Vintage door hardware is notoriously hard to install.

In this full home remodel where the designer specified different antique hardware for almsot every door we ran into some hiccups:
- There were missing set screws. 
- Not all of the pegs were the right size for the knobs.
- Some knobs came without plates.
- Pocket door hardware had to be routed on site.

It’s not easy, but we love to do it because going into a room should feel like an occasion.
