A door handle attachment fixture for pivotally attaching a door handle to an existing escutcheon, comprising a door handle with protruding hub for insertion through an escutcheon, a wear washer, a spindle nut, a spindle nut retainer, and a shaft retainer. The hub is externally threaded for engagement with the internal threads of the spindle nut, and has a central, longitudinal hole and axial slots. The axial slots engage with locking tabs of the spindle nut retainer. The wear washer is inserted over the hub between the inside surface of the escutcheon and the spindle nut. The spindle nut is adjusted on the hub until the proper fit and feel is achieved. Once adjusted, the spindle nut retainer is placed over the spindle nut to lock it in position, and a shaft retainer is placed over the spindle nut retainer to secure it. The spindle nut provides more contact surface area with the underlying wear washer, and this reduces cyclic wear and increases product life and reliability. Further, the door handle attachment fixture provides a lower profile plus a much stronger attachment that increases product security.
