stupid quest how do you know what type of spring you need, 2 turn, 2.5 etc?

Most flat wire door handle springs have either approximately 2 turns or 2.5 turns, but there are some exceptions. Choose the thickness. A spring which is too thick may make it difficult to replace the circlip and may cause the handle to stick. A spring which is too thin will give excess play, giving the handle a loose feel. 2.5mm, 2.0mm and 1.8mm. 2-turn coils are available in thicknesses of 2.5mm, 2.0mm and 1.8mm. Please note the 1.8mm coil has slightly more than 2 turns and the 2.0mm coil has slightly less than 2 turns. In this instance ! would suggest choosing the spring which most closely resembles the number of turns of your existing spring rather than choosing on the basis of thickness. Check out the old spring if you can.

Good quality product

Brilliant. Fixed the problem and they appear to be really good quality. Only time will tell how long they will last but they have been installed for a few months now with no issues. Quick tip: Best thing to do is to take your old spring out of the handle to measure it to make sure that you get the right size.

Check size of broken one.

Make sure the wire is correct width/thick for your handle. Usually is a tight fit.

Definitely does the job.

Easy to replace door handle springs - circlip pliers essential. Suggest slipping newspaper/similar under door before unscrewing handle since dirty dust is likely to escape and soil carpeting.
