Start by opening the door. On the thinner side of the door, you will notice a hole covered by a cap. Proceed to remove that cap. Doing so will reveal a screw inside the hole that you need to unscrew.

Use a Torx screwdriver to remove the screw. Once the screw is removed, you can take out the door lock.

To remove the rest of the handle, simply slide the handle to the right and then pull it out of its housing. Once this step is complete, you will have successfully removed the handle from your Ford Focus.
