Active Handle Set – 72mm PZ (72PZTSS)

This is a special-size active handle set for multipoint locks with a 72mm handle-to-cylinder spacing (PZ). This size is not common, so please measure your existing hardware carefully before ordering.

The 72mm PZ measurement falls between 13/16 and 7/8 of an inch and is taken from the center of the lever to the center of the thumb turn or keyway. Handle-to-cylinder measurements vary between manufacturers and door styles, so accurate measurement is essential to a proper fit.

The set includes a spindle, mounting screws, and two spring cassettes for smooth lever return. The plate is made from aluminum and is offered in standard White and Silver finishes, with Black, Brass, and Chrome available as special order colors.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does PZ mean on a handle set?

PZ is the distance from the center of the handle (lever) to the center of the cylinder keyway or thumb turn. On this handle set, the PZ is 72mm.

How do I measure my PZ correctly?

Measure from the center of the lever spindle to the center of the thumb turn or keyway. Common sizes include 68mm, 70mm, 72mm, 85mm, and 92mm - so measure precisely to avoid ordering the wrong size.

What thread size do the screws use?

The handle set uses M5 threads. A 10-32 screw is slightly too small and is not a proper substitute.
