Replacing your door hardware is an easy way to make a significant impact without renovation hassle. We often get asked when is it time to replace door hardware. Well, there are a few different reasons to do so.
Below are some examples of when it’s time to change out old hardware for something more functional.
Sticking Door
Are you having trouble opening doors in your home? Over time, hinges and hardware can wear down, causing the door to malfunction.
You can oil the hinges to help, but sometimes the hardware is so worn it’s best to replace it. Especially if the door is no longer latching or the knob is no longer turning.
Before you purchase a new door, swap out the hardware. Properly working hinges and door hardware can expand a door's life by many years.
Missing Parts
Inexpensive door hardware can quickly wear down from continued use. Often, parts like privacy pins, screws, latches, and even door knobs fall off and go missing.
