Replacing A Doorknob Without Serious Injury
This may have happened to you. It is the middle of the night. You awake from your loft bed to answer the call of nature. When you get to the bathroom, the door will not open. You know that you should have fixed that doorknob, some time ago.
Maybe this happens to you. You try to lock that bedroom door. However, it seems to be broken. Perhaps it will not stay latched either. You forget about it. Later, an opening door interrupts your privacy. Perhaps procrastination was not a good idea. You can usually replace that old doorknob, without serious injury.
Your old doorknob
Take a close look at the old doorknob. What brand is it? What shape is the latch? Take off the old doorknob. What is the inside diameter of the hole? How thick is the door? Write down all of these observations. Take them with you when you shop for a new doorknob. Bring your old doorknob also. Home improvement centers are a good source of doorknobs. Do not forget hardware stores. These places usually have employees to help you.
Replacement options
When you get to the hardware store, you may have several options for new doorknob. Try to get one that is similar to your old one. This will make replacement simple. If you have the choice between cheap and expensive, get the best that you can. The reason is simple. The better units will cost more. They tend to last longer, and operate easier.
Replacement preparation
There is little preparation required. You may have to make a few modifications. This will be covered in the installation.
Tools needed
Basic tools are all that you will need. That Echo chainsaw will have to wait for another day. Hopefully you can get by with just a screwdriver. You might need a wood chisel and hammer.
Installing the new
Your new doorknob should not be much trouble to install. It should go on easily. The next part may be a little tricky. For some reason, new doorknobs may be slightly different from the old. That is why exact replacements make for simple installations. You may have to move the new strike plate up or down. This can be done with your hammer and wood chisel. You may need your drill for new pilot holes, also. Modifications may not be necessary if you use the old strike plate. Make sure it is not unsightly or damaged.
You should be finished. Drilling and chiseling may make a mess. You can use your Dyson upright vacuum cleaner to take care of that.
Conclusion
Replacing that old worn out doorknob can be a satisfying achievement. It can also restore privacy that everyone appreciates. Take your time and you should have few problems.
