ABSTRACT:
Apparatus and method for providing a door handle adapted to receive interchangeable display inserts. The door handle includes a handle body adapted to be coupled to a door of an enclosure. A receiving space is provided within the handle body for exchangeably receiving a display insert. A releasable closure mechanism is associated with the receiving space and adapted to be configured between an open configuration in which display inserts may be inserted and removed from the receiving space and a closed configuration in which a display insert is secured within the receiving space. The display insert has at least two substantially planar members that are associated together to fill the receiving space so that they are held substantially stationary when installed therein. A protective front facing planar member is located at a front face of the door handle and a graphic display containing intermediate planar member is positioned behind the protective front facing planar member. The intermediate planar member oriented so that a graphic display of the intermediate planar member is visible through the protective front facing planar member by a person upon approach to the door handle.
