Door handle height design considerations
1. Use occasions. The height of the door handle is different depending on the use of the door handle. Generally, the door handle of the door is higher than the indoor one. The handle position in the office is 100cm, and the general household uses 80-90cm. Kindergarten is even lower. If it is a home door, the height of the door handle is about 110cm.
2. Consider height. The door handle should take into account the height of the family. If there are no children at home, there is no need to worry about it. You can use the height of the door handle that sells the door. You can also calculate the average height of the family to design, which is generally around 100cm. If there are children at home, it is best to design the height of the door handle between 80-90, which is convenient for children to use. If the door handle is too high, children will step on the stool if they can't step on it, which will pose a safety hazard. The editor reminds that if there are children at home, the height of the door should be higher, so as to avoid children opening the door themselves when adults are not paying attention.
3. Elbow height. Many people take into account very few things when fixing the doorknob and are very casual. In fact, this is not right. Doors are not tailor-made for everyone, so the height of the door handle depends on the public. To achieve the best comfort of opening and closing the door, you need to fully consider the user's elbow height.
4. Open door posture. Different people have different postures to open the door. If the forearm is considered to be the most comfortable, the forearm and wrist joints are only subjected to tension, and there is no additional force of bending and twisting. This design method is used in many high-end hotels.
