How To
How to replace the doorknob
A combination of functional and decorative design would make the best replacement. A door handle with a beautiful finish could easily replace an ordinary doorknob.
The key here is to ensure that whatever you choose looks like the original and is easy for people to operate.
A shiny brass knob might be too much if other shiny finishes are already around the house. You can go ahead and buy it if there's nothing else in the space.
A more subtle option would be to find a knob that matches the existing hardware but doesn't match the overall style of the rest of the home. This is a great option if you are renovating your kitchen cabinets or installing a new countertop in another area of the house.
