Door handle or doorknob?
Door handles are pretty important - without them doors would be walls and we couldn't move from room to room!
But when pressed to choose - would you go for a door handle or a doorknob?

7 years agoI think door knobs are great for doors to wardrobes, that can be operated without twisting them. A handle is much easier to operate if there is hardware in the door!

white door - silver or gilden doorknobs??
Comments (4)I have brass ones on period doors. They look absolutely fine, gold and white is a classic combo, but I will at some point be changing them to silver...See MoreInterior doors - change door handles and strip varnish
Comments (8)Hello Jennifer, Sounds like a lovely idea! For wood stain, it may be that you can just sand the doors to remove the stain. If it was painted I would have suggested a heat gun, scraper tool and sanding or Nitromors scraper tool and then wire wool, water and sanding.... Hopefully the wood stain might be a lot easier to manage! Especially if you have animals or nippers around... For the locks... It could be straightforward If you can align the rim lock and door jam so it's in line with the holes in the door.. I'm no chippy here! So maybe you might want to hire one to do it for you, it's a small job really but one you want done right.. I have a collection of old doors someone didn't want with loads of holes all over the place from previous owners....(I made them into a screen).. but I could see all the botch jobs that had taken place over many years...... : )) The box lock as they are known is a surface mount whereas other styles aren't so you may have to do a bit of filling depending on what is already in situ.. There are lots of helpful tutorials on youtube one here you might want to have a look at too..So a few ideas.. : )) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlCnfI64zgs...See MoreFront door handle
Comments (6)I just checked the site we got our doors from and they'll do you an ultion lock with that kind of door - we've got that type and you can leave it locked or unlocked. Unless I've missed an option on their door designer, you'd have to contact them to get the handle where you want it as it's weirdly low on the quick play I did here: https://www.modernupvcwindows.co.uk/solid-door-designer.php?t=53-0-0&w=900&h=2080&h0=900&v0=2080&x=7000100051000231&p0=00T1...See MoreAny solutions for adapting pvc doors with lift up lock handle for an o
Comments (9)How about contacting a locksmith or window/door repair company for advice. Where are you based? I use a local company called Lock & Glaze for all my repairs. They are based in Herts....See Moretemple274

7 years agoI bought the most gorgeous coloured glass door knobs for the upstairs doors in our house - I decided every door could have a different colour, but sadly, when we put them on they were so large they got caught on the door jambs and we couldn't close the doors! So, we now have very nice, but not as quirky, pewter door handles and they're disappointingly
