- Trimline Hatches: Slim-profile sizes 30, 40, 50, 60, and 70 for modern, low-drag designs.
- Rolltop Hatches: Sizes 30 to 70, offering smooth rolling action with enhanced security.

Simple DIY Installation in Minutes
Swapping handles requires basic tools: a screwdriver, marine grease, and perhaps a trim tool for stubborn covers. Here's a quick guide:
- Release tension on the hatch stay and prop it open securely.
- Remove old handles by unscrewing the base and gently prying off assemblies—watch for compressed O-rings.
- Clean mounting surfaces and apply fresh grease to new O-rings for a drip-proof seal.
- Align LH/RH handles correctly (locks face inward), secure with screws, and test operation.
- Lubricate moving parts lightly with silicone-based marine lube for longevity.
Pro tip: In saltwater environments, rinse handles annually and inspect seals to prevent corrosion creep.
Why Choose Lewmar Large Handles? Long-Term Value
Beyond basic replacement, these handles shine in real-world boating. The oversized design reduces hand strain during frequent use, while the integrated locks deter casual tampering at marinas. UV-stabilized grey polymer resists fading, complementing most gelcoat decks without clashing.
Maintenance is minimal: Wipe down after exposure to salt spray, and they'll outlast cheaper alternatives by years. Pair with Lewmar hatch seals for a like-new waterproof barrier.
