At about 1:43 or so in the video, one can see a sort of metal ring amongst the parts you were taking out of the package. However, you never showed that part being used nor did you mention it. I had tried to install a new door lever and have not had any luck. I first tried doing it without the round ring that was also in the package I bought - and it didn't work. That's when I decided to look online to try to see how to properly install the lever - but guess I'll just try again. I had installed a new handle/lever on an exterior door a year or two ago and had no problem at all. Later: I was able to get the handle installed, without the round ring that had been included in the packaging, which I had been trying to fit in before.

Is there such a way to rotate the lock position from horizontal to vertical? I have a dead-bolt up top that locks at a vertical position and I got this Schlage that is locking at a horizontal, and I truly don't know how to fix it. I fiddled with it enough that I opened the whole thing up, and springs fell out. -- Well, this lock is going back to the MFG. Very frustrating, any help is greatly appreciated.

Appreciate your work, but the video does not deal with the 2 hardest parts (in my case); 1) getting the long screws to engage with the rotatable plate behind them and 2) getting the lock to work. On (1) unless I twist the outer plate counter-clockwise, the screws just "fall through" the holes ; so that step has to be done carefully. Then (2) I find that the key slit is not vertical and the lock won't engage, so there is some other step that needs to be in the video so that everything lines up properly. I am still fiddling with the problem and came to your (and other) videos to see if they mention these two issues. So far, no luck. (And I do appreciate the hard work to put the video together. I know you cannot anticipate every problem. I'm writing just in case you ever redo this. My guess is that I'm not the only one with these issues. And ... the instructions that come with a standard doorknob are written in the world's smallest font. So they are pretty much useless. (Frustration!)
Good morning ☕️ any update? Are you installing the same kit as shown in this video? Door knob kits are pretty standard these days however there are a few that have a few extra confusing steps. Please keep us posted.
I wish you showed how to install a knob as the first time install in a new door where the cut out in the door isn't deep enough for the latch and needs to be deepened.
Thanks for watching & sharing this. That’s odd...what kind of replacement knob did you put in? Keep us posted on your project. Us fellow DIY’ers need to stick together! Enjoy your day. 😎👍🔧🔩
@@DIYwithMichaelBorders The problem was the bolt itself. It has a slide inside it that had moved. I had to stick an awl inside the side of the bolt to move and reset that slide. That step opened up two holes for the screws to go through. If you redo this video, I suggest you show this possibility and its solution.
Thanks for watching & welcome to the DIY Raptor Club. That is an insert that goes inside door & houses the spring loaded latch. Hope you enjoyed the video. 😎👍🔧🔩

Why did you not separate the two plates and not add the drive-in collar?
Good morning, we are drinking our morning coffee answering any and all questions for the DIY community.
That will be personal preference, we find it best for our mission to do it as shown here. 😎👍
@@DIYwithMichaelBorders But it was in the instructions

Thanks for the reply, you can also choose to keep original trim plate installed.
@@DIYwithMichaelBorders See, that's the things, instructions never say customer has a choice. That's why I went to TH-cam. Thanks

I watched to see how you got those long screws, by the knob, in and how you screwed them in! 😅

4:22 How in the bloody hell are you supposed to screw in and tighten the two screws, when a Phillips head screwdriver won't work at an angle?!?!?!?
I got one kinda in and the other only about half way. it's stripped now
@@Aspiring-Hobo
Thanks for watching, any update? These little mechanisms can be tricky at times.
@@DIYwithMichaelBorders I only managed to get one tight, the other is cross threaded and only in about half way, It will work till I can get something else. It's not loose. Not sure how or if I can get it out to replace, trying not to think about it now
@@Aspiring-Hobo
Thanks for the follow up, happens to the best of us… Ask me how I know.
😁👍
But why does it not have a key or keyhole? It would be easier

Thanks for sharing your comment. Great question & it’s all about design & appealability. It’s the style of the knob. 😀
We really enjoy making these helpful videos for our fellow DIY’ers. Many more helpful videos to come! 😀

I did get it done. It was pretty straightforward. I was just concerned about having to switch the length of it. But it was fine at the factory setting. Once I looked at it, it was pretty self explanatory. Thanks.

AWESOME! Thank you for taking the time out of your day to share this follow up.
Great to hear the factory setting worked. 😎👍
Every instruction on door knobs/locks are crazy not understandable
Thanks for watching & they can definitely be a bit non user friendly. Let us know if you have any questions.

All this extra bullshit you say just show us how to put the lock on
Thank you
