In this material we will look at how to disassemble the knob handle, which has become unusually widespread on interior doors. We will also learn along the way how these handles are installed. Below you can find not only instructions in pictures, but also watch a video.
To install the knob handle, you need to mark and make two main holes on the door, according to the template, which is usually included with the handle with installation instructions. So, let's start installing the handle, disassembling it along the way.
Given an interior door:
We make a hole from the end of the door leaf for the latch. Hole diameter from 23 to 25 mm: It is convenient to make the hole with a so-called feather drill for wood.
Using a wood crown with a diameter of 50 mm, a through hole is made for the main fastening of the handle. The distance from the end of the blade to the center of the hole is 60 or 70 mm, depending on the latch that is included in the kit.
A template for installing a knob handle from some manufacturers can be found in the form of a stencil on inside packaging box or in the attached instructions. It is very convenient to use ready-made kits for installation, which are called “installation kits.” interior handles" It’s not scary (and often, on the contrary, it’s useful) if the holes are made with a diameter 1-2 mm larger than recommended. The latch mechanism is two-position: it provides the ability to install a knob on a door with different widths of the first door beam. The standard distance between the center of the knob handle and the edge of the door leaf is 60mm:
but by moving the sleeve under the square, you can set the distance to 70 mm:
The standard height for installing the handle on the door is approximately 950 mm from the floor level. Next, to install the knob handle, we partially disassemble the inner half of the handle to gain access to the holes for the mounting tension screws. To do this, we will use a special “key” from the pen kit or any suitable object, for example, a knitting needle. There is a special hole on the handle through which you should disassemble door handle knob. In the photo shown it is round, but it may be various shapes. This hole is located at the bottom of the handle:
We press the spring-loaded latch through the hole, while simultaneously pulling out the handle of the interior knob.
We take out the handle and remove it completely:
Then you need to pry the outer decorative flange of the handle with any sharp object. Take a closer look; as a rule, the flange has a corresponding groove for this:
Well, the knob handle is disassembled and we have access to the mounting screws
Further assembly of the knob handle occurs on the door in the reverse order.
First, install the latch in the door and secure it with two screws at the end. It will look like this:
The rectangular face plate of the latch mechanism is mounted flush with the door leaf. To do this, having marked under it, use a chisel to select the required depth at the end of the door leaf. The same applies to the knob striker, which is installed according to the markings, on door frame. The required depth is also sampled under it using a chisel.
Next, you can assemble the knob handle onto the door leaf, tightening the disassembled halves with mounting screws. During installation, the handle square and bushings for the mounting screws will pass through the previously installed latch, through its technological holes
Knob handles are universal and are not divided into left/right hand. The design provides for the installation and adjustment of a knob for any door with a thickness of at least 35mm.
If the shape of the knob handle is not symmetrical in the shape of a ball, etc., then having installed the knob on the door, using the method described above, remove the knob handle, and swap the outer and inner handles, achieving their correct location relative to the location of the door leaf( left or right side). The latch or lock mechanism, if any, is also given in correct location, and if required, we also swap the outer and outer sides.
The handle, assembled and installed on the door without distortion, should work easily in both directions and independently, under the action of the return spring, return to its original position. If this does not happen, then you need to check the evenness of the installation, and also tighten or loosen the mounting screws, ensuring they are evenly tightened and the knob handle moves smoothly.
The door in the house plays an important role and performs various functions. There are many types of such designs that can be complemented by certain accessories, such as handles.
This product is a kind of mechanism that allows you to open a kind of damper. Modern doors onyx complete various kinds handles that allow you to adjust them to certain style premises.
Analysis of pressure structures
This type of pen is very popular and is used everywhere today. In order to dismantle such a product, you often only need one screwdriver of a certain size.
The parsing process can be divided into several stages:
- First of all, you need to unscrew a special screw, which can be found on the side or bottom. This all depends on the model. Sometimes, instead of a screwdriver, you need to use a hex wrench, which you need to select according to size. Then remove the decorative trim.
