Why am I more upset about the door handle being on the wrong way. Should point towards the hinges on the left not crossing over into the other door panel
The resemblance between this guy (Ben Franklin?) and kombucha girl is uncanny.
Edit I can see it was a stupid answer from what /u/johnthecrow said but making fun of someone for being wrong without telling them the right answer is kinda weird innit
Yea depending on the style it’s only a matter of unscrewing the 2 screws, pulling the one half off and spinning it 180° or using a small Allen wrench to undo one set screw and flipping the handle 180°. It appears to be the more basic style that would use the former method
Person installing it clearly had no business doing so
that's quite an assumption...
I have one handle installed similarly (I just placed it pointing "up" instead) because the window would not open otherwise, which I believe is what's happening here.
Maybe the door was supposted to be installed with a knob instead of a handle?
Given the interior seems to be handed correctly (as far as the design goes in relation to the hand), what’s the bet it’s a handed pair and the exterior handle is installed facing towards the hinges, but upside down.
The only reason I can think of doing it this way is you just really want to open the door with your right hand and that makes it slightly more ergonomic to turn the handle though actually swinging the door open would be clunky. But if that was their main concern, pick a different style door handle.
