Any experts who can help?
We?re renovating our 1930s house. We have six lovely original doors where the whole door knob/handle/latch needs replacing ? the knobs/handles are awful and the doors have been hung very strangely and don?t close, with stuck latches.
Has anyone got any info on
- does the latch need to ?go? with the knobs/handles in any way, or is it a completely separate issue.
- what are the advantages of knobs or handles?
- Any ideas of where to buy stuff? I?ve seen original Bakelite knobs and 30s brass handles on ebay ? should I go for these, or should I go for repros?
- How much should I be paying for reasonable stuff?
-
THANKYOU for any help ? I?m stumped