- On at this stage you need to unscrew the main fastener, which has a thread. To do this, you just need to turn it several times in a certain direction.
- When all the fasteners are unscrewed, you can remove the handle. To do this, simply pull it towards you, slightly holding the other side of the product.
Let's look at how to dismantle door handles round type, which can be divided into two types:
- Products with socket. Parsing them is quite simple. To do this, first of all you need to look for a screw fastening, in the form of a bolt or screw. Unscrew it and remove the handle. When such an item is not provided for by the design, then you need to hold one side of the item, turn the other a little, remove it from the thread and pull it towards you. After this, you can begin dismantling the socket and other components castle
- Noba handles. This type of product is much more difficult to disassemble. To do this, it is recommended to use a special key with which you need to clamp the spring mechanism. First of all, remove the decorative trim, then, using a key or nail, move the spring-loaded pin. All this is done in a special technical hole. Then gently pull the handle and remove it. Be sure to also remove the latch from the decorative flange by gently tapping it.
Removing the handle is a fairly simple procedure that just requires care and the correct sequence.

Office glass partitions occupy a dominant place in the architecture of office and other premises, showing lightness, freedom and minimalism in designer interior. It is worth understanding the new style of organizing space.
Construction of glass partitions in rooms
IN recent years office buildings are dominated by lightness and minimalism, created by partitions made of all-glass panels. Glass partitions in shopping centers, large office premises and business centers are no longer a novelty. Glass partitions in an apartment can delimit zones of the room, thereby expanding the spatial living area without the use of additional lighting.
The design of glass ceilings is so diverse, and allows you to carry out any kind of complex task regarding proper organization space. It is possible to install glass partitions in an office of any technological complexity, which does not take a long period of assembling the structure, compared to the construction of permanent walls.
Glass wall ceilings are frameless structures, which are fastened using special fittings and fasteners. Fastening to the surfaces of glass sheets is carried out using:
Clamping profiles;
Brackets;
Plates;
Clip;
Cones and several types of connectors.
Installation of glass sheets to pipes and uneven surfaces using remote clamps. Regarding the design features of glass partitions, it is possible to distinguish the types of structures:
Sliding space ceilings: design with moving individual sections;
Stationary systems are stationary glass blocks;
Mobile devices endowed with the function of access to their quick movement to any necessary place.
Stationary blocks, in fact, are analogues of the walls of the internal ceiling of a space, but made of glass. This type of glass partition can be found in shopping centers. Typical device Glass partitions in apartments are also popular (photos of ceilings are presented on many websites). Stationary blocks can include sliding, hinged or pendulum glass in their design office doors, apartment ceilings of openings, etc. The main element of fastening in typical blocks are clamping profiles.
Sliding blocks of systems can include in their design one or several movable blocks of sections. Floor devices of this type are presented below:
Partition type | Guide type | Guide type | Location area | Sections of canvas |
Sliding: “coupe” | - top | - lower | - along the surface of the wall; - intra-wall space (false wall) | Flat canvases equipped with a lower or upper type of support |
Radial | - top | - lower | — along the surface of the wall; | Curved canvases |
Hanging partitions | - top | — | — along the surface of the wall; | Flat top support sheets |
Transformable | - top | — | — along the surface of the wall in the direction perpendicular to the axis of movement; | There are many canvases, endowed with the ability to move around its axis and an independent type of movement |
Folding: “books” | - top | — | Composite canvases (two or more canvases) | |
"accordion" | - top | — | — along the opening of the wall surface perpendicular to the direction of the axis of movement | Composite (3 or more canvases) |
Evaluation of the largest door factory - VOLKHOVETS
Mobile glass partitions in an apartment or in another room are a group of structures that vary in their design:
folding screens with a frameless base;
sliding screens made of glass on wheels;
fixed block on a support or small sizes cabins, where its sections are sliding, etc.
