L-Handles

As a leading manufacturer of industrial access hardware, Sierra Pacific Engineering and Products (SPEP)  has an extensive inventory of latches and handles, including L-handles. L-handles, which are actually a simple form of latch, are a highly reliable and cost-effective type of access hardware. Due to their versatility, L-handles can be used for a broad range of applications. To meet the needs of our entire client base, we manufacture L-handles in a wide array of sizes, styles, materials, and finishes.

More About This Section

What Is an L-Handle Used For?

L-handles are typically used to provide access to shed doors and other kinds of enclosures. They can be installed in a variety of configurations. When a user turns an L-handle, it rotates a cam inside the mechanism, which then releases the access panel or door. 

Most L-handles require a quarter turn (90-degree rotation) to disengage the cam. However, SPEP also offers half- and full-rotation options upon request. We also provide front mount and blind mount L-handles. 


Types of L-Handles

SPEP’s selection of L-handles can be grouped into three broad categories:

  • Non-Locking: These simple L handles do not have built-in security features, nor can they accommodate a padlock

  • Padlockable: Padlockable L handles feature an external latch that will accommodate a padlock for security

  • Key-Locking: Our key-locking L handles provide an additional layer of security, allowing you to easily restrict access to a shed, container, or other enclosure

Our non-locking L-handles are our most affordable configuration. However, SPEP’s key-locking and padlockable L-handles are cost-effective options for when you want to provide extra security for your enclosure. 

L-Handle Finish Options

Choosing the appropriate finish for your L-handles is key to maximizing usability and service life. As you select your material and finish options, you should consider the environment your handles will be used in, any security concerns you might have, and the aesthetic demands of your project. 

At SPEP, we offer material and finish options to accommodate a wide array of use cases and applications. Our L-handle materials include:

  • Steel

  • Die-cast zinc

  • Stainless steel

  • Cast steel

We also offer these finish options for L-handles:

  • Chrome-plated

  • Zinc-plated

  • Powder coat (matte black)

  • Black

  • Passivated

  • Brushed

  • Electropolished

  • Hand-polished

If you need assistance choosing a material and finish combination for your intended use case, connect with the SPEP team. Our talented product specialists will provide insights into the benefits of each option and help you identify the ideal match for your project.

L-Handle Accessories

SPEP L-handle accessories include a plethora of gaskets, a variety of shaft handles, cams with and without rollers, and lock brackets. Most parts are available in steel die-cast zinc with a plated finish for superior corrosion protection.

Never fear if you do not see the exact sizing you need in our catalog, we specialize in quoting custom products and can produce parts catered to your specific design requirements at high volumes. Our production part approval process and ISO 9001 policies ensure that the parts you want are the parts you get.
