The package the new handles are packaged with will offer two different latch plates: a rectangular one and a circular one (see the above diagram that outlines the parts of the door handle). If you have an old rectangular latch plate, replace it with a round one. This will allow the latch to be able to hook onto the strike plate and make the handle easier.

You'll require a new cylinder for your lock if you're replacing the latch and handle or your existing one is damaged.
