shallow and the screws may not grip fully. Pilot holes prevent the door from splitting and make screw insertion easier.
- Attach the handle: Position the handle over the pilot holes and insert the supplied torx screws. Tighten them by hand first to ensure alignment, then use a screwdriver or Torx bit to secure until snug. Common mistake: overtightening, which can strip the screw head or damage the handle’s finish. Stop as soon as the handle feels firm against the door. If the handle wobbles after tightening, remove it, check that the pilot holes are straight, and reinsert the screws.
