What is the height standard for door handles?

The standard height of the door handle is 0.8m to 1m on the door, and it is about 1.1m above the ground. Some door handles may have a higher height, such as anti-theft doors where the handle height reaches 1.13m. The best door handle height should be determined based on factors such as the user's height and door opening habits.

1.If there are children at home, it is recommended to have a door handle height of 0.8 m to 0.85 m,otherwise the child needs to step on a stool to reach the door handle when opening the door, which may lead to accidents and falls.
2. If there are no children at home, it is reasonable to set the door handle height to 1m based on the average height of adults.
3. When a person is twisting the door handle, their forearm is most comfortable when it is level.
