Attaching a Loose Door Handle

[@jamesdowns1246]

I'm so grateful for people like you who take a couple of minutes to explain basics to someone like me who is challenged around any set of tools and any set of minor issues that happen within a home. Honestly I would have called a handyman to come put on a new door handle.

[@lightexplorer]

This should be promoted to the top. I had to go through a bunch of useless videos to find this right one. Thanks for the fix.

[@olgaroden2982]

Thank you for posting such a simple video. I knew I could fix the door but had no idea what kind of tool I needed to used, Thanks to your video, my door handle is all fixed!!!

[@Fer9617]

Thank you so much for the tip that turning the screw to the right would tighten the handle. That seems backward as I was turning the screw to the left thinking the screw would come out and grab the handle to prevent it from coming loose. Yours is about the 10th video on this topic I watched today and no one mentioned that.

[@kyandmoore]

Thank you!!! Straight to the point, easy fix.... wish I looked for your video sooner!

[@VoicesEnEspanol]

Thank you for posting this video and keeping it short and sweet. You saved me a trip to Home Depot to buy a new lockset.

[@vanessamosley5645]

Thank you for being so easy to understand. You should be the model for all DIY videos!!

[@mo-cycle]

Thank you so much!!! My door knob fell off, and I noticed a hole but I couldn't find a screw until I saw this video. It was just inside the whole time!!!

[@davewoughter9287]

So simple yet I shopped for a screw that I thought fell out until I saw this video. After watching this video I grabbed a 3/32 Allen wrench and fixed it in 2 minutes. Thanks!

[@deathsceane]

Thanks for the quick video. You can imagine my surprise when I pulled the handle off while half awake.

[@w1justice470]

omg just saved my life thought i broke it and i move out tomorrow

[@MrSonia104]

Thank you so much. I had to watch so many videos, but you hit the nail on the head

[@secyb-e-l3748]

You are heaven sent! Straight to the point, thank you!!

[@michelefitzmaurice4610]

Thank you, straight to the point, problem solved!!! Yay!

[@lagoonguy]

thank you! and i knew there was a reason we kept all these allen wrenches left for us when we bought the house. i too was looking for the screw - when all you have to do is tighten it.

[@iascion5172]

Thank you for showing me how to fix this sir! You are awesome!

[@elba317]

Wow..I was looking into replacing the whole handle...thank you. Thank you. Thank you!!!

[@DeanneMcIntosh-x3r]

Thank you so much - Your video help solve a problem that was bugging me for days. And I didn't even need to go to Home Depot to fix.

My hero. thanks

Hey Noah, big fan of all of your content. Currently in a weird spot mentally where I’m wanting more but conversely perfectly content in the stage of life I’m in, cause I have the flexibility to apply myself outside of my job and learn/focus on where I want to go in the next 3-5, as well the coveted work life balance of soon to be 2 boys under 2. But also battling internally on working for someone vs myself. I feel like ripping the bandaid, but also know there is more for me to learn within my field before doing so. Any one liners, from your experience or another’s, that will help me out? One that sticks out to me is from Richest Man in Babylon where you must first seek the knowledge, but that’s me looking for my own justifications. Ps, came here cause my handle keeps falling off, but also taking my shot at a response cause I saw your reply with no likes / comment from a month ago.

[@ballllllllla4lyfe]

Additionally in the lonely mix of having outgrown old friends being the only one to have kids & given up that “party / go with the flow” life, as well as pressing forward into my career development but not near the top quite just yet. Interesting but exciting times ahead

[@adilbasha2338]

Thank you for posting this. Helped me fix my door handle easily.

[@bigjohn7057]

Thanks, worked like a charm. I’m not very mechanically inclined and I thought I would have to go buy a new door knob

[@kutrabilada8865]

Thank you so much. I am 73 yrs. old female, live alone and this was my entrance door. I was very worried about how I was going to get out .😂😂😂 I fixed it.

[@ricbaggedyomommz]

Thx man I fixed this crap I’m 18 btw n honestly the only hard part was finding the right size for it

[@TheGreatMrMagoo]

Dude you just saved a whole lot of stress thank you. Im far from a handyman feeling godly now.

[@namrathay.s1687]

Searched the internet but couldn't find this solution! Thanks a lot!!!

