Functionality and aesthetics – door handles and a rosette set combine both. A wide selection of round, oval or square door handles and rosette sets – from traditional and simple to distinctive and modern – can be found in the Heimwerkertools online shop.

Components and effect of a high-quality rosette set

A lever-on-rose set consists of two round, oval or square door roses, which are mounted on both sides of the door. One is fitted with a handle, the second with a keyhole. The roses therefore serve on the one hand as fastening elements for the door handle and on the other as an aesthetic cover for the drill holes in the door. In our online shop you will find both classic round or oval handles and roses as well as modern square door handles made from various materials such as stainless steel, brass, copper or aluminium. The motto is therefore: choose exactly what suits your home perfectly. Whether playful and ornate or simple and elegant – this will instantly enhance your home.

3 common questions about roses and door handles and our answers

We are frequently asked questions about “door handles”, about fitting lever-on-rose handles or about their features. You can find the answers to the three most common ones here:

Which material should I choose when buying roses and door handles?

Various materials are available for door handles and roses, each with advantages and disadvantages in terms of durability, aesthetics and price. While stainless steel impresses with its resilience, brass lends the room a nostalgic flair. A door with an aluminium rose in bright or matt nickel-plated finish, on the other hand, looks modern. Thanks to powder coating, aluminium is also available in various colour variations – such as black or copper. Wrought-iron roses and door handles are especially stable, durable and robust. If you buy a lever-on-rose set, you should definitely make sure that it is easy to install and that all necessary fastening elements are included. In our online shop, you can expect sets from renowned manufacturers that guarantee the highest quality and durability.

What is better: door handle and roses in round, oval or square form?

The choice between round or oval and square roses depends primarily on your personal taste and interior style. Round or oval roses and door handles fit well into traditional and classic homes, while a square lever-on-rose set is better suited to a modern living style. However, this is only a rough guideline. So it’s best to listen to your heart and choose the design you like, that matches the aesthetics of the room and feels comfortable in the hand.

What else should you consider when buying a door rose?

When buying a rosette set – whether round, oval or square – there are several factors to consider to make sure it meets your requirements. First of all, you should know exactly where the product will be used, as some door handles or rosette sets are specifically designed for indoor or outdoor use. Here we have summarised other important aspects:

• Size: Measure the thickness of your doors and make sure the set is designed for that thickness.
• Material: Consider which material best suits your requirements and find the ideal lever-on-rose set for your budget.
• Design: Choose a design that matches your interior style in terms of shape and aesthetics. Rosette sets are available in many different designs – from classic and traditional to modern and minimalist styles.
• Quality: Make sure to choose a high-quality set that is robust and durable. At Heimwerkertools, you will find exclusively products from well-known manufacturers.

Country standards: It is also important to observe the respective country standards. For example, with rosette sets the standards for hole spacing or the thickness of square spindles vary from country to country. The distance between the handle and the keyhole is also relevant.

This so-called distance standard is 72 mm in Germany for internal doors with a bit key handle set or lock rose, 72 and 92 mm for front door handles or security sets with euro profile cylinder, and 78 mm for bathroom and WC lever sets.

In Austria, a distance standard of 90 mm is customary for bit key handle sets, while for front door handles with euro profile cylinder it is usually 88 mm. In Switzerland, the distance standard is consistently 78 mm.
