As a door manufacture our standard door handings

| However, the International Standards Organisation
(ISO) devised a method of handing which has been
adopted by the Guild of Architectural Ironmongery
(GAI). To maintain consistency amongst ironmongers
when specifying ironmongery only, Leaderflush Shapland
will follow this method which is based on the
direction of the closing door. This is either
clockwise closing, or anti-clockwise closing, as shown
in the diagram below. |

| It is sometimes necessary to describe in the
ironmongery schedule which face of the door an item of
hardware should be fitted to. This can also be done
with the ISO handing method. The opening face is
designated ‘0’ and the face which closes
into the frame is designated ‘1’, refer to
diagram below. |
