Levers, Knobs & Handles

Levers are simple machines consisting of a rigid bar that pivots about a fulcrum; used to transmit and enhance power or motion.

Knobs are projecting components that are attached to a latch, handle or linkage which helps facilitate the operation of the hardware.

Handles are a part of, or attachment to, an object that can be moved or used by hand. The design of each type of handle can involve substantial ergonomic issues.
