Abstract
A door handle assembly comprises a handle mount having an opening therethrough and a manually engageable handle rotatable about an axis, the axis aligned with the opening positioning structure is fixed relative to the handle mount. The positioning structure has a plurality of locking regions defined by locking surfaces, the locking regions being spaced at predefined distances from the axis. A pair of mounting studs, are adapted to extend through an associated pair of apertures in a door. The mounting studs have lock surfaces that are engageable with the spaced locking surfaces of the positioning structure to enable the elongated mounting studs to be selectively fixed relative to the positioning structure at desired predetermined distances from the axis.
