HANDS ON PRIVACY by raed almasri from saudi arabia
designer's own words:
the hole concept was to create a door handle which also acts as a privacy mechanism for the door thus eliminating the need for any additional parts ( locks ) and achieving a simpler more artistic look for the door set and the door it self and giving more value to the door handle.
the locking process is fairly simple all you have to do is to rotate a cylindrical shape i call the ring
which is resting on a fixed L shaped support until it overlaps the door handle it self and by that connecting the fixed support to the handle and preventing it from moving.
the material used for the set are stained gold colored finishing for the handle and the support
and engraved silver color finish for the rose and the locking cylinders.
although this is more luxurious finish normal solid colors finishing are also beautiful.
benefits:
1. simple
2. not much mechanical parts to be broken
3. you will never lose the keys
4. more compact in shape than traditional sets
5. the rings on the set can be sold in different finishes as accessories
i really hope that you will enjoy my idea and thank you all for your time and effort
best of luck to all
