@NeeziafyАй бұрын
The knob came off on its own, lol. I could grip the gold part better and twist it off. The inside part fell off on the other side 😅. I would have just forced it open eventually. Luckily, I didn't have to. Hope you got in 😊

thankyou! I went through eight other videos before finding this one, but all the other videos had doorknobs with a pinhole, whereas my doorknobs are exactly like in this video - no screws or pinhole. Now i'll finally be able to get some WD40 in them!