Sliding and other structures are united by a single fact - the minimal presence of fastenings to surfaces or their complete absence.
Glass blocks: glass used, mounting hardware
Glass partitions in apartments and other rooms are recommended to be made from special durable types glass:
Tempered glass (photos of interior design are presented on many design websites);
Triplex (a block of several layers of glass).
When broken tempered glass small fractions are formed that are not capable of causing injury. To the advantages of the material of this type it is permissible to include:
Heat resistance;
Durability;
Safety;
Resistance to mechanical damage.
Triplex is created from several sheets of glass by gluing them with a polymer film (photos of interior design are presented on many design sites). When the canvas breaks, the fragments are held in place by the film, which eliminates the possibility of injury from the glass. The advantages include qualities:
Impact resistance;
Acid resistance;
Bulletproof ( special type types of material).
If desired, it is permissible to use various options decorative finishing glass surfaces: matting, photo printing, creation mirror surfaces(photos of the interiors are presented on the designers’ websites).
Transformable and other types of glass ceiling blocks are created using the following list of components:
Ceiling guide rail;
Carriages with roller mechanisms;
Locking devices (floor-mounted, surface-mounted, etc.);
Stoppers, closers, plugs;
Fittings, connectors;
Clamping and sealing profiles;
Point fixings;
Clips-clamps.
Hardware manufacturers
It is worth considering the list of manufacturers of high-quality fittings that have proven themselves in the operational process (photos of fittings are presented on the manufacturers’ websites):
Manufacturer's brand | Characteristics indicators |
— environmentally friendly alloys are used in production |
|
— wide range — variability of cost |
|
— quality/price ratio — varied assortment |
|
— original designs accessories – range of products suitable for massive products |
Glass structures: advantages and disadvantages
To the advantageous features glass structures it is permissible to include:
High light transmittance;
Low probability of injury;
Free floor surface;
Silent indicator of operation;
Possibility of equipping with automatic mode of movement of canvases;
Practicality in installation and operation;
Durability;
Fire resistance.
The disadvantages of glass structures include low noise insulation and the “aquarium” effect (transparency) (photos of interior design are presented on many design sites).
We often have to deal with situations such as repairing a door handle, replacing it, or reinstalling it on another panel. The process of removing this element itself is simple, especially if the structure is not equipped with a locking mechanism. How to disassemble a door handle correctly? To do this, you must adhere to certain rules.
Accessories that are distinguished by their beauty and good quality, serves as a wonderful decorative element for any door. Handles familiar to everyone allow you to easily enter and exit the door and use it. Modern industry produces a huge variety of such products, differing in color, shape, quality, price, and material of manufacture.
To ensure that the door is securely fixed in one position and does not open at the slightest movement, it is equipped with a special handle with a latch. This device should ensure soft and smooth movement of the structure. Special attention products of rounded shapes, the lock of which is equipped with a drum closing mechanism, deserve. This requires dismantling the device. In order to carry out such work clearly and systematically, you should prepare necessary equipment:
- Phillips or flat screwdriver;
- key with stop;
- adjustable wrench and pliers.
How to disassemble a round door handle? This problem interests most of the craftsmen who carry out repairs and reinstall the door. Usually these elements on the same plane have a special locking mechanism, which operates from a key. Having prepared the necessary devices for work, you can begin dismantling. How to remove a door handle? To do this, use a flat screwdriver, which can easily remove the decorative elements of the mechanism.
Then they are removed from the valves located at the points where the handles are located. Then, using a key or other pointed product, you need to press on the stopper that appears. At the same time, the handle should be pulled and removed. The screws that appear are unscrewed with a Phillips or flat-head screwdriver. Next, the two halves of the mechanism are removed from the canvas. All screws are removed. The product should be disassembled in the same sequence, observing the reverse order. You need to start by fixing the latch on the canvas.
