Frequently Asked Questions

What's a door handle grip?

A rubber or foam cover that fits over your existing handle. Gives texture and grip without replacing the handle.

Do you replace the handle?

Not for this service - we add grip covers to existing handles. If you need handle replacement, that's a separate service.

Will it fit my handle?

Most lever handles work with grip covers. Round knobs may be better replaced with levers. We check and advise.

How long do grips last?

Depends on use, but typically a year or more. They're cheap to replace when worn.
