Video: How to Replace Interior Doorknobs

EL CERRITO — Sarah Rutan: If you have an old or malfunctioning set of doorknobs in your home, you’ll be glad to know you can easily replace them yourself. Today we’re in El Cerrito with Diamond Certified Expert Contributor Gifford Teeple of A Reliable Handyman to learn how.

Diamond Certified Expert Contributor, Gifford Teeple: Here’s a tip if you have a doorknob that’s not working properly. It’s easy to take the doorknob off usually. Just there’s a couple of screws on the back, on the inside side of the door, that you can unscrew. And then take the front part and the back part off of the doorknob, and then you can take it to a hardware store or Home Depot and have them match it.

Not all doorknobs are alike. Some have a plate that’s hiding the screws, but in general it’s a good thing to try yourself first to just take the screws off, and then pull both parts apart, and then take it to get it matched.
