<p num="1"><br/><br/><br/>A door handle assembly providing an entry function includes a sleeve, a <br/>spindle and a handle that fits over the sleeve. Gap and play between the <br/>handle and the sleeve is eliminated by tightening of a threaded fastener <br/>against an inner surface of the handle. A tool is selectively received through <br/>an opening in the spindle for tightening the threaded fastener. The opening in <br/>the spindle is alignable with an aperture in the handle when in an unlocked <br/>condition. The tool is then permitted to extend through the aperture and the <br/>opening in the spindle to engage the threaded fastener. A second end of the <br/>threaded fastener abuts the inner surface of the handle, securing the handle <br/>to the sleeve. Another door handle assembly according to this invention <br/>provides a privacy function and includes a threaded fastener that contacts an <br/>inner surface of a door handle assembly.<br/> |
