Aluminium Lever Handles: Rose Sizes, Lock Cases and Anodised Finishes

Updated 2026-11-08 · RAYEN 雷茵

What sizes do aluminium lever handles come in?

The AL range shares one rose and varies the lever. That makes it easy to run one look through a building and change only the lever shape.

• Round rose: Ø54mm on every AL model with a round rose. AL-114 has a 130mm lever and is listed for 35-50mm doors. AL-126 is the shortest at 120mm; AL-11 is the longest at 142mm.
• Square rose: AL1-114 and AL1-144 sit on a 55 × 55mm rose. AL1-141 sits on a 54 × 54mm rose and is listed for 35-50mm doors.
• Backplate: AL5801-117, AL5802-111 and AL5803-114 use a 185 × 45mm plate with a 58mm centre distance and a 5845 lock case.

The photographs show the rose sets with a matching escutcheon for a profile cylinder. On the backplate models, the cylinder cutout is in the plate.

Which lock cases do they fit?

The rose models list 5845 / 7250, and the backplate models list 5845. The lock case decides the distance between the lever and the cylinder, so it must match the case already in your door, or the case you are ordering with it. See the lock case guide before you choose.

Door thickness is listed as 35-50mm on AL-114, AL-117, AL-139 and AL1-141. For the other AL models, confirm the range with us for your door.

What does anodised mean on a lever handle?

Anodising is a finish made from the aluminium surface itself. It is not a plated layer laid on top. That is why the AL finishes carry the word Anodised: Anodised Matt Black, Anodised Sand White and Anodised Sand Gold.

Some models come in a single finish, some in two or three. AL-114 and AL-115 offer all three. AL-10 and AL-11 are two-tone, in Anodised Sand White / Matt Black. Check the finish list for each model before you build a finish schedule.

A colour name on its own does not tell you the base metal. The finish names guide shows the same colour on zinc alloy, stainless steel and aluminium.

Aluminium, zinc alloy or stainless steel?

Choose by the job, not by habit. Aluminium gives a light lever and an anodised colour. Zinc alloy offers the widest range of shapes and plated finishes. Stainless steel suits wet and heavy-use doors. Our zinc alloy or stainless guide covers the other two. Handle a sample of each before you decide for a project.

What should you check before ordering?

• The lock case in the door, or the one you will buy with the lever.
• The door thickness, against the listed range.
• Round rose, square rose or backplate, to match the rest of the building.
• The finish, from the model's own list.
• The hand of the door, if the lever shape is handed.

A worked example: an apartment block whose interior doors fall within 35-50mm and take 5845 lock cases. The designer wants matt black and round roses throughout. AL-114 fits the brief: a 130mm lever on a Ø54mm rose, listed for 35-50mm doors and 5845 / 7250 lock cases, in Anodised Matt Black. If the same project needs a square look in the bathrooms, AL1-141 keeps the finish on a 54 × 54mm rose.

What to write on the order
