Removing bathroom door handle (with separate bolt for latch)
OK, I'm stuck. I have a bathroom door handle with two spindles that I
want to remove. I have taken all visible screws out - but still holds firm. I dont want to damage it - so has anybody faced this problem before and have a suggestion? TIA Phil |

Removing bathroom door handle (with separate bolt for latch)
Got a picture? Hurrah, I was just taking some pictures when I spied a third allen screw holding the bolt knob on. This was a smaller gauge. With that removed the job was done! Thanks for all your help! Phil |
