Single Sided Communicating Room Lever Handle for Platform Lifts

Ensure secure and code-compliant access control with this one-sided door handle for platform lift landing doors.

Designed for use with elevator systems that feature mechanical strike or interlock locks, this one-sided lever handle allows the lift’s locking system to fully engage and disengage as intended. In standard operation, the handle remains fixed from one side to prevent unauthorized access, while a key can manually override the lock during maintenance or emergency situations. This handle is commonly found on vertical platform lifts (VPLs), especially in National Wheel-O-Vator (NWOV) units, where it serves as a modern replacement for legacy #V1097. Its sturdy construction and satin chrome finish make it ideal for high-traffic environments requiring controlled door access.
