Compatibility considerations

A replacement handle is chosen to match the existing door preparation — bore size, backset, and thickness — rather than assumed to fit universally. Significantly different hardware may need extra adjustment.

Related concerns should be mentioned early, such as a door that does not close properly for reasons unrelated to the handle itself. Rekeying and security-lock work fall outside this scope.
