Abstract
The present invention provides door handle bases for use in mounting door handles to doors. The door handle base has a base plate having a door handle side and an opposite door side, and a pair of tabs attached to the base plate. The pair of tabs are spaced apart from each other and each tab defines a fastener hole through the tab. A boss protrudes from each tab away from the door side of the base plate and contacts the door when the door handle is mounted to the door by the door handle base. The tabs are removably attached to the base plate by a frangible connection and are useable with multiple door handles and doors.
