Our front door is pretty ugly. We've done so much to the house that now it's an eyesore.
Really.
We needed to re-key the lock, and MWH bought a kit to do so, but the kit had horrible instructions and he did part of it only to realize that if they had written better instructions he could have done a trick to make it an easy task, but they wrote AWFUL instructions and because of that, the re-keying turned into an impossible task. Replacing the door handle was the only option.
The door handle is kind of, um complex. We didn't really want to invest in another one like it. I told him it didn't matter to me if we ended up with an ugly solution.
My reasoning was, if we ended up with something really ugly we'd end up replacing the whole front door sooner because it would cause pain when we looked at it. MWH opted to go with a regular knob and cover the part of the hole in the door from the old handle with some sheets of metal. Yup. It's ugly!
Yup, I have pain when I look at it.
Yup, we have incentive to get a new door soon!
