My home is a Victorian from the 1880s. I needed to replace an internal door knob set. Modern sets don?t work in these vintage doors, so I was very glad to find this one. Installation was a breeze - less than 10 minutes (and I?m not handy). The knob looks and works great, although I?ll have to refinish the door next spring because the replacement plate is a different size and shape than what was there before. Always something to do in these older homes! Would DEFINITELY recommend- and I?m planning on buying more to update the hardware on some other doors.
