Weslock 600 Series Impresa Doorknob

I just replaced the original hardware with this same model number. It is a great product that was easy to install.The original gave us twenty years of great service.

We have order a few of these door knobs to go along with our kitchen remodel. Overall, I am very happy with the knobs. I feel like the color was true to the description so there were no surprises when we received them. One knob fails to lock in and we are repeatedly putting it back on. Luckily, it's a door we don't use much, so we are not overly frustrated by it. I would recommend this knob.

The quality was excellent compared to my 20-year-old builder's specials. All parts were made of a high gauge metal, no plastic. The antique metal finish was a little shiny, but was not so noticeable once installed. One out of 7 sets had the wrong finish on the strike plate and side piece, but each set had both square and round cornered versions, so I was able to substitute from another set. Installation was relatively easy and they look great!

We bought these knobs and put them throughout the entire house, we love them and have been pleased with the quality. They are a really simple design that seems timeless. I'd say they are darker than they appear in the photo, but the sales rep told me they would come that way and that over time and with use the edges will have a little bronze show through like in the photo. All in all we feel we got a good deal.

we've really liked these knobs so far. They were a great deal for the money and compared to other locks we have had I think the mechanism is a great design. Rather than have a turn button on the knob, these have a push button on the backplate that releases when you turn the knob from the inside. I like the button on the rosette too because it maintains a really simple clean look on the knob. All in all a good buy.

I ordered three of these doorknobs and the corresponding deadbolts. I do not like them at all. The locking mechanism on the inside is a push button that is located behind the knob, but it is basically the rounded head of a screw that sticks out about 3/4 inches from the back plate, and when you turn the doorknob you scrape your fingers on it. (see photo). The knob barely turns to retract the latch, and I'm afraid that I'm going to wrench the doorknob off trying to open the door. The size of the knob is also very small. My old doorknobs lasted 27 years. I'm guessing I'll be ordering replacements for these in a couple of years, as they don't seem to be very durable. Also, the keys are made of very cheap metal, and one of my deadbolts is hard to turn, so I'm sure we're going to break the key off in the lock. I reinstalled that deadbolt three times, and the only way to get it to turn easily is to not tighten the screws all the way, but then I'm afraid the deadbolt will wobble and come loose. Bottom line -- I would NOT recommend these items unless you're putting them on a cheap shed or a playhouse or something.

I purchased privacy locksets to replace passage units that are 30 years old. The originals were made in USA. The replacements were made in China. Quality is good and they swap out perfectly. The only nitpicky item of mention is that the privacy button is different. The new units have a button with rounded top; the old ones (still have a few doors with them) have a flat top. If that feature bugs you, take heed. It's impressive to find that the 600 series is still available. Good stuff! Customer service at Direct Door Hardware is outstanding. They live up to their reputation throughout the sale, and I recommend them often.
