How to Upgrade Front Door Hardware

Fit the lock over the projecting cylinder post, and put the knob's spindle-and-rosette assembly on the thumb-latch post. Fasten both with mounting screws. Next, fit the knob on the spindle and tighten its setscrew. To steady the base of the handle, insert a mounting screw, and hide its head with the decorative cover supplied. Finally, finish off your front-door transformation by drilling holes for and fastening the new knocker and kickplate.
