  • This video goes over the inside of a door handle that you would use in your house. Specific details will vary for different door handles. Parts covered in this video: handle, rosette, latch, latch assembly, and locking mechanism. The locking mechanism was simplified a lot. If you were to take a real one part you would find a lot more intricate parts.

    Holy flip, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
    I'm not even kidding, I accidentally locked myself in a room with the door handles (and therefore also the spindle piece) taken out, because I thought the door would just open back up or something if I pulled on it.
    I know shutting the door in the first place was probably a bit of a moronic move, but this video was ACTUALLY a legitimate lifesaver for me, because I seriously couldn't have gotten out, otherwise. You are absolutely amazing. Thank you so much for this!!

    It's fascinating that this design hasn't changed much in a long time. This helped me fix my broken bathroom doorknob, the springs weren't retaining as they should be, and shaft was warped, not bad for a 12 year old knob but it had to go.

    Seeing the montrosity of the things inside the handle made me already give up on trying to understand, but once you assured me of showing one piece at a time and clearly showed their function and purpose individually, while gradually showing how the "chain reaction" works, it all made sense. Perfect!

    I had this weird thought when I was trying to sleep a few weeks ago. I wondered how door handles worked. I tried thinking for myself how they work but couldn’t quite do it. I couldn’t let go of this thought, I thought about it everyday. I tried thinking of different ways it could work but I came up with none, I couldn’t wrap my head around the concept of a door handle. It drove me sick. I couldn’t sleep anymore. Whenever I closed my eyes, all I saw was a door handle. It taunted me. Taunted me for not knowing how it worked. It ruined my life. I couldn’t do anything anymore, not even the simplest of task. I was slowly going insane, and I knew it. Doors became an obstacle in my everyday life, I no longer even saw the doors, only the door handles. And they were taunting me. I couldn’t take it anymore. I was on the verge of a break down.That’s why I came here, to finally get the answer. To get the key back to my sane life. And I can tell you, it saved my life. It really did. I don’t know what I would have done if it wasn’t for this video.
    I’m a recovering door handle addict, and this is my story.

    Superb animation, well-done! I especially love that you named all the parts, as that it makes it easy for me to describe a problem to a support desk. Instead of, "Well the problem is in the cylindrical thingie that moves when the doodad is turned," I can correctly say, "the problem seems to be in the latch assembly because the cam drive units aren't moving smoothly, but the handles with the rosettes work fine." Thank you!

  • @ladyt2588
    @ladyt2588 Před 7 lety +6

    I swear...I just locked myself in my room after only installing the "latch" piece in the middle with no knobs and of course after closing the door to see if the "bevel" was facing the right way. This showed me how a door lock mechanism works so I learned how it must be manipulated with no knobs..

    Today, I got locked inside my bedroom when rotating the handle would not pull the latch. It was 5 am. I was on 22nd floor apartment, alone in the house, main door with safety door locked from inside. I watched this video on CZcams to learn the concept. Luckily, i could open the screws around the rosette using some household item because there was no screwdriver in the bedroom. I realised that the actual assembly was exactly as part the video. Unfortunately, the cage of cam was too concealed and too strong to open the latch. I realised after tinkering the assembly that the square spindle was loose and towards outside, so i pulled it back in, refixed the rosette around the spindle properly. Then I turned the handle holding the rosette. The latch opened and i finally rescued myself out. Thanks a lot. Without this video, it would be impossible to come out of this ordeal myself

    Thankyou. I needed to know how something can rotate either direction to do the same thing. SO HELPFUL.

    U saved my life if it wasn’t for this video … my kids and I got trapped in our bedroom due to a defective door knob. My kids often watch your videos and my youngest gave me the idea to watch your video on how door knobs work! We were able to dismantle it and was out of the room. TYSM!

    This was awesome! The explanation was thorough, diagrams were clear. My 5 year old and I learned together.

    I really needed to pee but i was stuck in my room. Videos about fixing jammed door latch all weren't helpful, because they were all showcasing it from the outside of the room or had the wrong lock type. This video was exactly what mine looked like so it helped a lot in figuring out what I'm dealing with. I'm finally free and don't have to pee in a bottle in my room. Thank you so much.

    So I got locked into my own room because something broke in my doorknob causing it to stay locked, because of this video I was able to disassemble the doorknob and remove it’s insides. This was very helpful. Thank you!
