Door handle height

The height of the general door handle is fixed. For convenience, labor saving, and easy opening and closing of the door, the height of the door handle is generally 110cm. The height of the handle of some anti-theft doors will be higher, at 113cm. Different anti-theft doors have different heights. Door handle heights are also different. Notes on door handle height design: 1. Usage occasions. The door handles are used in different situations, and the height of the door handles is also different. Generally, the door handles of the door are higher than those indoors. The handle position for offices is 100cm, and for general households it is 80-90cm. Kindergarten is even lower. If it is a household door, the height of the door handle is about 110cm. 2. Consider your height. The door handle should take the height of the family into consideration. If there are no children at home, there is no need to bother. Just use the height of the door handle that sells the door. You can also calculate the average height of the family to design, which is usually around 100cm. If there are children at home, it is best to design the door handle height between 80 and 90 degrees to make it easier for children to use. If the door handle is too high, children will step on the stool if they cannot step on it, which may cause safety hazards. I remind you that if there are children at home, the height of the door should be higher to prevent the children from opening the door and going out by themselves when adults are not paying attention. 3. Elbow height. Many people consider very little when fixing door handles and are very casual. In fact, this is wrong. Doors are not tailor-made for everyone, so the height of the door handle depends on the public. If you want to achieve the best comfort when opening and closing the door, you need to fully consider the height of the user's elbow. 4. Door-opening posture. Different people have different postures when opening the door. It is most comfortable when the forearm is horizontal, because at this time the forearm and wrist joint are only subject to tension and there is no additional stress from bending and twisting. This design method is used in many high-end hotels.
