Front Door Handles - Is it me or does this look wrong?
Page 3 of 3
Do your construction plans have the door model and handles drawn on? if so are they drawn lower? if your plans indicate a lower height i would be showing the plan to the builder noting it is for 'construction' and it does not comply with the plan. i would them be asking for a new door seeing it is a mistake by the contractor by not complying with approved plans.
Thanks Hels. I'm not sure which way I prefer the bars. But like what mac64 and buzz were talking about earlier in the thread, a possible 'fix' they might offer is to place the handles next to the lock with the bars on the outside.
Here is another quick edit of what the above might possibly look like. Does this look ok?
[Possible fix]
I also agree the handles look better on the outside.
Just want to provide an update to my door and pull-handle situation. The builder has agreed to replace the doors.
Thank you to everyone again for adding comments/suggestions. It is very much appreciated and the support does help give confidence to 'push-overs' like me.
With this sorted, its onto the next issue haha....sigh.
Great outcome for you RedIsotope!!!
PS. "pushover"... are you kidding, not anymore- you got NEW DOORS!
I sure hope M dont do the same on my front door when it gets installed - otherwise they wont hear the end of it
To be safe I would email your builder just to let them know how exactly you want your front door to look like. That way it's down on record and no one can claim they didn't know what you wanted.

yeah - I was actually thinking about this just after I made my initial post...

Check everything, assume nothing!
Can you imagine if the new doors turned up with something wrong...
