Turning into Mr. Fix It : Installing a door knob properly

admin — Mon, 23 Aug 2010 02:15:36 +0000

Installing a door knob can be a one-man job if you have the mechanical skills to do it. But for most of us who are mechanically challenged but want to cut on the labor cost of changing or installing a door knob in our kitchen or bedroom then this is a two-man job.

Having the right equipment such as a drill (on which you can change the bit for the right hole sizes), a one inch chisel, machine screws, at least one large nail (this would be used for marking and making impressions), a hammer and a hole saw and paddle bit would be needed to make sure things come out without a hitch.

The level of difficulty of installing a door knob would also depend on the kind of knob that you are using.

Mark the place where you want the door knob to go. Make sure that you mark the place where you will put the latch as well.
Using the nail and the hammer mark were the hole for the latch will go. Then drill a hole 2 and a 1/2 deep with a properly sized paddle bit.
Mark the place where you need the knob hole to go. Use the hole saw to drill the hole all the way through the other side. If it doesn’t go through, use the nail to push through and mark there the knob should go.
Mark around where the latch needs to go. Use the one-inch chisel to deepen that area and screw the latch in place.
Slide the two parts of the door knob so that the mechanical screws are aligned. Make sure that the center where the locking mechanism is aligned otherwise it wouldn’t come together and would not work. Secure the knob with screws.
The striker plate can be put in place by following the instructions on how to put the latch in. Just make sure that the hole is only deep enough to keep the latch in place. Secure the striker plate by means of screws.
Hinge the door and try out if you did a good job.

For entrances, it is best to opt with the Schlage door knob that has an added feature of keypad lock that would secure your home with a code as well as a key. This combination will ensure that your privacy is intact and your valuables in place.

Complementing this with keyed cylinders in your bedrooms and knobs, that allow you to twist open and go freely to a room, the style need not clash.
