When we first moved in we did a couple upgrades to the house’s hardware. Mainly door knobs were replaced in this refurbishment. But to save money, we didn’t replace them all – just the ones truely in need. I may have over estimated the ability of 34 year old door knobs to last because since that time (a mere 2 months ago) another 2 knobs have lost their spring. I have to pull them back to a normal position after turning them. I’ve included before and after shots to show you exactly what I mean.
So I think now, these are on my shopping list. I might even be able to afford them before next year since knobs are usually really affordable!
