Very clear instructions. You should get paid to make videos assembling things all around the house! Thanks man!

When I replaced the handles on my door this year I really wanted one like that. But I was afraid I'd make a mess of it. You give me the confidence to do things myself. Thanks for taking the fear out of DIY. Happy New Year to you and your family!

How did you know? Who told you that I have a doorknob that has been sitting in the box for 6 months or more because I am afraid to install it? Who told you? Just kidding. Not about the doorknob I have had for over 6 months though. Now, I am going to Home Depot to purchase a new drill bit. Must be sharp. Thank you doesn't seem enough for the confidence you just gave me to do mine. Thanks for sharing. Happy New Year!!! 🍾🥂🎉🎊

Great video! I’m a musician, which as is often the case, means I’m the least handy person around. I ordered the exact door handle from your link and installed it myself. I even drilled a hole. Woot, woot! Thank you so much!

First time home owner. This is exactly what i needed to get started. Thanks!

Appreciate this video … you were right, I was worried about installing new door handle with the hole thing at bottom!

Thanks! I was scared to drill into my front door but this video gave me the confidence to give it a shot. My new door handle looks great!👍

Thanks for this. I've been wanting to install one of this since I got my smart deadbolt and now I see that it's not as complicated as I thought. Well done!

I am putting one on today and this was a tremendous help. I was in the same predicament with the requirement to drill a hole in the door.

Great video! I NEVER would have been able - never would have had the confidence to do my install without it! Thank you bro! Halfway through the video, I just started taping and drilling! LOL!!

Thank you for this easy to understand and follow video. I'm installing this door handle tomorrow. I feel confident I can do it.

Kwikset needs to sponsor you! This week installing a pull handle (informative as always!) and 3 weeks ago the powerbolt lock. Another great video!

Excellent step by step instructions. Thank you!

Thanks for this video. It helped me a lot when installing my handle. Especially for the tips on drilling through my door.

Thanks. You made it a lot easier. I was scared to change my door. Thanks Again!!!!

I was not looking forward to drilling a hole in my door. Now ,after seeing your video, I can`t wait!

Great instructions, I just i talled mine and it works great! Thank you so much! 💓

Appreciate the video! My install was on a wood door but the instructions worked great.

thank you for this video. you made my task of replacing the door handle much easier ❤

Happy New Year! Thanks for the info, I was always confused about how door handles work. Once it's explained it feels much less intimidating.

Great job; and great instructions. I agree with 1styoudummy's comment about drilling through the door from one side in order to ensure the opposing holes line up. Coming across your video is timely. I am replacing a basement door with a double patio door. I am installing a decorative door handle on the door. My first time installing one.

Thank you for making your videos so helpful

Just what I was looking for. Thanks!

Excellent tutorial; thanks!

Well done sir, thank you. I feel more confident doing the job myself

The handles are different because right and left. You installed it upside down. Also, you’ll never be in the same place by punching through. I square it off and measure back. Taking or adding a 16th for the door bevel. Good job. Commercial superintendent here. I do TI.

Sooo helpful! Thank you!!

Happy New Year. Another nice clear video. Thanks!

Great instructions!!! I just hope I can do it as easily as you do. Wish me luck this my first stab at it.....

Thanks so much for sharing this!!!

Well, that was very close. Here I was thinking you would let us go into 2022, without another video. Thank goodness that wasn't the case. Keep 'em coming, looking forward to more in 2022!

Great video! Thank you!

Thanks for the video!

I need 1 of those for my back door thank you so much for sharing your video with us 👍

Excellent directions

Beautiful!!!!

That sounds great.

Great video, thanks

Awesome. Thanks.

love the look of the lock set. i see plenty of those handles and they are always crooked! nicely done!

Very good. Thanks

You’re as ocd as me, it was so refreshing to see tips from someone who over thinks things just like me lol

We need a video of everything you've done so far/totourial of your home. I would like to evaluate how much you've increased the value.

Awesome!

Another great video! Just did this a month ago to my front door with a Shlage door handle pull. Had to drill a hole in a metal door like this one. Turned out good, but this video would've made it a lot less stressful. Happy New Year Fixer!

thank you so very much that was amazing way to show how to do it

Good video

Thanks

When I bought my home, I wanted to change the door handle. It was my first DIY project on my new home and helped me get tools. The old door handle had already drilled hole for the bottom so very easy to change out with the new one. Also, I’m surprised the bottom peg is adjustable on that Kwikset 🤯 That’s cool! Happy New Year! 🏝🤙

the itnerior door handle is the wrong one. its supposed to look like hair blowing in the wind. but other than that, i like these instructional videos for what many consider "easy" projects cause i was once new to fixing things and videos like these would have helped me tremendously. you are a saint. love your stuff. looking forward to the future

Thank you so much! I got a new handle and opened it and saw the template and wasn't sure what it was for. Thankfully I already have a long handle so there's already a hole and I just confirmed the hardware is adjustable so this should be easy!....I shouldn't have said that.

Thanks for posting. I see you use Ryobi alot. Do you have a video about your chosen tools or tool set reviews? Great content! Look forward to watching every video!

You come the closest I've found to solving my problem - but not quite solved! At minute 12:39-12:52 you describe installation of the "decorative button on the bottom - put it so the notch goes toward the bottom so if you ever have to take the the knob off." On my door, the bottom bolt is loose. Turning the button has no effect, so I want to remove the decorative button and re-screw the bolt. BUT... there is no notch in the decorative button. I can't figure out how to get the button off, or otherwise find a way to tighten the bottom bolt. Any ideas how to fix this out there?

Doesnt the bevel need to go on the inside? Its so easy to pop a lock open by pushing on the bevel

Thanks for the great video! Can you please let me know where you picked up the latch spacer plate?

On the handle, can you lock it from the inside?

Do you have to screw in the bottom of the handle? It’s screwed in at the top so it should still be secure without drilling the bottom yeah?

Can you use the template on both sides to match the holes?

I have a similar set but I can’t for my life drill that bottom hole. Using a new cobalt bit but it just won’t go. I’m using a no-name drill that someone gave me as a gift. Is it possible it’s the drill?

Video idea: how to add a light with not attic access. First floor room with no central light. Have this issue in my house right now. If you want to come to Ohio I'll let you film here!

Can you drill that bottom hole in all door types ?

Question 🙋‍♂️ what the purpose of these door handles with no lock ? I know deadbolts are the main but wouldn’t hurt to have just a bit more security?

Where do you insert the key?

Hi Mr. I will appreciated if provide me with model number of the door handle pull you are installing. I need to fix mine or to buy it exacly the same so I do not need to make holes or cut for a different model. I just need to replace the indorr handle the one you that give you the option to put it in one way or in the other way up . the little allen screww is broken and i cant take it out. My is exactly the same like the want you have . thank you

This is the same door as the previous video where you showed how to program a keypad lock.. but that video is older and this handle is installed aready

Strange handle and lock what I'm used to anyways.. Little tip when using cordless drill, screwing it not the hole way and tightening it with regular screw driver so that you don't over tightening and f**k up the screw hole. cool 😎 gg

Fixer, where did you get the paper template used to ensure exact alignment with the door and pull handle?

Why didn't you use longer screws on the sticker plate? Just curious.

Hey, Tom! I just used the ones that came with the door. The longer screws are really important to add to the deadbolt plate as that is the locking part of this handle/deadbolt combo. Thanks for watching!

I replaced it bc it wouldn’t retract and the new one does the same. Would you know why. Thank you for your help.
