Review on 1 Pack Keyless Privacy Door Levers - Wave Style Handleset In Brushed Nickel Finish For Bedroom/Bathroom | Knobonly by Chris Kidd

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Decent hardware for the price

Decent hardware for the price—those who need to replace older doorknobs to freshen the home will like these. If you demand fine quality might be disappointed. The handles have some play so that they feel loose, although the mechanism does work smoothly and feels like it will hold up for years. For me, it was an upgrade to the original cheap hardware that came with the house—it’s all relative. If you’re looking for the best quality, I suggest you shop at (and support) your local hardware store.The door hardware was delivered in excellent condition with no problems. One thing was that the instructions directs you to switch the handle 180º to change from left to right or vice versa. However, the shaft on which the handle mounts is tapered, so it cannot be reversed on the same piece of hardware but must be re-mounted on the opposite handle. Otherwise, installation is simple. I mounted ten handles in about two hours. For my small pantry and linen closet, I simply removed the inside handle.

Pros
  • works good
Cons
  • The privacy lock is difficult to unlock with wet hands
