The most important measurements to take are the measurement A (also known as PZ) and the length of the backplate. Check these measurements to make sure that your new uPVC handles will fit.

Lever/Lever

A lever is a solid bar pivoted around a point (known as a fulcrum). When you apply force to the end of the lever it tends to rotate the fulcrum to the direction of the force applied. This rotation multiplies the force applied and allows you to lift or move something that would require a greater amount of force if you tried to apply it directly to the load.

The distance between the fulcrum to the point where you apply the force determines the distance the lever is able to move. This is referred to as the mechanical advantage. The more the lever is extended more, the greater the advantage in terms of mechanical. You can calculate the mechanical advantage by dividing distance from fulcrum point to the point at which you are applying force by distance between fulcrum point and the end of lever.

Levers can produce different effects based on the method by which the force is applied. A lever in class 2 for instance is prone to rotating in the opposite direction when the force applied to it. If you push the handle of a door, the forces will produce similar rotational effects to this.

However, levers don't create energy. They multiply the force by changing small amounts of effort applied over a longer distance into larger amounts of force applied over shorter distances. This is what allows you to complete more work in less time, and it is the reason why levers are frequently employed to lift heavy objects or moving large quantities of cargo. This is also the reason behind the levers that are found in many everyday tools such as crowbars and fishing rods, claws for hammers, and even your own legs when you stand on the hand brake of your car.
