How to Replace a Door Knob

[jakstrieder]

I cant figure out how to get my old doorknob off, the handle is too wide to get a screw driver to the one's keeping the two half's in place any advice.

Tnx! You're a life saver! At first I wasn't sure how to put the thingy in the square part, and all the crews, but I did it! (sorry for my accent, I'm dutch ;) )

@dynocapone At first I wasn't sure how to put the thingy in the round part, but after a while you can get the trick. Just be sure not to stick the thingy in the bad round part!!

my 2 door knobs wont pull apart, its an old handle perhaps 10-20 years, got all screws undone and out, but they just wont come apart, any reason?

@danorambo - Check if there is a small rectangular hole on one of the door knobs. If there is, use a small screwdriver and poke it into this hole to release the door knob from the post.

What if there is a cover between the knob and the door preventing access to the screws, this is quite annoying.

Usually there is a small gap underneath the knob that you can insert a small common screwdriver into. With a quick twist you can pop off the door knob cover to get to the screws.

What if the door is shut and the doorknob wont turn? I took the knob apart but the deadbolt is still inside the latch hole and wont come out even after prying it with a screwdriver. .

The latch assembly on my old doorknob was stuck in there pretty badly. just using a screwdriver didn't do it, though it did loosen it up just the tiniest bit. I had to hammer a screwdriver along the edges to loosen it some more, and then when it's stuck out a little more, it could finally be pried out with a wrench.

Thanks for the video!

Sometimes the door knob can stick due to paint. You may need to hit it with the palm of your hand to loosen it.
