- If you are worried about drilling into your front door to install a door handle pull, I hope to calm your nerves a bit by showing you how easy it is. In this video I show how to install a front or rear entry door pull handle. This one is a Kwikset but they are all very similar.

How did you know? Who told you that I have a doorknob that has been sitting in the box for 6 months or more because I am afraid to install it? Who told you? Just kidding. Not about the doorknob I have had for over 6 months though. Now, I am going to Home Depot to purchase a new drill bit. Must be sharp. Thank you doesn't seem enough for the confidence you just gave me to do mine. Thanks for sharing. Happy New Year!!! 🍾🥂🎉🎊
Lay off the drugs 😂
This is the best, very detailed video. i was nervous about installing new handle until i found this video. the part where using a smaller 5/16 drill bit was a life saver. my instructions called for a 3/8 which would have been way to big. the part about the masking tape to center was genius, i followed your video step by step and my handle came out perfect and level. thank you for being so detailed and step by step instructions !! it gave me confidence to do this task !
Great job; and great instructions. I agree with 1styoudummy's comment about drilling through the door from one side in order to ensure the opposing holes line up. Coming across your video is timely. I am replacing a basement door with a double patio door. I am installing a decorative door handle on the door. My first time installing one.
God bless you my friend. This video helps a lot.
Great to hear!
Thank you for this easy to understand and follow video. I'm installing this door handle tomorrow. I feel confident I can do it.
Well, that was very close. Here I was thinking you would let us go into 2022, without another video. Thank goodness that wasn't the case. Keep 'em coming, looking forward to more in 2022!
Excellent step by step instructions. Thank you!
We need a video of everything you've done so far/totourial of your home. I would like to evaluate how much you've increased the value.
You’re as ocd as me, it was so refreshing to see tips from someone who over thinks things just like me lol
Your a god for making this video lol. Thank you so much
Thanks bro appreciate you
thanks for this! I have the same exact door frame too!
Thank you!🙏🏽 ❤
Totally needed this one! TY 🤙🏾🤗
Happy to hear that! Thanks for watching as always!!
Well done 👍
When I replaced the handles on my door this year I really wanted one like that. But I was afraid I'd make a mess of it. You give me the confidence to do things myself. Thanks for taking the fear out of DIY. Happy New Year to you and your family!
Question 🙋♂️ what the purpose of these door handles with no lock ? I know deadbolts are the main but wouldn’t hurt to have just a bit more security?
Where do you insert the key?
It's my birthday today I'm 11 and have a happy new year
Happy Birthday! And a very happy new year to you!
Awesome
Hope it helps if you ever need it! Thanks for watching!!
Hi Mr. I will appreciated if provide me with model number of the door handle pull you are installing. I need to fix mine or to buy it exacly the same so I do not need to make holes or cut for a different model. I just need to replace the indorr handle the one you that give you the option to put it in one way or in the other way up . the little allen screww is broken and i cant take it out. My is exactly the same like the want you have . thank you
👍👍
Boom!💥 Nicely done man.👍🏻😎
😁 Thanks, Paul! You da man! 👍
Very clear instructions. You should get paid to make videos assembling things all around the house! Thanks man!
Thanks! I was scared to drill into my front door but this video gave me the confidence to give it a shot. My new door handle looks great!👍
thank you so much. I just installed my front door lock watch your video I saved 250.00 dollars. god bless you.
First step would to be 1) Remove the door, quickly followed by 2) Sand and repaint.
I am so grateful you did this video door demonstrating this handle installation. I wondered how to install it on a metal door. THANK YOU!
Doesnt the bevel need to go on the inside? Its so easy to pop a lock open by pushing on the bevel
First time home owner. This is exactly what i needed to get started. Thanks!
Congrats on the house!
@@tdg911 Thanks for your kindness 😀🌹
@@Prash5 most welcome.
I know your super excited buying your first house. Congratulations!!🎉❤
Great video! I NEVER would have been able - never would have had the confidence to do my install without it! Thank you bro! Halfway through the video, I just started taping and drilling! LOL!!
Great video! I’m a musician, which as is often the case, means I’m the least handy person around. I ordered the exact door handle from your link and installed it myself. I even drilled a hole. Woot, woot! Thank you so much!
You come the closest I've found to solving my problem - but not quite solved! At minute 12:39-12:52 you describe installation of the "decorative button on the bottom - put it so the notch goes toward the bottom so if you ever have to take the the knob off." On my door, the bottom bolt is loose. Turning the button has no effect, so I want to remove the decorative button and re-screw the bolt. BUT... there is no notch in the decorative button. I can't figure out how to get the button off, or otherwise find a way to tighten the bottom bolt. Any ideas how to fix this out there?
I have a similar set but I can’t for my life drill that bottom hole. Using a new cobalt bit but it just won’t go. I’m using a no-name drill that someone gave me as a gift. Is it possible it’s the drill?
Great video. It really helped with my first time installing a handle like this. 👍🏽
Do you have to screw in the bottom of the handle? It’s screwed in at the top so it should still be secure without drilling the bottom yeah?
Appreciate this video … you were right, I was worried about installing new door handle with the hole thing at bottom!
Another great video! Just did this a month ago to my front door with a Shlage door handle pull. Had to drill a hole in a metal door like this one. Turned out good, but this video would've made it a lot less stressful. Happy New Year Fixer!
Thanks. You made it a lot easier. I was scared to change my door. Thanks Again!!!!
Kwikset needs to sponsor you! This week installing a pull handle (informative as always!) and 3 weeks ago the powerbolt lock. Another great video!
