Godrej NEH 18 240mm Door Handle: Ultimate Security
Product Overview
Upgrade your home or office entrance with the Godrej NEH 18 240 mm Door Handle Set 2C, a premium stainless steel solution designed for main doors. This 240mm lever handle set combines long, ergonomic handles with a robust mortise lock and high-security keys on both sides, perfect for Indian homes facing daily wear from humidity, dust, and frequent use.

Key Features
Sturdy 240mm Satin Steel Handles
These extended 240mm lever handles provide a firm grip, ideal for contractors installing on heavy main doors in apartments or bungalows. The satin steel finish resists fingerprints, scratches, and corrosion from India's coastal or monsoon climates, ensuring a sleek look that lasts years.
Both-Sides Key Access (2C Mechanism)
Unlike basic knobs, this set offers keys on both interior and exterior sides, solving the problem of family members locked out during emergencies. The 5-pin brass tumbler cylinder with 3 keys provides pick-resistant security, crucial for urban homes prone to break-ins.
Dual Locking: Latch + 20mm Deadbolt
Experience seamless operation with a 10mm latchbolt for daily entry and a heavy-duty 20mm deadbolt (10mm + 10mm) for nighttime locking. Reversible design fits left or right-handed doors, making it versatile for Indian renovations where door swings vary.
Complete Kit for Easy Installation
Includes handles, mortise lock body, brass cylinder, 3 keys, screws, and strike plate—everything needed for a professional fit. Weighing 1.5kg, it's built tough for wooden doors in homes, offices, or commercial spaces.
Benefits for Indian Buyers
Indian contractors and DIY enthusiasts struggle with flimsy imported handles that rust quickly or jam in humid conditions. The Godrej NEH 18 240 mm Door Handle Set 2C eliminates these issues with corrosion-free stainless steel and brass components, maintaining smooth action even after 10,000+ cycles. Homeowners in Mumbai apartments or Delhi bungalows gain peace of mind from its double-locking system, reducing forced entry risks by up to 70% compared to single-latch doors.
For families, the long handles ease use for elderly members or kids, preventing strains from short grips. DIY pros appreciate the universal backset, avoiding custom drilling. Offices benefit from its professional satin finish that complements modern interiors without fading under AC drips or pollution.
Real-World Use Cases
- Main Entrance Doors: Perfect for 35-40mm thick wooden front doors in row houses, providing deadbolt security against burglars while allowing quick latch access for deliveries.
- Interior Room Doors: Contractors retrofitting apartments use it for bedrooms or study rooms, where both-side keys prevent accidental lockouts during cleaning.
- Commercial Spaces: Offices and small shops in tier-2 cities install these for employee access control, with the reversible latch suiting inward-outward swings.
- Renovation Projects: DIYers upgrading old homes replace rusty handles effortlessly, as the kit fits standard Indian door prep.
How It Solves Common Door Problems
Sticky locks from dust? The precision-engineered mortise mechanism self-aligns. Weak grips on heavy doors? 240mm levers distribute force evenly. Key duplication worries? Brass cylinder resists wear for reliable copies. In India's variable weather, this set outperforms powder-coated alternatives that chip or seize.
Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Godrej Handle
Assess Your Door Specs
Measure thickness (28-40mm ideal) and backset (50mm standard). For main doors over 40mm thick, confirm compatibility or add spacers.
Compare Handle Lengths
Opt for 240mm like the Godrej range for better leverage on tall doors; shorter 200mm suits bedrooms.
Security Level Check
Choose 2C (both sides keys) for high-traffic entries. Pair with Godrej's Godrej safes for full home protection.
Installation Tips for Contractors and DIY
- Mark door edge for 50mm backset using the template.
- Drill latch pocket (64mm hole saw) and bore edge hole precisely.
- Mount lock body, insert cylinder, attach handles with screws.
- Test deadbolt throw—should extend 20mm fully.
- Apply silicone lubricant yearly for smooth operation.
