Thanks a million man... I was smashing my head against the wall trying to figure out how to get these door knobs off... bought an old house built in the early 80s and the previous owners never updated anything!!!!

......why put new crappy stuff on . No updating for me ! I'm renovating my old farmhouse . We saved the doors and knobs . They are quality , not junk li,e they make today . Sargent 6 line locking knobs are very difficult to pick . They don't wear out like junky new ones . My inside has them and the old " real " doors . It would take criminals a long time to break into my outer doors and the locking indoors type , is nigh invincible ! I'll take old thing over new any day......solid construction with real oak !

That is really nice, I wish all knobs were made like this. The non visible screws are a nice touch.

Without your video, I would have given up because the plate only partially came off, and of course there were no visible screws! I kept trying and found them. In the end I got two of those ancient, worn-out doorknobs replaced tonight. Thank you for the advice and encouragement!

They are Quality. Mine are from 1940 and they all work perfectly . New stuff is junk , that can get picked easily . Not the old Sargent line 6 knobs . Wife said save doors during renovating my old farmhouse . Carpenter wanted to do all preying doors , made of wood particles , and not real wood . Quality for my family . 3 Carpenter have quit , excuse they don't know that new doesn't mean better !

My door knobs look very much like the one in your video. They are however, interior knobs and the knobs on both sides are the same in appearance. I don't have the tabs you show in your video and have no idea how to remove that knob in order to install the newer ones I bought recently. If you have any idea of how I can remove these knobs I'd appreciate any feedback you can send me.

Thank you for showing how you did this. I had to replace an old 70's door knob because evicted tenants broke the matching knobs. Mine had a button to get knob off, but the plate needed to be snapped off with a small pry bar.

I found the notch but pushing a screwdriver in there didn't make the knob pop off. It left a pretty big gash in the wood, though.
