A lever handle is a handle that releases a latch and operates when a door or gate is opened.
A lever handle is available in a variety of types, including recessed handles that unlock when the handle is raised, sliding handles, and other types of latch mechanisms, and handles are also manufactured accordingly.
Cam-type lever handles have a structure of a handle and latch in one piece and are easily unlocked by turning the handle.
Lever handles are most commonly used in recessed applications, making them suitable for use in areas where space is limited.
For example, many lever handles types are used on construction vehicles, special purpose vehicles, and public vehicles such as trains and buses.
In addition, since lever handles are not easily unlocked, they are suitable for use in equipment that is subject to vibration and are often used.
Furthermore, lever handles are used for windows, sliding and swinging doors in residences, as well as in mechanical rooms in buildings where electrical substation equipment is installed.
