How to Replace an Interior Door Handle
Hello!
Have you ever noticed the look of the lever handles at your office or home?
If they look bad or broken maybe I can help you.
Interior door hardware comes in two types: that which locks and that which doesn't.
There are two categories of door handles:
-knob handles
-Lever handles
Also there are two sub categories:
-Handles on rose
-Handles on backplate
Trick of the trade:
1-
First, remove the old door hardware.
Depending on your door hardware, youa€?ll typically find two screws on the interior side of the handle set.
Remove the screws and pull the two sides out from the latch.
Remove the latch screws and pull out the latch and also remove the strike plate on the doorjamb.
2-
You should first install the latch.
Note: The latch can be installed in either direction, make sure it is installed so that the half round part is going to hit the strike plate on the doorjamb.
The latch faceplate should fit flush with the door edge.
If the plate doesna€?t fit flush, use a chisel and hammer to enlarge the recess.
Select the appropriate faceplate, insert the latch into the existing hole, and secure it with two screws
3-
Insert the interior side of the handle set through the latch mechanism. Then install the exterior side over the top, aligning the screw holes. Secure with the two screws.
Note: Install the first screw loosely to make sure the second screw is properly aligned before tightening.
4-
Install the strike plate in the doorjamb with two screws. If you need use a chisel to enlarge the recess as necessary for a proper flush fit.
I hope this instruction was useful for you.