On the handle, can you lock it from the inside?
Thanks, man. My set arrives Thursday.
Happy New Year. Another nice clear video. Thanks!
As usual, a very good video. Happy New Year to you and your family.
This was helpful AF. Thanks dude.
When I bought my home, I wanted to change the door handle. It was my first DIY project on my new home and helped me get tools. The old door handle had already drilled hole for the bottom so very easy to change out with the new one. Also, I’m surprised the bottom peg is adjustable on that Kwikset 🤯 That’s cool!
Happy New Year! 🏝🤙
I am putting one on today and this was a tremendous help. I was in the same predicament with the requirement to drill a hole in the door.
Hope the video helps!
Thanks for this. I've been wanting to install one of this since I got my smart deadbolt and now I see that it's not as complicated as I thought. Well done!
I just moved into a new home and wanted to replace my knob with a nice pull. This was very helpful if for no other reason than to prove my logic was sound. I used a level on the outer lines of the hole, and found the center point of the knob hole and then used the level to find the place for the lower hole. For whatever reason, Schlage does not have a template, they have measurements but that only worked if the original knob was installed with those measurements, which in my case they were not...
HUGE THANK YOU!!!
Nice job.
This video really helped. Now I feel a little bit more confident installing tomorrow
Awesome to hear! Good luck! Hope the video helps.
Great instructions!!! I just hope I can do it as easily as you do. Wish me luck this my first stab at it.....
You made that look so easy. I’ve been wanting to trade out the gold hardware to the doors inside my house with that same style and color, but haven’t because I would need to change out or spray paint the hinges, and there’s no way around it.
Man this really helped me out. I'll be taking on this project over the weekend
Thanks for making this video. I have a Kwikset to install but the bottom screw is NOT adjustable. So, I want to make sure that I really get the new hole in the right place.
Wouldn’t it be easier to fold that paper along the dotted line, instead of guessing that it’s straight and on the corner? Maybe it’s just my OCD. 🤷♀️
Strange handle and lock what I'm used to anyways.. Little tip when using cordless drill, screwing it not the hole way and tightening it with regular screw driver so that you don't over tightening and f**k up the screw hole. cool 😎 gg
Thanks for the great video! Can you please let me know where you picked up the latch spacer plate?
Thanks for posting. I see you use Ryobi alot. Do you have a video about your chosen tools or tool set reviews?
Great content! Look forward to watching every video!
Video idea: how to add a light with not attic access. First floor room with no central light. Have this issue in my house right now. If you want to come to Ohio I'll let you film here!
the itnerior door handle is the wrong one. its supposed to look like hair blowing in the wind. but other than that, i like these instructional videos for what many consider "easy" projects cause i was once new to fixing things and videos like these would have helped me tremendously. you are a saint. love your stuff. looking forward to the future
thank you for this video. you made my task of replacing the door handle much easier ❤
Happy New Year! Thanks for the info, I was always confused about how door handles work. Once it's explained it feels much less intimidating.
Thanks for this video. It helped me a lot when installing my handle. Especially for the tips on drilling through my door.
Good job
Well done sir, thank you. I feel more confident doing the job myself
I replaced it bc it wouldn’t retract and the new one does the same. Would you know why. Thank you for your help.
Hey! Make sure you didn’t overtighten the bolts. Try and back off the top ones a bit and see if that helps.
It worked. Can’t thank you enough
@@johnkoutrakos1591 that is great to hear! Happy to help!
Appreciate the video! My install was on a wood door but the instructions worked great.
Thx
I was not looking forward to drilling a hole in my door. Now ,after seeing your video, I can`t wait!
Great instructions, I just i talled mine and it works great! Thank you so much! 💓
The two door handles depend on the door being right or left-handed 🤓
thank you so very much that was amazing way to show how to do it
Thank you I learned something 👍👍👍
Thank you for making your videos so helpful
Can you drill that bottom hole in all door types ?
Thank you very much, very helpful
Can you use the template on both sides to match the holes?
I need 1 of those for my back door thank you so much for sharing your video with us 👍
Thank you so much for sharing tips. Very helpful video to DIYers. Happy New Year to you and your family!!!
Thank you. Happy to help. Same to you and yours!
Single mom here! I can’t believe I did this all by myself! I feel like a million bucks and a lot less alone. Thank you!!!!!!!!
Awesome! Happy to help!
Just what I was looking for. Thanks!
Thanks so much for sharing this!!!
Now I may just get 1 lol
Thanks for the video!
love the look of the lock set. i see plenty of those handles and they are always crooked! nicely done!
Great video! Thank you!
Happy new year Mr fixer
Happy New Year, Shannon!
Excellent tutorial; thanks!
Excellent directions
Awesome. Thanks.
Fixer, where did you get the paper template used to ensure exact alignment with the door and pull handle?
my locks came with that paper template with the instructions
Great video. I had my doubts about installing one of these myself, but your video was a life saver. Thanks!
Glad it could help! 😃
This is the same door as the previous video where you showed how to program a keypad lock.. but that video is older and this handle is installed aready
Yes good eye! I edited them a bit out of sequence. Just worked out that way. Thanks for watching!!
You saved our lives 😂❤
Sooo helpful! Thank you!!
Very good.
Thanks
Great video, thanks
Why didn't you use longer screws on the sticker plate? Just curious.
Hey, Tom! I just used the ones that came with the door. The longer screws are really important to add to the deadbolt plate as that is the locking part of this handle/deadbolt combo. Thanks for watching!
That sounds great.
