The best lever handles in the business are Falcon, most others
develop a droop. LSDA is probably from IDN Acme. Lumber yard
stuff is OK, but there is sure better stuff out there. If you
have many commercial clients you will need to develop a source for
panic hardware (I prefer VonDuprin and Monarch), LCN closers, etc.
