How to Replace Door Handles

Door handles are an essential part of the decor of your home. A new handle will elevate your home's decor and bring your decor up-to-date.

As time passes, your knobs on your doors may begin to feel stiff or even break. These are indications that it's time to change them. This guide will help you select the right replacement door handle for your home.

The handles on your doors will enhance the look of your home and allow you to open and close them. They come in a variety of colors, finishes, and styles to match your decor. If yours is beginning to appear worn or you just want to upgrade, replacing them is relatively easy and can be accomplished in a couple of steps.

The first thing you need to find is the spindle or shaft through the knob's attachment to the door. Some knobs have a tiny hole that you can insert a narrow screwdriver into to release the set screws holding the knob in place. Some have a small slot or hole that you can press an activated detent pin that is spring-activated using flathead. The pin opens the latch mechanism and allows you pull or push the knob.

Once you have the spindle or shaft, in your hand take the knob off and replace it. Be sure to align it properly and then check to ensure that the latch is working properly before tightening your new set screws.

Once you've replaced the knob, put the rod for latching over the door's hole and then lock it using the rod mechanism on the second knob. Make sure the holes are aligned and then thread in the screws for the latch plate and tighten them.

Some homeowners opt for a smooth or brushed metal finish for the door hardware to give their home a sleek and contemporary appearance. This can be matched with the furniture they have. Others prefer a more rustic design that is a good match for spaces that are reminiscent of farmhouse. If you have family members who have mobility issues, you may want to consider choosing the rim lock or lever style door knob that require less pressure to operate.

While aesthetics are traditionally the most important factor in door handle design, other aspects are becoming more important too. Infection control and accessibility are two major issues that have led to the creation of new designs for handle handles, such as ones that can be operated using the forearms of a person.

Latch

The latch that keeps your door handle open can wear out from the wear and tear of use. It is simple to replace the latch on your door handle. This will make an enormous difference in the way it opens and closes.

Depending on what kind of handle you choose the latch may be a separate component or a part of the knob. In either situation, the same procedure to remove and install will be used. It's simple to remove the old latch, especially when you have an entry handle that has a "magic" button. This little pressure-slot, located on the side knob, is what you will need to press in order to pop the latch out of the handle.

If your handle doesn't have this button the first step is to remove any cover plates that are positioned over the latch plate. These are usually rectangular or circular and can be removed with the help of a screwdriver. Some have a slot where you can put your screwdriver, whereas others simply snap off.
