Materials Needed

Step 1: Removing the Old Door Knob
Begin by unscrewing the screws on the old door knob using a screwdriver. Once the screws are removed, gently pull the knob and the latch mechanism out of the door.
Step 2: Measuring and Preparing
Measure the diameter of the hole in the door to ensure that your new door knob will fit perfectly. Mark the positions for the new knob and latch plate using a pencil.

Align the new latch mechanism with the hole in the door and secure it in place using the screws provided. Next, attach the new door knob by aligning it with the marked positions and securing it with screws.