It is placed with the beveled part of the tongue at the opening point of the structure, then the part is fixed with two screws. After this, the handle parts are installed, it has a turnkey drum device. WITH reverse side a clamping element is placed, then it is secured with screws. During the work, it is necessary to monitor the tightness of the screws, slightly turn the door element and return it to its original position.
If desired, you can center this element. On given point fixed decorative part. The clamping part, fixed to the canvas earlier, is intended for installation of a moving element on it. You should pay attention to the correct location of the square tube and the plate at its base. How to disassemble the handle? To ensure the work is done accurately, it is necessary to rotate the fixing part so that the opening coincides with a square-shaped hole in the same position as a tube of a similar configuration with a flattened plate.
Now you can install the product in its place. After it is in the stopper, you need to apply pressure in a transverse position relative to the clamping element, pressing it in. The part of the product that is being removed should be pushed onto this part all the way. Now you can install the decorative element. For such purposes, it is combined in grooves and put on to the base.
Don't forget to check the handle for strength. After installation, you need to test the effect of this door element, and from both sides. It is necessary to monitor proper work latch and drum device with a key. Any shortcomings that have appeared should be eliminated.
How to disassemble the handle correctly? This simple job can be done on our own, you just need to strictly follow certain steps. Most often, products with latches and locks are installed on interior doors. In order to better understand how to remove the handle, we suggest that you familiarize yourself with the main stages of the process of dismantling this element.
- Study the structure of the handle design. You need to carefully examine it and determine the method of connection to the door.
- Unscrew the fasteners and release the product.
- Handle with interior door, attached to a separate base, unwind. Unfasten the spindle. In the same way, release the product from the opposite side of the door leaf.
If the door leaf needs to be painted in the future, then it is necessary to remove the layer of old paint and clean the base with emery cloth. Then the door must be washed with water detergents, after this the surface should dry. After sanding the canvas, you can begin painting it. To perform the above work and install a new handle, you may need:
- different types of screwdrivers;
- bucket, napkin;
- putty, spatula;
- fine-grain sandpaper;
- grinding block;
- awl;
- drill;
- new door handle with lock, spindle and fasteners.
Installation of a new handle is carried out in a certain sequence.
- Screw in the spindle.
- Using an awl, make marks for the screws that secure the new product.
- Put the handle back in place.
- Make markings. Fix the spindle in the opening by putting a part of the product on it. The awl will help determine the location of the new fasteners that are inserted into the holes of the handle.
- Make indentations at the desired points. Tightly covering the door requires the use of an electric drill.
- Similar actions are carried out on the reverse side of the canvas.
- The handle is fixed on the spindle and attached to the door leaf. In this way, its other part is attached on the reverse side.
Any new product must completely cover the screw holes. If they remain visible, they are sealed with wood filler. Using sandpaper, you can achieve a flawless surface sanding, then you can paint it. The product with a shorter base is replaced with a new one included in the kit. Any element of a pressing nature is represented by the right and left parts; they can have an identical appearance if the spindle is located in the middle of the mechanism.
It is important here to trace the direction of rotation of the product before starting installation. Otherwise, it may be installed incorrectly, and when the door is opened, instead of moving down, it will move up. To the front part locking device To restore the former radiance, it is removed before installation. Unscrew 2 screws and lift the tongue. old paint removed using a special liquid, after which the tongue returns to the specified position.
In order to paint the canvas yourself, the handle is removed. Next, the place that was covered with it is well coated. In this way you can protect the fittings from getting enamel on its surface. Giving the door a new tone should involve applying two layers of paint to the surface. If desired, the canvas can be processed on both sides different colors. To do this, the shade of the surface on which the hinges are located is applied to the end parts.
Clearly and correctly assembled and installed fittings will ensure easy opening and closing of the door regardless of the sides. If visible defects are detected or elements become loose, they must be tightened and adjusted.
