ASSA ABLOY Aperio AH100-006 H100 DDA Grip and U-Handle Kit - Satin Chrome / Black
The AH100-006 is a genuine ASSA ABLOY mechanical accessory for the Aperio H100 Wireless Handle. It combines a U-handle and a DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) grip in a single kit, providing an accessibility-focused handle solution for commercial and institutional doors controlled by the Aperio H100 system.
The kit is finished in a two-tone Satin Chrome and Black combination - the angled spigot and attachment hardware are Satin Chrome while the handle grip and lever body are Black. This product is mechanically equivalent to the AH100-106 (Satin Chrome Pearl), which is the same kit in a single Satin Chrome Pearl finish.
The DDA grip and U-handle configuration improves ease of operation for users with limited grip strength or dexterity, and supports accessible door hardware installations in environments subject to compliance with AS 1428.1. For an overview of DDA requirements for door hardware, see Chapter 09 of our Buyer's Guide.
Usually ships within 3 business days (subject to supplier availability).
The Aperio AH100-006 is a restricted product that can only be sold to accredited installers. This is a special order item and is non-returnable unless faulty. Confirm finish compatibility with your installed H100 system before ordering - the AH100-106 (Satin Chrome Pearl) is the single-finish alternative.

Frequently Asked Questions
Both are H100 DDA grip and U-handle kits. The only difference is the finish. The AH100-006 is two-tone: Black handle body and grip with a Satin Chrome spigot and attachment hardware. The AH100-106 is a single Satin Chrome Pearl finish throughout. The mechanical configuration and DDA functionality are identical between the two.
The AH100-006 provides a lever handle form factor designed to meet the ergonomic and grip requirements of AS 1428.1. Whether an installation is formally DDA-compliant depends on the full door hardware configuration, the door opening force, and the project's accessibility consultant assessment. The kit is designed to support compliance - it does not independently certify a door. For background, see Chapter 09 - DDA and the Disability Discrimination Act.
No. The AH100-006 is a handle accessory kit only. It fits to an existing Aperio H100 Wireless Handle unit. The H100 electronic handle, latch, and Aperio hub are all sold separately.
Incorrect pairing with a mismatched latch or door preparation can affect handle operation. The AH100-006 must be installed by an accredited Aperio-trained installer. Confirm the installed H100 handle configuration accepts this kit before ordering - particularly if the existing installation used the AH100-002 or AH100-005 components individually rather than the combined kit format. See Chapter 12 - common installation mistakes for handle alignment and spindle issues.
Additional Information
Finish choice - AH100-006 vs AH100-106: The AH100-006 (this product) is a two-tone kit with Black handle body and Satin Chrome spigot hardware. The AH100-106 is the same mechanical kit finished entirely in Satin Chrome Pearl. Choose based on the installed finish of the H100 handle and the surrounding door hardware.
Component relationship: The AH100-006 is mechanically equivalent to ordering AH100-002 (U-Handle / RTD Adapter Set) and AH100-005 (DDA Grip Kit) separately - but in a different finish combination. The kit format simplifies procurement and ensures the components are sourced as a matched set.
NDIS and aged care suitability: The DDA grip and U-handle configuration is commonly specified in Australian projects requiring accessible hardware under the NDIS Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) design standards and the Aged Care Quality Standards. For guidance on product selection for these applications, see our NDIS smart lock guide.
Professional installation required: Installation of this kit on an Aperio H100 system must be performed by an accredited Aperio-trained installer. This is not an end-user serviceable component.
