Good Replacement Handle

The build quality of this product is excellent. It uses metal components where necessary and is easy to install. The only thing that needed adjusting was the metal rod that goes into the knob. My door was a little thinner than planned but a quick cut corrected that and it works great on my screen door For the price it couldn't be better.

Pros
  • Mounting Hole Spacing 1-3/4"
Cons
  • Repair

No, just no. - Hardware

I ordered this handle because I had the same handle on my door that hasn't worked properly since we bought our house. I installed a new one and it didn't get any better. I've tried multiple adjustments multiple times. Should know better than to buy something cheap like that. When you press the button, it stays at "Open" - same thing the other one did. Strongly disappointed.

Pros
  • Fits 1" to 1-1/4" thick doors
Cons
  • Minor issues

Retaining Hardware

Needed to replace a broken latch on my front door. It felt pretty darn close to the OEM stuff I already had on my front door and same quality.The replacement was fairly painless and has worked great for the past few months.I understand these aren't very expensive parts but this project really went as smoothly as it should have.I count on this product my honesty I don't think I received a discount, I paid full price for the item.

Pros
  • For ¾-1¼" thick wood or metal swing doors
Cons
  • Clarity

Decent replacement handle, requires longer screws to install

Decent replacement handle but ran into an issue where the screws provided were not long enough to slam all the way through my storm door I ended up having to run to the store to fix it and although the screws are less than $2 it was a pain for me to deduct a star.Also the internal spring seems cheap and flimsy but it works for now , so we'll see how long it lasts.

Pros
  • Installs in three 1/4" holes
Cons
  • Not sure

Bought as a gift did not have time to fit

So I bought this as a gift for my father as his previous doorknob broke and he was using other means to save his door. He supplied it home and he proceeded with the installation.He mentioned that he had problems with the part that goes through the door and connects to the inside and outside handles.It kept falling and getting stuck when trying it from the outside pressed the button.I'll be honest and give this review 4 stars because they finally made it better but not perfect.He's not always…

Pros
  • Fixing hole spacing 1¾"
Cons
  • So far so good

Not bad but the lock slips

This latch with knob was very easy and quick to install, no problems. It is well built and looks beautiful, matching our previous one almost perfectly. Unfortunately, the locking mechanism is difficult to use and hard to push into the locked position. Loosening the top screw helped, apparently it was too tight and the thumb lever was crushed. But it still doesn't work that well, it still slips unless you press it very hard. There's no click action to indicate it's actually blocked, it's the…

Pros
  • Includes two sizes of latches and washers to adjust the latch
Cons
  • I will add later
