  • Abstract:
  • Doors are the most essential hardware used by human beings daily. Doors are used for sense of security to ourselves. To operate the door we need door handle and it’s the most important part in door. Door handles are used for opening and closing of a door with minimum effort. The handle is manufactured by die casting process. The die casting is a metal casting process that is characterized by forcing molten metal under high pressure into a mold cavity. The mold cavity is created using two hardened tool steel dies which have been machined into shape and work similarly to an injection mold during the process. Most die castings are made from non-ferrous metals, specifically zinc, copper, aluminum, magnesium, lead, powder, and tin-based alloys. Depending on the type of metal being cast, a hot- or cold-chamber machine is used. During the use of round shaped aluminum door handles it is observed that when opening the door whole load is concentrated on two screws which results in tearing the area where handle is fastened, it is also observed that once the fastened tear. It can’t be repaired and looks odd. I have redesigned the handle maintaining its aesthetic appearance and design to overcome the said identified problem.
