Door Knobs
Door handles add to the aesthetics of your house while making it easier for people to open and shut doors. They come in a wide variety of finishes, colors, and styles to complement your decor. If yours have started to show signs of wear or require an upgrade, you can replace them in a few simple steps.
You need to locate the spindle, or shaft through which the knob is connected to the door. Some knobs have a small opening that you can use a screwdriver for removal of the set screws that secure the handle. Some have a small slot or hole through which you can use to press the spring-activated detent pin using flathead. This pin releases the latch mechanism and allows you pull or push the knob.
After you have gained access to the shaft or spindle, remove the old door knob and replace it with the new one. Make sure to align it properly and then test to see that the latch functions correctly before tightening the new set screws.
After replacing the knob, place the rod for the latch into the hole on the door. Lock it in place using the rod system on the second knob. Make sure that the holes are lined up, then thread in the screws on the latch plate and tighten them.
Some prefer the smooth or brushed finish for their door hardware to create modern, sleek design that complements other furniture in their homes. Others prefer a more rustic look which is great for farmhouse-styled spaces. If you have someone in your family who has mobility issues, you may want to choose a lever style or rim lock, which requires less pressure to operate.
Other aspects are being taken into consideration more and more in the design of door window handles for upvc. Infection control and accessibility have been key issues when it comes to developing new designs for window handles for upvc. For instance, some handle designs can be operated by the arm of a person.
Latch
The latch that holds the door handle open will wear down over time. The replacement of the latch to accommodate a new handle can be a simple DIY job and it will make a huge change in the way your door opens and closes.
Depending on the kind of knob you are using depending on the type of handle you have, the latch may be part of the knob itself or it could be an individual piece attached to the door itself. In either situation, the same procedure for removing and installing is applicable. The process of removing the old latch of its place is quite simple particularly if your upvc door handles handle is equipped with what's known as a "magic button". Located on the side of the knob, this tiny pressure-slot is what you need to press to take the latch out of the handle and out of the latching mechanism.
If your handle isn't equipped with this magical button, the first step is to take off any cover plates that sit over the latch plate. They are typically rectangular or circular and can be removed using a screwdriver to pull them off of the handle. Some have a slot where you can place your screwdriver. Other handles just snap off.
Next, you will want to loosen the two machine screws that secure the latch and inner plate to the door handle. These are the screws that are shorter with a sharp tip - you will be required to keep them in a safe location to reuse them in later steps. After the screws have been removed, you are able to remove the latch plate and mechanism from the hole and put it aside.
Then you can begin to install the new latch. Install the latch plate into the door hole and secure it with the hardware provided. Make sure that the square pin on the inside of the latch is facing the mechanism for latching inside the handle, and that it lines up with the other screw chambers in the Mila door Handles handle. Then push the exterior latch plate onto and secure it with the screws provided.
Strike Plate
One of the most frequent reasons to replace a door handle is because it is loose or doesn't lock properly. This is usually due to misaligned parts in the latching system, such as a strike plate that is too small or has moved upwards or down on the doorjamb as time passes. This project allows you to replace your old strikeplate with a more substantial one, which can provide more security for your door and keep it closed.
To check if the problem is due to the strike plate, apply some lipstick or similar marking material to the bolt that is used to latch. Close the door and try to latch it. If the mark is located below the strike plate hole it means that the door won't latch due to the fact that the plate is too short. If the mark is higher than the strike hole on the plate, it's likely that the strike plate has been moved up or down the doorjamb.
You might be able to screw the new strikeplate into place over the one you have already installed using the screws that come with it, depending on the door you have. But, you may have to drill holes prior to drilling and then chisel some of the wood to make sure it's a good fit. If this is the case, you must be careful not to chisel too hard or you'll cause damage to the strength of your doorjamb.
You can also consider installing a new box strike plate, which gives the lock a much stronger grip on the door and requires more force to open it. It usually requires two larger screws to anchor the strike plate in the door frame. To do this, you'll have to remove the current strike plate and then drill and chisel away the wood to make room for the new one.
This hard-to find strike plate is made of solid brass and comes with a heavy-duty thickness. It's designed to be used on antique rim locks. This kit comes with wood screws and machine screws, so you can pick the right hardware to suit your needs. Just remember that the wood screws have a pointy tip, while the machine screws are more blunt.
