Door Knob Replacement Project in Midtown Toronto
This Midtown Toronto project involved replacing a broken door knob that was not a straightforward off-the-shelf swap. The thickness of the existing door meant that standard replacement knobs the client had looked at were not a suitable fit.
CanRenovation reviewed the existing door hardware and helped identify a replacement knob that matched the installation requirements before returning to complete the replacement.
Assessing the Existing Door and Broken Knob
The project started with the existing broken knob and the dimensions of the door. Because the door was thicker than what many common replacement knobs were designed for, choosing compatible hardware was an important part of the job.
The client had already tried to find a suitable replacement, so the existing setup was reviewed before the correct hardware option was identified.
Finding Hardware for the Door Thickness
A replacement knob suitable for the existing door thickness was identified, and the client was connected with the supplier so the required hardware could be ordered.
Once the replacement hardware was available, the installation could proceed without modifying the project around an incompatible standard-size knob.
Installing the Replacement Door Knob
The broken knob was removed and the new door hardware was installed in its place. The replacement was fitted to the existing door so the knob and latch could operate together normally.
During the same visit, a few additional property-preparation items were also addressed, including small areas of baseboard damage and a wall touch-up.
The Finished Midtown Toronto Door Hardware Project
The completed project replaced the damaged door knob with hardware suited to the thickness of the existing door while also taking care of several smaller repair items during the visit.
This Midtown Toronto door knob replacement project shows why door dimensions and hardware compatibility matter when a standard replacement does not fit the existing setup.
