    Interior Door Hardware Styles

    Today, there are variety of levered door handle models as well as traditional door knobs that homeowners can choose. Depending on either the needs of you or your various houseguests, something to potentially keep in mind is that easier to turn levered handles on doors are mandatory for all public spaces to be handicap accessible.

    For utility spaces like closets, which use basic swinging doors, simple “dummy” door handles can be installed as either door knobs or lever handles. Usually these handles are cheap, since they don't actually turn like normal door knobs and only need two screws for installation.

    For master bedrooms and in all bathrooms, you may want door hardware that will keep these spaces private. A locking set of door knobs has handles on each side of door; usually one side has a standard handle, and the other side has either a twist or button lock. Locked handles and door knobs can also be made with keyholes for unlocking from the outside.

    Additionally, it's important to have interior door hardware that is consistent with the rest of your home's style. Many homeowners are used to traditional polished brass finishes, which tend to suit the wood or wood-finished interior doors most commonly found in homes today. Variants of brass door knobs are also available for classic wood architecture, and bronze treatments for door knobs are another sophisticated alternative.

    In an antique or historic older homes with Victorian-era architecture, elegant crystal door knobs are an ideal choice. Although usually the most expensive style of door knob, the full experience of a Victorian home is greatly enhanced by the beauty and unique quality of crystal and glass door knobs.

    Metal door knobs can be a great choice for homes that already feature a modern style. Smooth steel door knobs can add a sleek and defined finishing touch to your contemporary home.

    Costs for Door Hardware

    Usually standard brass door knobs are the least expensive, ranging from $10 for a simple ball-shaped knob to $30 or more for more contemporary handles. Prices for bronze treated door knobs begin around $50, while modern metal handles usually start around $100. Finally, ornate crystal door knobs tend to have the widest price range, with the least expensive options available for around $100, and fancier designs running as high as $500 or more.

    Bottom Line: Hardware for Style and Function

    When it comes to the overall style of your home, the knobs and other hardware you choose to round out your doors are a small but significant factor to keep in mind. Whether shopping for elegant Victorian door knobs, or searching for the perfect addition to a minimalist modern home, there are numerous hardware options to suit your needs.
