Abstract
A latch assembly includes a latch, a latch bar, an inside handle, an outside handle, and a handle shaft. The housing is coupled to a rear support bracket. A U-shaped brace is mounted to the support bracket. The inside handle is coupled to the brace for reciprocal, pivotal movement and operation of the latch assembly. The inside handle is coupled to a first link which is coupled to an offset link. The first link is mounted to the shaft of the latch assembly through a mounting barrel or fitting having a shaft hole that is configured to receive and hold the exposed end of the shaft. The movement of the handle moves the first link which pivots the second link so as to rotate the handle shaft.
