    I have to say, you sir are one of few last mohicans left... Thinking and doing outside the box...every other videos I found were instructions on how to use the door kit. Corporations getting you to buy more for things you don't really need... But no, I have to money to buy any door kit just to make a hole in ONE door... Hats to you sir!

    Brilliant. I found some videos where they showed how to hang the door but only went as far as the hinges. Nothing on how to make the hole and put the door knob on. This perfectly explains it. You are a very patient man. Especially when you are chiselling out the plate.

  • @PhilFord51
    @PhilFord51 3 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Great video, showing all the steps. Although I think your door was wood-lined but the core was chipboard ( I may be mistaken though) judging by the drilled out material. I have fitted these into solid wood doors here in the UK by drilling three holes, one at 15mm for the knob turn bar and two 10mm for the securing screws. rather than that massive hole which may weaken an engineered door. The two 10mm holes gives some leeway for alignment.

    • @pasqualeparente9776
      @pasqualeparente9776 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      What you say is true but there are some more expensive handles with different construction that need the interior space,. These handles I am talking about a fire rated. Also some Schlage handles need the full hole.

  • @susangolden7383
    @susangolden7383 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is the first time I have to cut the holes to install a new knob assembly. My friend has an antique door, but the lock and knob are totally worn out and he doesn't have the patience, time, or money (hire a locksmith) to get it functional again. So, he asked me to just install a new knob! It was a solid wood door and though I knew the instructions were pretty explicit, I still got up at 5 am to check out u-tube! I am glad I landed on your video! The close-up shots were great and your step by step instructions were perfect. I would have had a little trickier time as my hole saw is shallow, so I think I may go to the hardware store and purchase a deeper one for this job! Aside from measuring accurately, I am a bit concerned about keeping the saw level as I cut and not cutting on an angle when I do the hole for the latch assembly (there isn't much room for error there)! I feel a lot more confident than I did when I first opened the package with the new doorknob! Thanks, so much!!!

    @gregkonar7413 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Very helpful! No comparison to the instructions in the door knob kit! One question: I have a door that is slightly less thick than the one in the video. Drilling a 1" hole for the latch assembly seems a bit dicey as I don't want to break through the side. The Kwikset latch assembly I have will fit into a 7/8" hole (I tested it). Is there any reason I shouldn't go with a 7/8" hole in this situation?

    • @diyhomeimprovement9298
      @diyhomeimprovement9298  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      great question. the short answer no, go ahead with the smaller hole. But, make sure it is large enough that it operates smoothly and the latch does not bind up. Some latch assemblies do not have a face plate "interior doors". They are are press in and they need the one inch hole. If your latch has a face plate I do not see any problem going with a smaller hole. Thanks for the great question!! Good luck!!!
