Once we walk into a door, it is the least thought about aspect and even when we think of doors we seldom think about door handles. Unless the handles are broken or are malfunctioning we do not give them much thought. However, thinking of them we realize that door handles serve a lot more than just opening or closing of the doors. They can be style statements.
If we start choosing the door handles, we face up many different styles, and usages. A lot of thought needs to go into choosing door handles, in fact a lot of though goes into choosing them, just it happens unknowingly. The door handles would need to be applied depending on the location of the door in the house. One needs to think about where does the door open and how many times is it opened? The handles should be chosen according to the usage of the door and also the users of the door. The size, material and shape needs to be thought after according to the user. Every door in the house may have a different quality and every room might have been decorated with a unique theme. Door handles could be chosen as a coordinated theme in different colors or could be chosen according to the theme of the room. The handles should be chosen according to the heaviness and size of the door as well. For the front doors which might be heavy and large a heavy and thick door handlers should be used. The placement of the handles on the doors also needs to be thought about. For the kids rooms and cupboards the handles could be placed a little lower for their reach and comfort. Also the placements of the door handles - especially of the cupboards - might give a unique feel to the whole look of the room.

Some more basic things needs to be considered while choosing the door handles are how often the door is used - opened and closed. Like bathroom doors at home may not be used as often as room, cupboard and main front doors. Hence a more delicate design and material could be used there. While considering toilets at public places door handlers with indications might be of help. We also have to consider which side the door is pushed from and pulled from to keep in mind the force and hence the durability of the door handles. The users' lifestyle habits need to be considered. Some people have a habit of applying force while opening and closing the doors. Where there is a lot of traffic through the doors, its best to use the automated door closers and handlers for ease of use and smoother operations as well as hygiene.
