Does this lock work on handles that are NOT a round, wheel style? In other words, will it work on the faucets that have a bar-type handle with knobbed ends? Will it still spin as advertised?

I'm sorry I can't answer your question. I had to send the guardnlock back because it did not fit on my faucet. I have a round wheel style but it is an older style. Not much help to you.

It spins great, not sure about the bar type handle. I called the business itself with some questions before I purchased and they were incredibly helpful, give them a call.

Here is the website for SpinSecure the makers of Guard'N'Lock, http://www.spinsecure.us/guard%27n%27lock.html, see the video it discusses installing on both a round handle and T-handle bibb. Click on the button that says, "Click here for instructions."

I would say don't waste your time with this lock.. I am about to rip it off my door and put a regular handle on. It is extremely frustrating.

The Guard'n'lock replaces the existing handle on the facucet. It is essentially a replacement handle that will only turn the facet on when its key is engaged, otherwise the Guard'n'lock handle spins freely. I purchased one, but had to return it because it was not compatible with my anti freeze facucet. So before you order, check to make certain that it is compatible with your facet.

Possibly, but I would try it. Spin lock bars are so much better then these things. I was very happy to make the switch.

Should work anywhere there is a standard type bath head. Will not work on a specialty type bath head or a round faucet type.

On ours there are notches for the handles so they do not twist. The lid also only screws down far enough to 'lock' in place. The spout will then align with the handles.

I don't think it will work. It claps onto the sping side bar then goes across and tightens on the opening. Hope this helps :-)

I had a hard time with that as well. There is an answer. I believe that I found it on the instructions. I don't recall, but I think it was simply to either have the code showing when you try to close it OR the opposite, spin the code away then it will close.. Not much help, but one of these works. I had a difficult time with both of my locks . I had to throw them away because the dials would not spin. In fact, I could not get one of them off a door knob even when taking the handle off. It had to be cut off. It made me wonder if these were knock-offs or the real deal. I'd like to try a genuine Master lock from the company to see if there is the same issue, but I don't dare to waste the money or the time on one just for the test. The door closing is simple. The dials are impossible if they get stuck. Even my genius, mr. fixit brother tinkerer could not get one to spin.

We locked ours with a small padlock through the hole in the post that goes though cent of wheel. It prevents the bar from turning.

Yes, as you can see in the picture of the inside handle assembly there is a twist "lock - unlock" just aboove the actual handle - so if desired it can be left unlocked as long as you like. This is a manual unlock so it won't lock unless you twist it back manually no matter what is done from the other side as I recall.

It can be struck pretty tight but it will unscrew the usual counter-clockwise. At least once, I have taken the device off of the faucet to get a better grip. Once off the faucet, you might even use expandable groove pliers since the cartridge is going in the trash. You might try a light coating of liquid soap on the threads of the replacement cartridge.

Hi RK, I just bought and installed these and the keys worked for both the handle and the cylinder lock.

Thanks for the confidence in me to answer your question. However I'm not a professional plumber and your stem number in something that I am unfamiliar with. However, what I do know is the one important element in selecting a faucet handle is whether or not it is a 12 spline connector or a square connector. Take the existing faucet handle off and look inside to see which type of connector it is. The faucet handles that I used my handles for were the 12 spline variety. Hope that helps.

I have no idea what that means. I assume you are using a translator? Do you mean: "what bar does this work with, standard or Olympic?"If so, this Standard lock... Works with standard bars.

It depends on your mounting style. I know on the photo, people put in on the center rod, and yes, it will lock at certain angle. But I have Annex Quad Lock on my motorcycle handle bar, and mount it horizontally on the left side, and the angle can be changed. But it's solid, and small, and what make it stand out.

If the handle is too far to the lock position or up position then they will stop rotating. The other is you may have a broken spindle and that would need to be replaced.

These are not "turnable" handles. They are only for french doors that just pull open. So there is a mounting bracket that screws to the door and the crystal handle attaches to that. No turning. This same company makes other matching handles if you need some functioning door handles.. I purchased these and have "modern" doors but it wouldn't matter for these since there is no hole in the door. These will work on pull-to-open doors.
