How to quickly install a door knob (Secret Tab!) #diy #homerepair

It was only recently that I discovered there is a SMALL TAB located on interior door-knobs that allows them to be easily removed in order to properly tighten the bolts that holds everything together. Easily change-out your existing door hardware or simply remove to paint the door and then quickly re-install!

Not all doorknobs have this, just checked every one in my house and none of them have the tab or a set screw

Learn something new everyday! No more scratching new doorknobs

Some require an allen wrench bit to counter clock twist to remove as well.

Excellent information, I'm going to check my knobs for that access

Not all interior knobs have these but MOST do

[ShuskyBaluski]

Then they should make all of them like that cause the one I just replace certainly doesn’t have that !

I just drill a hole through the knob because i don't like scratching the bronze finish

I do not have that type of door handle I have the same thing but not that secret thing. I can I install it back to my door. It came undone this morning

No way... Does that work with handles too?

I am legit angry that I never knew this. 😊

Oh damn, that pisses me off absolutely pisses me off to the point where you buy a right angle screwdriver to screw it on pisses me off
Thanks for the info dude my wife and I are both laughing

Why do people use knobs instead of levers? Levers are great for pushing and pulling doors open and closed PLUS if you are limited on hands than they a re much easier to open. You dont even need free hands!

You'd know of this 'hack' if you'd read the instructions that come with the new know you're installing.
