Internal door knobs/handles regulations Scotland

[Hastings]

In a new build in Scotland are there regulations available to view online somewhere? I can only find reference to BS docs, and nothing on this forum.

 

I want to put traditional round knobs on traditional (new) frame and panel softwood doors to bedrooms at height of 850 where the main door rail is.

Thanks @craig but there is nothing at all I can find referring to door handles in the tech guide apart from one instance relating to fire escape doors.

 

For something that gets used more than light switches and sockets it seems odd to leave it out of the guidance.

What are you trying to find out?

 

Our last house was subject to building control inspection, internal doors had round knobs, no comment from them. This time we have lever handles, not expecting any comment on them either.

 

If there is no defined regulation, you just fill your boots and do what suits the application.
