Frequently Asked Questions
Will this handle fit my existing bifold door?
This handle is designed for Fenster Genesis bifold and sliding door systems. Check that your existing handle uses 43mm screw hole centres and a 7mm spindle before ordering. If in doubt, remove your current handle and measure the fixing centres and spindle diameter.
What key does this handle use?
It uses a standard Fenster key (not included). If you already have Fenster handles elsewhere in the property, the same key should work.
Is a spindle included?
Yes — a 7mm x 45mm spindle and fixing screws are included in the box.
Can I use this on a sliding patio door as well as a bifold?
Yes, this handle is suitable for both bifold and sliding patio door systems that use the Fenster Genesis hardware platform.
Is the chrome finish prone to tarnishing?
The polished chrome finish is durable and resistant to tarnishing under normal indoor use. Wipe clean with a soft, damp cloth — avoid abrasive cleaners.
