Door Handle Replacement

It's worth replacing door handles if you aren't happy with the way they look or if they are difficult to use. Installing the new double glazing window handle on your door is easy if you have patience.

Most modern door handles have cover plates that hide the screws for an attractive appearance. However, you'll have to attach them separately if the new handle does not already have them.

Take off the handle from the old one.

Door handles aren't just an essential for aesthetics of your home, but they're also crucial for safety as they let you lock and unlock your door. However, as time passes, your door handle may lose its grip, appear loose or start to look old and worn. This is a clear indication that it's time to replace your door handle.

One of the first indications that your door handle requires replacing window handles is if it's becoming difficult to operate. This is a problem because it means you can not lock or unlock your door which could create an security risk to you and your family.

Another reason to replace your door handle is when it's damaged or broken. A damaged or broken door handle can be very dangerous, especially when your children or elderly family members struggle to open it and end up trapped inside. It's easy to fix a damaged handle on doors.

Modern door handles are usually standard sizes and will fit any door. If you're unsure if the new door handle you're buying will work, try removing the old one and determining the holes in its housing. This will allow you to purchase the right size door handle.

The easiest way to take off your old victorian door handle handle is to remove it from the door itself. Usually, a screwdriver is used. Some door handles come with a cover plate which hides the screws used to mount them. You'll need to remove the cover plate to gain access to the screws. After removing the old handle, take note of how the spindle is attached. This will help you align the new handle.

Alternatively, you can remove the door handle by uncrewing it from the latch mechanism. This is usually done using the screwdriver, but you'll need to find the small latch, which should be just to the left of the trim piece. After taking off the latch, remove the handle and strike plate. Then, you can remove the latch from the edge of the door.

Removal of the Strike Plate

When replacing your upvc handle window, you'll want to replace the latch plate that holds the hole that the door's latch hooks into when it closes. The box that the new handles are packaged in will include two different latch plates: a rectangular one and a circular one (see the above diagram that outlines door handle parts). If you have an old rectangular latch plate, replace it with a round one. This will allow the latch to hook into the strike plate, making the handle easier.

The first step is to take off the screw that is holding the latch plate. These screws can be quite tight, and may require some force to loosen. It might be beneficial to have a second person help in this area if it is possible.

After the screws have been removed and the latch plate should pull out of the door easily. If it is stuck or doesn't move, use a small nail file to scratch around the edges of the latch plate. This may help free the plate.

Now you can move on to creating the new door strike plate for installation. Screw the latch plate into the doorjamb using the wood screws that were included with your new white window handles. Don't over tighten your screws because this could cause damage to the strike plate.

If you're unsure whether the latch plate is in the correct position Try closing and then opening the door to check whether it locks and closes correctly. If not then you'll have to adjust the strike plate either up or down, or forward or back, until the door closes and latches correctly.

If the door still moves or jiggles, then you may have to expand your latch hole on the strike plate. This is more frequent in older doors, however it can happen due to wear and tear hinge mortises that are too narrow or are not sized correctly for the latch, or because of damage or a broken strike plate. If this is the case, follow the same procedure to adjust the strike plate, using a metal file instead of the hammer and chisel.

Removing the Latch

The latch is the metal piece that is angled that is able to move between the hole in the inner edge of your door. When you turn the handle, it pushes the latch forward, allowing you to open the door. It also hooks into a hole in the frame of the door to keep your door shut. If your door is wobbling when you close it, replacing the latch could be all you need to fix the issue.

The screws that hold the door latch are hard to spot however, you can use a screwdriver to make a small hole on the trim plate and pry the latch off. After you've removed your trim plate, it should be simple to take off the latch and the remaining bolts that hold the latch and spindle in the position.

If the latch won't come out you can try using an old-fashioned paper clip or tool to release it from the handle mechanism. Insert the item in the slot for the latch that is recessed and gently twist it or jiggle until you feel that the latch and handle begin to separate. You may have to repeat this procedure several times before you can take the latch off.

You should be able to slide the new latch into its slot without issues after you've removed the old one. Use the new screws to secure the latch to the strike plate or door frame. Make sure that it is correctly positioned in the slot, aligned with the screw chambers.

Before you install the new handle, make sure to measure your current backset (the distance from the center of the big hole on the front surface of the door to the edge). Check that the latch size of the new handle matches the measurement.

You'll require a brand new lock cylinder if you're replacing the handle and latch or if your current one is damaged. If you're not changing the locks, the new latch will fit in the existing recess and work just fine with the keys you have currently. Be sure to select an entry point with rectangular cover plates that match the handles you have.

Remove the cover plate

Remove the screw holding the handle in the interior and set it aside once the cover plate has been removed. Take off the screws that hold both the outer and inner plates. You can loosen them with a Philips Screwdriver. Remove the inner plates and latch from the door. Set them aside.

Not all doors have this gap. If yours doesn't then you'll have to drill a hole into the door to install the new handle. It's the same procedure as opening a door locked, but you will need to be extra careful not to damage the frame or door.

The installation of new door knob screws is necessary after the holes have been made. Make sure to buy the same size as the old ones, to ensure that you won't have a handle that's too tight or loose.
