How to Choose Door Knobs

Functionality

Consider the door's purpose – privacy, passage, or entry – and select knobs with the appropriate locking or latching mechanisms.

Security

Prioritise security features, such as key locks or privacy buttons, depending on the room's needs.

Budget and Quality

While it’s tempting to opt for the cheapest option, investing in higher-quality door knobs can result in better durability and longevity, saving you money in the long run. Research brands and read reviews to ensure you're getting the best value for your budget.

Ergonomics

Ensure the knob is comfortable to grip and turn, promoting ease of use and accessibility.

Style and Aesthetics

Consider the overall theme and design of your home. Choose door knobs that complement your interior decor, whether it's a vintage, contemporary, or rustic style.

Material and Finish

Opt for durable materials like brass, stainless steel, or ceramic, and select finishes that resist wear and match your home's overall look.

FAQS on Door Knobs

What types of door knobs are available? 

There is a wide variety of door knobs, including passage, privacy, dummy, and keyed entry knobs. Passage knobs are non-locking and ideal for closets, while privacy knobs come with a lock, suitable for bedrooms and bathrooms. Keyed entry knobs offer security and are used for exterior doors.

How do I determine the right door knob size for my door? 

Measure the borehole diameter in your door – most standard door knobs fit a 50mm borehole. Additionally, consider the door thickness; standard knobs fit doors that are 35mm to 45mm thick.

Can I install a door knob myself? 

Yes, many door knobs come with installation kits and detailed instructions. However, if you're unsure or uncomfortable with DIY tasks, it's best to hire a professional locksmith or carpenter for proper installation.

What is the difference between a door knob and a door lever? 

While both serve the same function, door levers are often preferred for their ease of use, especially for people with mobility issues. Door knobs, on the other hand, offer a classic look and are available in various styles and finishes. Choose the one based on your aesthetic preference and ergonomic needs.