An attentive and responsible owner takes time to repair and replace worn-out household items. A door handle is a functional element of fittings, with which, due to frequent use, various problems occur: the mechanism can jam or click. Often the fastening points become loose, causing the handle to become loose and uncomfortable to use. To find out which element has worn out and broken, you need to gain access to the inside of the product. Thus, in order to replace outdated parts or the entire product with a new one, you need to dismantle the fastening from the door leaf. To do this, you should consider in advance the question of how to disassemble the door handle. By becoming familiar with the optimal method, you can reduce the cost of time and effort.
Depending on what type of fitting this element belongs to, the technology for its removal and disassembly will differ. You can easily learn how to remove a handle from a door using a step-by-step disassembly diagram. The main types of designs: stationary, push, rotary or knob handle. Removing a stationary handle from a door is easiest, since it is in no way connected to the lock mechanism. Accordingly, when removing, the push and turn are disassembled.
When may dismantling be necessary?
- Breaking. How more complex design product, the higher the likelihood of an early breakdown. It is also worth paying attention to the cost: door fittings that are too cheap are unlikely to last long. In addition, if the door is used frequently, the fastening may become unusable faster. Therefore, when choosing a product, you should take into account its intensity of use. Where the pen is not used very often, you can choose cheap options. If the handle will have to be repeatedly exposed to workload during the day (for example, for a bathroom door), you should choose a product with high strength ratings.
- Planned renovation of the premises. When creating a new room design, often old products “do not fit” into the new design picture.
- Surface abrasions decorative elements . Typically, the first parts to fail are the internal parts, especially the locking parts and locking tabs. But sometimes inner part serves for a long time without breakdowns, and the outer surface takes on a worn and shabby appearance. In this case, you should consider replacing it.
Stationary handle
Stationary door handles differ from similar products in their simplicity. They are not connected to the lock mechanism and are secured with self-tapping screws or self-tapping screws. Removing and replacing them is not difficult. You just need to unscrew the fastening elements and release the product.
There is another option. If the screws are not visible, you need to rotate one part of the product to the side while holding the other part in place. This is typical for stationary mounts round shape. They are usually fixed using a main axis.
Lever handle
The push structure has an internal mechanism that connects it to the locking tongue. As a rule, these are “L”-shaped products. When you press it, the tongue disappears into the doorway and the door opens freely. The deeper the tongue goes into the hole in the doorway, the more pressure you need to apply. Accordingly, a design that does not require deep pressing is more convenient to use. Fastening is carried out immediately on both sides of the door. General procedure Removing a push-type product:
- Remove the main part. There is usually a bolt or screw on the bottom of the handle that needs to be unscrewed.
- It is necessary to remove the decorative trim, which hides the screws securing the main part of the structure. The cover plate is in most cases attached using threads.
- Unscrew the screws and pull the part towards you, holding the fastener on the other side of the door leaf.
- Taking off design on both sides, you can start releasing the lock.
Knob handle
The peculiarity of the Knob design is that a lock is embedded in its center. At the same time, it may outwardly resemble a conventional rotary or push version. This type of product is most prone to frequent breakdowns, therefore, the most pressing question for the owner is how to disassemble a round door handle. Disassembly of this design may be more difficult than other types door hardware.
Before disassembling it, you should look carefully and find where the pin is located. It is usually located on the side of the room and helps secure the handle to the door. You may have to tinker around to find it, as it may be hidden under a decorative trim. A special key with a stop is often included in the kit when sold.
- Using a screwdriver or other object, clamp the pin.
- Remove one handle and unscrew the screws.
- Remove the second handle.
- Unscrew the bolts and release the lock.
Understand The question of how to mount the knob is not difficult. You need to do all the same manipulations in reverse order.
Round handle with rosette
The method of removing it differs in that it usually requires separating the elements manually. The part that is closest to door leaf, should be held and top part crank This will remove the top piece from the thread.
The second step is to remove the socket, unscrew the screws and remove the axle. Dismantling should be carried out carefully to avoid damage to decorative elements.
Dismantling and disassembling door hardware will not be difficult if you carefully and thoughtfully familiarize yourself with the features of its internal structure.
