Great stuff thanks. After 24 years living here I had this problem for the first time. What a carry on. Video was really helpful. Had to borrow the circlip pliers and you really can't do it without them.
Hi Mark. I've looked at lots of videos on how to repair the springs but yours is by far the easiest and clearest to follow. Thanks to your instructions I've replaced 4 door handle springs. Thank you!!
Thanks so much for the vid, I tried it today and my handles are all fixed now, saved alot of money and saved me from having to buy all new handles as the handles I have are discontinued, only struggle was the getting the circlip off but I eventually managed to get the hang of the circlip pliers and how they work and I got them all off in a breeze. Many thanks once again for the educational well constructed video.
Thank you. Great fix it video! Worth mentioning... watch out for metal powder black residue collected at bottom of inner plate and actual handle hole! Makes a mess!
Hi Mark Thank you so much for showing your viewers this awesome video. I definitely need that tool to be able to fix the interior springs of a lock at my job. :)
Thank you. Hubby says non repairable really, I'll do it while he's out. Will get the clips first, hoping they're at Bunnings NZ. thanks. too easy I hope.
Thanks for a useful description and solution to a common problem that other videos don't seem to cover. It would be better still, and more educational, if it used the terms used in the voice over were EXACTLY the ones needed when buying a part to be replaced. If you have the time, this video is worth re-shooting for better focus on the bits that matter. Also it might be good to recommend lithium grease for the lubrication as you reassemble it (I think that is the right grease!). Also please mention how easy it is for the circlip to spring off the pliers and get lost - it is best to do this job somewhere where the circlip, if it springs off, has a chance of being found!
thanks for the tutorial on this, I just bought possibly the same clips off of ebay for a fiver. I'll watch your video again to get it repaired once they arrive. thanks.
I don't even have these type handles but watched to see how to properly repair it. Great vid that was well explained with awesome camera work. Thanks bro!
Excellant video, many thanks for sharing. Just a question if I may, with so many people selling these on ebay and amazon its difficult to know which quality of spring brands to go for and which ones are less effective. Is there any particular brand or provider from your experience the springs are quality ones that will last a good time?
Hi www.ebay.co.uk/itm/133237334131?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=8Af8E9J_RIK&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=3quK8xB8Qe6&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY this is the one I purchased
My handle has no circlip - only a steel washer with notches to limit the handle movement. This seems to have been put on and held solid by friction. Trying to lever up this steel washer bends it. How do i get this off?
It could be the way its manufacturerd ,pressed on in a factory, if there is a groove where the washer is maybe lever the washer off and replace with a circlip and washer if you can. If you have some tin snips and strong pliers keep bending the washer to bend it off
Hi! I have a thumbpress door handle be Medco and the thumb press does not return to the upward position. I know the spring needs to be replaced. This model we have is discontinued. How can I find the right spring for it?
Hi Mark, i've a door where the latch within the door has broken. the hole in the latch that the spindle passes through has broken, when you pull out the spindle the hole just collapses so there is no long a rectangular hole. Not sure how to get the door open to replace the latch. Any suggestions aside from kicking in the door??
Hi there ,that is a tricky one i have been racking my brains, so if its on the side where the door shuts slid a metal ruler in between the door and the catch. If its the other side where the doorstop strip of wood is ,if you haveva multi sonicrafter you could carefully cut out a 6 inch strip where the door catch is,take that off and then slide abmetal ruler between the door and the catch. If you haven't got a sonicrafter tool use a large chisel instead,i hope that helps
@@markrocketmangrimstead thanks for the prompt reply. I managed to clear out the broken bits and with a needle nose pliers managed to pull a little lip of the latch back, door is open now and latch replaced

Luckily I was able to pry off the clip with a flat screwdriver. I lifted the edge of one side of the circlip and followed it round till it came off plus no bending of the clip.
Hi ,make sure the circlip is not broken because that holds it all to the plate,it may still be floating around when you take the 4 screws out to remove from your door. You can get circlips aswell. Goodluck

I have mandelli door handles and unscrewed them to find no cir clip. I’m struggling to remove the washer to get the old spring out?
That's unusual I haven't come across that before,are your handles vintage?
Sorry I can't help, I just googled that make and they are very expensive
THANKS
Thank you, really helpful tutorial, saved me a lot of money
Great that's the idea of it thankyou 👍
Hi, would this be the same procedure for a front door with key?
It could possibly be,if you have a handle with 4 screws into the door I don't see why not.
Unscrew the handle and take a look

I haven't got the reversible pliers so getting the clip off is hard.
You could try two screw driver's either side of the circlip but get some one to hold the handle still with gloves
