Phil L is correct, but you'll have to remove the grub screw as well, to allow the thumb turn to be removed.

I'd like to remove what looks like an Arrone (it's what's stamped on it) thumb turn from the bathroom door



It looks something similar to:

I can't see how to remove it. There appears to be a tiny threaded hole on one side of the thumb turn, but I can't see how that might help, and there's nothing else that seems to suggest it might help removal. Can anyone provide any pointers to removing it?



TIA

No allen grub-screw in there?

Is there a tiny Allen screw deep inside that hole?

Phil L is correct, but you'll have to remove the grub screw as well, to allow the thumb turn to be removed.

to do that you will probably need a very small allen key.

Thanks for all the pointers: I'll give it a go.

Sorted: No grub screw, but the outer circular plate/cover came off with a twist (not threaded) and exposed screws

Thanks for the help & advice.
