Securing Loose Door Handles

Securing Loose Door Handles – I am trying to figure out how to tighten the handle on the front door of a new condo unit. I’ve done a lot of googling and watched some YouTube videos, but they all either have 1) visible screws, 2) a hole that you can press a pin or hex key into, or 3) they’re twist-and-pull Kwikset handles. . My handle doesn’t seem to fit into any of these groups, as it has no visible screws, no holes that I can see, and it’s not a Kwikset handle. Some photos are below. In the 3rd photo, I removed a plate, so the screws are missing.

The “inside” handle (top right/bottom picture) will have a small spring loaded button on the handle post (the part you don’t put your hand on when opening/closing). Use an awl or equivalent tool to press the button and remove the … Read the rest

Renovating An Old House Where To Start

Overall, I feel pretty good about my upcoming goals and the action steps needed to get there. I’m excited for everything I’m going to learn! What I’m most nervous about though is the unknown in the city of Minneapolis and what time it will take to sign my plan.

Modernizing Laundry Room Designs

Modernizing Laundry Room Designs – Greetings from midweek! I’ve been away from the blog for a few days, working on a few things behind the scenes. Just this morning, I had a meeting with my contact at the Committee on the Sheltered (COTS), a local nonprofit I work with every year (see all previous space conversions for COTS here ).

I learned that there are two other homes they use as transitional housing that need to be remodeled, and I will be working on them this fall. These houses excite me very much; There are two more kitchens to be renovated and at least two more bathrooms to be renovated. I’ll be sure to document space transformations here on the blog as I always do!
