> 3 dayThese knobs were a simple but remarkable upgrade to my home. They are great quality and come with extra hardware for different types of striker plates etc. clearly the company took note of some reviewers complaining about the “non standard” plates. Now you have options. These were super easy to install, no modifications needed to my door or frame— just a few screws and ba-dah-bing: modern hardware

> 3 dayGreat product and looks amazing on my white doors. There is 1 flaw in the door jamb strike plate is squared off instead of rounded corners. i used a grinder and just rounded the edges off. You cannot tell it after its installed. Im not sure why they do this because the locking version for bedrooms comes with a rounded strike plate.

> 3 dayThey look nice installed, but you’ll have an annurysm trying to get it installed! We’ve gotten 1.5 of 5 installed - may hire a handyman to do the rest.

> 3 dayAs others have mentioned, this knob was not the easiest knob to install. The positioning of the screws makes installation time consuming, but it is doable. I found that using a jewelers (phillips head) screwdriver made it much easier to screw the screws in. Or, find a screwdriver in your set with the thinnest shaft and try using that.

> 3 dayNote that this is just one side. I didn’t realize that and I had to order another two for both doors. I figured it would come with two knobs like a normal doorknob would have. But alas this wasn’t true for the dummy ones.

> 3 dayWas a little disappointed that the black plate on the inside part of the knob was loose, I took some glue to prevent it from spinning but I shouldn’t have to do that with something brand new. Overall the finish and style is very contemporary and clean.

> 3 dayProduct is very nice. However, someone asked a question if it included 2 knobs for both sides of the door and the answer was YES. It is only one knob for one side of the door. It does say this in the description and shame on me I missed it. Question: Does this come with two knobs? One for each dide of the door? Answer: This item comes with interior, exterior and all parts to install. By BuildingProductsOnly Seller on August 10, 2017 Yes. By cadair on August 10, 2017 Yes By Donna on August 11, 2017

> 3 dayPassage hall knobs, Greyson style: First, install was hard because the instructions did not apply to these knobs. They have a cover that blocks the screw holes (to look pretty i guess). I searched a long time online for instructions and only found vague comments here in the reviews and Q&A. YIu have to insert a flathead screwdriver into a slot on the neck of the knob to depress a flap and then pull the knob off the rest of its fixture - then you can remove the faceplate / rosette / cover and access the screw holes. The knob pops back on when done, no problem if only one has instructions for this! But then I realized the rosettes are simply loose, even after I mess with them to try to get their little metal overlap hold spots to overlap more. This is especially true on one side. Install does not tighten it. Slamming the door or having your hand hit it makes it loose and rattle and spin. Annoying. Lastly, this model is simply uncomfortable to use. The neck is too short and the plate too thick, leaving little room for our hands to grip the knob--my knuckles press on the cover plate too hard. And the corners are too rectangular to feel nice. (I have small hands and love our other models of Schlage knobs). While the metal components feel superior to our Kwiksets we were replacing, this was not an upgrade, and I am putting the Kwiksets back on. I might try for the Georgian or Colonial models instead. Sadly, I installed these long after the returns period, and the problems only show up when installing and using them.
