Operating handle for a folding/sliding door
This invention relates to an operating handle (20; 120; 220) for a folding/sliding door (1, 2, 3). The operating handle has a mounting part (42; 142; 242) by which it may be secured to a part of the folding/sliding door in use, and a handle part (22; 122; 222) which is mounted upon the mounting part. The handle part is movable relative to the mounting part between a storage position and an operating position. The handle part is engageable with an operating shaft (32; 132) which in use engages a locking mechanism of the folding/sliding door. The handle part has a manually-grippable part (24; 124; 224) which extends to opposed sides of the operating shaft, permitting a balanced (or substantially balanced) force to be applied to the operating shaft, thereby avoiding the requirement for a separate grab handle.