[@billspiegel6605]

Thanks so much! Used a (very small) flat-head screwdriver, but the same basic idea. Very helpful video.

[@captcraig777]

As stupid as this seems, thank you for uncovering the secrets of puzzle that was my front door knob!

[@taiachea3097]

None of my allen keys fit despite having a large set, so i used a torx set instead and it worked great. Thank you for the explanation

[@soniaruss9843]

Thank you, thank you, thank you so much for posting this!!

[@azuresins6904]

I had two similar handles come loose in my house, I didn't have an allen wrench but I had a small drill bit that happened to be the size I needed and it solved the problem. Thank you so much for posting this, the handles are black and I didn't even realize the hole for the screw was even there!!! I thought I had to call someone to replace the whole knobs.

[@subtlesultry7251]

Me too!

[@djabthrash]

Did you use the drill bit as a screw itself or to "screw" the existing screw ? :)

[@azuresins6904]

@@djabthrash I used the drill bit in place of the allen wrench, to tighten or "screw" the existing screw

[@djabthrash]

@@azuresins6904 Gotcha ! Thank you !

[@sherilynalexnder897]

God bless you for posting this - we suddenly have a handle flying right off, and I thought I needed a new one. Hopefully, we have the right size wrench.

[@janelle091]

We used a straw cleaner to tighten it🤣

Omg. Thank you so much. I was spending so much time trying to fix it. ❤

[@cactusmom]

Thank you so much! It worked.

[@84uniqueness]

What if the pin or screw is missing? Can it be replaced

[@markbailey5017]

If the set screw truly is missing, yes, hardware store should have one. But many times it looks like it’s missing but it is really there.

Thank you so much for this.

[@Reed0069]

Thanks so much for this video; it saved a lot of headache (and money). In my case, I needed a size 3/32 allen wrench (perhaps the screw sizes are around the same size for these door handles).

[@chadrepstx7433]

Big help! Thank you so much!

[@greedog47]

What is general size of the hex key to use?

[@djabthrash]

Most people say 3/32"

[@pratikmistry7143]

What to do if by mistake we remove the inside brass pin screw ?

[@nealkumar4112]

I got the handle off but can’t get the rose plate off? I have the same exact one. Is there a specific trick to get it off?

[@markbailey5017]

To take the plate off, you just need to pry it it with a very flat edge tool - standard screw driver should do the trick if it is thin enough.

I've tried all of my Allen wrenches, but none will fit...how can I find one that works

[@franciscopagan5820]

thank you so much!

[@DsGalaxies]

Thank you.

[@jimmyp410]

Not that it makes a difference but when you turn it clockwise your running the setscre further in and it goes into a whole internally on the other side which locks it in place, not backing it out so that it's locked into the whole your putting the Allen key through.

[@raptureready3015]

Thank you!

[@andreavessels7234]

Does anyone know what size the screw is itself? Mine is completely gone

[@Rashid_Ali01]

What size wrench please?

I love you for this video thank you 😊 💓

[@denhazeybroshd2865]

I kept trying to tighten mine and the pin will not come out enough to hold the handle on. What am I doing wrong?

Thank you!!

[@rollthers3157]

What size hex key is that? Metric or SAE?

[@melinda6106]

Thank you!!!!!!

[@robin6290]

What happens when that hole for the allen wrench has been stripped? Not sure how to replace such tiny screws or where to get replacement storm door handle screws.

[@markbailey5017]

No clue once it is stripped. I would suggest getting a new handle. They aren't that expensive to be honest.

[@MikeMiddleton323]

THANK YOU!!

[@rodrigovilchez3374]

Very helpful thank you

[@bonnieculp3035]

Thank you thank you thank you. I think even I can do that.

[@ohshitmariah]

I did that once and it fixed it for a month but now it’s happening again and it won’t tighten, idk if the screw is even still in there.. do they sell replacement screws? If u know 😅

[@markbailey5017]

I would think that if it worked when you fixed it once, the screw is def still in there. If it slips off after tightening, then maybe it isn’t. But if it doesn’t slip off after tightening, then the screw is doing its job and is there. And if it loosens over time (more quickly than you think it should) perhaps time for a whole new handle? I have no idea if they sell individual screws. A question for Ace or Home Depot dude!
