Repair and Replace Kitchen Cabinet Hardware
Replacing or repairing knobs and pulls on cabinets and drawers is a quick way to give your old kitchen a new look.
Tighten, Polish, or Replace Door Hardware
Nothing ages a room like a loose doorknob. You can tighten mortise-style doorknobs by simply tightening the setscrew on the side of the doorknob. For cylindrical doorknobs, you’ll need to take the doorknob apart.
Clean or Replace Door Hinges
Telltale paint on door hinges says someone did a sloppy job.
To restore hinges, try these techniques:
- Wash with sudsy hot water.
- Scrub with a nylon brush or a toothbrush. A wire brush could damage the finish.
- Brush on paint stripper that is safe for all surfaces.
- Polish with beeswax furniture polish or brass polish.
