GU Venice handle sets with 45mm plates offer a refined blend of traditional and modern styling, featuring a gently curved lever design that complements a wide range of door aesthetics. This collection includes active, inactive, and dummy trim options in both solid brass and zinc base materials, with seven finish choices to match your existing hardware.
The Venice handle series from GU (Gretsch-Unitas) represents a versatile choice for multipoint lock doors, bridging the gap between classic elegance and contemporary design. The wide 1-3/4 inch (45mm) backplate provides substantial visual presence while ensuring compatibility across various GU multipoint lock configurations. MPLocks stocks the complete Venice 45mm lineup, including keyed active sets for both key-above and key-below cylinder positions, along with non-keyed inactive and dummy options for paired door applications. Whether you're replacing worn hardware or matching trim on a new installation, the Venice profile delivers consistent styling with proven GU engineering.
Venice 45mm handle sets are available in two base materials to suit different installation environments. Solid brass construction is recommended for coastal areas or high-humidity locations where corrosion resistance is essential. For standard residential and commercial applications in normal climates, zinc-based handles offer reliable durability at a practical price point. Both materials are available across the full range of seven finishes, allowing you to prioritize performance without sacrificing aesthetic options.
The 45mm Venice collection accommodates all common multipoint door configurations. Active keyed trim is available in key-above-lever and key-below-lever orientations to match your lock's cylinder position. Inactive and dummy trim sets are non-handed, meaning they work equally well on the left or right side and fit with either keyed orientation—simplifying ordering for double-door installations or passive sidelites where no cylinder is required.
Before ordering, confirm whether your GU multipoint lock positions the cylinder above or below the lever—this determines which active trim orientation you need. Measure your existing backplate width to verify the 45mm size is correct, as GU also offers 30mm plate versions in the Venice style. For double doors, you'll typically need one active keyed set for the primary door and either an inactive or dummy set for the secondary leaf, depending on whether that side operates or remains fixed.
