	Inside(room or house)


	Inside


		Left Hand Door

	Outside(room or house)


	Right Hand Door

		Outside


	►Simply stand outside the room or house facing the door.


	(It does not matter if the door swings in or out.)


	►If the hinges are on the right, it is a Right-Hand door lever.


	►If the hinges are on the left, it is a Left-Hand door lever.


	Handlesets: Even though the lever is on the inside of the house, you still stand outside of the house to determine proper handing.
