When to choose polycarbonate
There are three reasons to choose one: a very lightweight door that cannot support the weight of a zamak lever handle, a setting where metal is not permitted, or a tight budget across a large number of doors. Otherwise, a metal lever handle will feel better to use and last longer.
Care
Clean with soapy water. Avoid alcohol and solvents, which weaken polycarbonate and make it brittle over time.
Other materials
To compare materials, see our zamak lever handles, and those in aluminium and stainless steel.
