Perhaps the best place to look for great deals for door knobs are stores that offer them at wholesale prices. Discount door knobs can come in many shapes and forms. Some of the more inexpensive door knobs can start at less than 20 dollars. The range of prices can go up to the hundreds of dollars. There are several types available. One is the keyed outside, thumb turned or push button inside category. Another category similar to the first one is the thumb turn or push button inside but can be unlocked from outside with a small tool. This category is especially good for children's and teenager's rooms wherein someone from the outside can open the door in cases of emergencies. Then there is the passage door knob wherein both knobs are always unlocked and finally there is the dummy one which has no latches or strikes.
While the internet has made it possible for nearly everyone to find information and perhaps purchase items like door knobs online, there is to some effect a tradition of men and hardware stores. When I was a child, I would go with my dad to the neighborhood hardware store wherein he would spend hours and at times he would be looking at items to purchase for his makeshift work place which was the garage. But mostly, he went to the hardware store to chat with Harry, the owner and perhaps the most knowledgeable hardware man I had ever known. Harry was an old school type of hardware person who knew about the intricacies of fixing stuff. He always gave us the best deals and even gave us great discounts for door knobs. I think my Dad like to talk to Harry about shop work because it reminded him about his times with my Dad's grandfather, who was a master cabinet maker. I remember that my grandfather gave my parents a dining table for their wedding which was good for 8 people and the table top was made from a single piece of hardwood. Naturally finished in oil, to this day, that dining table still remains at my parent's house where it has gathered through the years, a sense of character in its sheen.
These days when looking for discount door knobs, I do browse the internet shopping for prices but I still end up going to the hardware store with my son to buy the piece. I guess I do have a bit of that old school mentality.
Getting a quality door knob is very important because it not only adds up to a great feel of your house, it can also serve as a great investment.
