What Type of Hardware You Have So You Can Replace It
Posted by DDH Staff on 2/28/2013 to
Tips
Back when a door knob was just a door knob to me and that's as deep as it got, I never imagined how different each door knob could be. I'm not talking about the obvious design difference, of course there are many varieties there, but what about the measurements, the latches, the round or square, handleset, lever mortise, multi point, yadda yadda... And honestly you wont need to know all this stuff, unless you are trying to replace your hardware. I know that might sound super overwhelming, but don't give up yet! It's actually not all that bad. You just need to find out what type of hardware you have and then you can start crossing off most of that list.
