Two things that really helped a lot. You mentioned the drill bit size and in the beginning you talked about the adjustable pin for the bottom of the handle. Thanks!
Lifesaver video! Thank you so much. My first time replacing deadbolt and handle. This helped so much. I appreciate you staying what size drill bit to use for the bottom hole. 👍
I just installed one of these. The scariest part was having to drill through the door. The curious thing is that it says you need a 3/8 (which really is 9.5 mm) or 10 mm drill bit. So I'm surprised a 5/16 (8 mm) worked. For me, the 3/8th was slightly larger than needed. That part only goes 1/2 way through the door. So I used a 1/4 inch drill bit to go through the inner side metal layer for the bolt. I was sweating it. I wish I had found your video first..you made it such a non issue. Bound to give the confidence required :)
Thanks for the kind words! Nothing is wrong with being nervous. In a lot of the videos I make, I'm nervous, mainly if I have never performed or installed the product before. Fortunately, I install plenty of door knobs and handles. I'm glad everything worked out for you!
This video was a lifesaver for me, especially since I installed in this in December in Minnesota (brrrr). I also had to drill a larger hole, so the 5/16" tip was helpful. The instructions that came with it were not helpful at all. Glad I found your video!
Locksmith here, great work, but you don't want to use a drill on those screws. They strip very easily. You might get lucky, but you also might be unlucky and have a screw that needs to actually be drilled out. A good old screwdriver with a round shank is best, round so you don't scratch the finish. Great video.
Our door did not have the indented section to fit the latch plate into, so we had to chip that out of the door before installing the handleset. Thankfully, my 13 year old son has been getting some woodworking lessons from grampa, and he had a chisel and knowhow! That plus watching your video, and, voila! I have a new, working handle! Thanks for giving me the inspiration to tackle it on my own!
@@megofiachra3247 thank you so much for the kind words your comment has motivated me to do more DIY things. If you need anymore help just drop a comment and I will try to make a video. I'm glad you made a way to update your door have a good one!
So much better looking! I ordered the Greenwich matte black entry door handleset with the Broadway (ADA) flat inside handle. I'll need to drill through the door for the bottom mount, but I know what to expect after watching your video. Thanks!
Hi I have a schlage lever knob, one question should the shaft on the outer piece wobble around, looks like two pieces that wobble is this broken or do I need a new lock set,. This door is not the main entry and really isn't used that much, I had been opening it once in a while and one day it just wouldn't open and it is not really old? Help please.
Sorry for the late reply. Mine wobbles a little bit but not a lot. But if it wobbles a lot then you may have to get a different one. Also if there's not a door that you don't use that much there are cheaper product on Amazon that will give you the same look. I hope this can help.
@@ALWAYSOCCUPIEDTV thanks I need a schlage camalot lever type it does wobble a lot since they come in a set I guess I'll have to spring for it, I thought it was me
The front door of my house has this same type of door but I always find it hard to open from outside when coming from outside but opening from inside to go out is easy,is there any easy way I can open it without having to apply too much pressure in opening?
@@ohemaaafia9875 use a screw driver to loosen the screws that hold the unit in place. I’d probably loosen all of them a very little bit at a time to see if it gets better. I had to do this on my door, too tight and it didn’t want to turn
The instructions that come with this handle suck! Thanks for the drill bit info, I didn’t have 5/16 so I was able to make a quick trip to the hardware store!
What the ever living *&^*& is Shlage thinking. HERE WE HAVE THIS GORGEOUS OLD STYLE ANTIQUE CAMELOT FINISH SO WE CAN HAVE A HALF ASS UGLY ASS WASHER ON THE INSIDE FINISH? NOTHING SCREAMS RESTRAINING ORDER OR PREVIOUS DOMESTIC ISSUES THAN A REPAIRED DOOR WITH THAT LAWNMOWER BOLT ON IT. Still great video but the company screwed you guys on the design.... grrrrrr

Thanks! . I know what you mean. I stripped plenty screws in the past.😅
awesome video, thanks so much for your detailed break-down, you are a great teacher. looking forward to your next masterpiece.
Thanks! most of my reviews I try to do a break down. I like helping people the best I can.
I got a different style of Schlage handle, and I'm completely buffaloed by doorknobs, BUT you make it look so easy, I am now going to go try...

Thanks for your efforts here. Just the info that I needed.
np more door videos coming!!! thanks for viewing!!
I’ve been looking for one like your old lock because it gives extra security. The newer locks don’t lock at the bottom which I have. Good job though..
I agree. It’s crazy how manufacturers took the lock away from the bottom. Thanks for watching!!
Thanks for the guidance! Super helpful.
NP! I'm glad the video helps!!!
does that locks from inside? Your old one had a lever on the knob.
HELLO, This product don't lock from the inside. you will have to purchase a dead bolt
@@ALWAYSOCCUPIEDTV so now you lost a lock. You got the color. Are you okay with that or do you miss the bottom lock you had before
Just heads up. Next time take the inside knob off. There should be a set screw.
Thanks!!!

you might have to spray the inside hardware with lubricant, hopefully that will help
Try loosing the screws a bit. Some locks, if too tight cause the lock to bind
@@pouncerminned863 how do I do it? I mean to loose the screws with what?
@@ohemaaafia9875 use a screw driver to loosen the screws that hold the unit in place. I’d probably loosen all of them a very little bit at a time to see if it gets better. I had to do this on my door, too tight and it didn’t want to turn
Nice vid. Appreciate mentioning the drill-bit size!
