Spiral springs to repair several door handles. The manufacturer will not sell them to the public "in case of injury", but you can only recently buy them from a second party.

From the first month after fitting them, the springs started to snap, but Wickes would only exchange when there were 3 sets faulty as they were sold in a multipack.

And bizarrely, they didn't want the broken handles back on the THREE occasions I exchanged packs of 3 sets.

So now I'll have 9 handle sets ready to replace the next ones that break in the future.
