Brass is corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant, maintaining its texture even after long-term use, combining aesthetics and practicality.For interior doors requiring privacy, such as bedroom doors, bathroom doors, and study doors, a retro home décor style is the top choice.

Universal Fit – 1-3/8” to 1-3/4” Doors

Suitable for all standard interior doors with a thickness of 1-3/8 inches to 1-3/4 inches (35-45 mm). This door handle latch uses either a fixed backset of 2-3/8 inches (60 mm) or a 2-3/4 inch (70 mm) backset (two options available).

Please confirm the location of the pre-drilled holes on your door before purchasing to ensure compatibility and avoid installation problems.

Easy Installation – Important Step Before Assembly

Before inserting the spindle, please use the included hex key to loosen the small screw at the bottom of the knob. Then push the spindle through and tighten the screw again to secure it. This step ensures smooth rotation, proper function, and allows the knob to sit flush against the door.

This looks and feels like a quality door knob. It is heavy, has no visible defects, and I very much like the shape.

It comes with squared and rounded versions of both the latch plate and strike plate, and all components are significantly better quality than my existing knob had.

It was reasonably straight forward to install. The instructions are a bit weird in that they don't really explain what to do initially, but then have more directions toward the end that do explain the rest of what should have been said to begin with, and then there is a QR code that links to a YouTube video showing how to do it. Between all three, everything you need to know is shown. The instructions include templates for cutting the door hole if you are starting with an uncut door. In my case, I was just replacing an existing knob.

There were a few small issues I ran into while installing. The knobs were a little finicky to slide onto the main bar that connects them, but when aligned exactly right with the knob tightening screws loosened, they did slide on alright and were completely secure and good once in place. Next, the locking rod that you push to lock the door did not really want to thread into place initially. It would turn maybe 1/8th turn and stop, which is bad because then it's sticking way too far out toward the knob. I wrapped it with a rubber band and used pliers to force it past that point and it continued to thread as expected all the way in. Lastly, the latch initially was rubbing on the latch plate just a bit, which was making it not want to open and close smoothly. I took the plate off, lightly scraped the inside with a file and reinstalled, and now it's fine. I don't think the filing really did much, so maybe the plate alignment simply wasn't quite right initially.

Having said all that, I don't want to leave you with an impression that there are real problems with the knobs and parts. Ultimately, it is solidly installed, and looks and feels great. The only thing I'd change is making the locking rod shorter since it does stick out quite a bit. The price seems a little steep, but it really seems well -made, so maybe it is reasonable...I'm not familiar with door knob prices. All things considered, I'd recommend this.

Update:
After a couple months of using this daily, I felt compelled to update this review just to say how much I like this doorknob. It is excellent, and after decades of living in houses with the cheapest possible doorknobs, this is a massive and much appreciated upgrade.
