The Charlton Manhattan Lever Door Handle (Pair) is a bold, architectural lever handle designed to complement the Manhattan range of internal doors. Featuring a more square-edged profile than the Mercer handle, it offers a strong, contemporary look while maintaining a clean, minimalist finish.
Finished in matt black, the Charlton handle delivers a sleek, understated aesthetic that suits loft-style, industrial, and modern interiors. The concealed rose design means there is no visible round backplate, creating a crisp, uninterrupted appearance on the door face.
Designed as part of the complete Manhattan hardware system, this lever handle pairs seamlessly with matching latches, hinges, and WC thumbturns to create a fully coordinated door setup.

Using Charlton Handles on Door Pairs
If fitting two pairs of handles to double doors (door pairs) where one leaf is required to remain fixed, a Taylor spindle (also known as a dummy spindle) is required.
- Allows the handle to be fixed in position
- Prevents operation of a latch on the fixed door leaf
Please ensure the correct spindle is selected when ordering for door pairs.
Important Compatibility Information
Due to the unique design of the Manhattan door range, which features narrow 80mm-wide stiles and rails, these doors must be paired with Manhattan-compatible black door hardware.
This handle has been designed to work with a 53mm latch casing to suit the Manhattan range. Using alternative or non-compatible hardware may result in poor fitment, damage to the door, or compromised functionality.
