How To Install Door Hardware?

2025-09-18

Installing Door Hardware is an essential step in ensuring both the functionality and security of a door. At Glowing Hardware, we specialize in providing high-quality door hardware solutions, including handles, locks, hinges, and accessories. Our products are designed for durability, easy installation, and wide application in residential, commercial, and industrial environments. Below is a professional, step-by-step guide to installing door hardware that fits our product range.


1. Prepare the Tools and Materials

Before installation, make sure you have the necessary tools ready:

  • Screwdriver or drill

  • Screws (usually included with our hardware sets)

  • Measuring tape and pencil

  • Chisel (if adjustments are needed)

  • Door hardware kit from Glowing Hardware

Our hardware is designed with precise engineering, which reduces the need for complex tools, making installation easier for both professionals and DIY users.


2. Mark the Placement

Use a measuring tape to determine the correct placement of handles, locks, and hinges:

  • Handles and locks are typically installed 36 inches (about 91 cm) from the floor.

  • Hinges should be aligned with the top, middle, and bottom sections of the door frame.

Our modern design hardware ensures a universal fit for most standard doors, reducing the need for adjustments.


3. Install the Hinges

  1. Position the hinges on the door edge and mark screw holes.

  2. Pre-drill small holes to avoid splitting.

  3. Screw the hinges into place using the provided hardware.

The single-tube electroplated finishes on our products ensure corrosion resistance, providing a longer service life even in high-use environments.


4. Fit the door handle and Lockset

  1. Insert the latch into the pre-drilled hole on the door edge.

  2. Secure it with screws using a screwdriver or drill.

  3. Attach the exterior and interior handles, ensuring the spindle passes through the latch mechanism.

  4. Tighten the screws evenly to secure both sides.

Our precision-engineered locks and handles feature smooth operation, ensuring both safety and user comfort.


5. Install the Strike Plate

  1. Close the door to mark where the latch meets the frame.

  2. Position the strike plate and mark screw holes.

  3. Use a chisel if necessary to recess the strike plate.

  4. Secure it with screws.

Our ISO-certified hardware includes strong strike plates designed to withstand repeated use, making them ideal for both homes and commercial facilities.


6. Test the Door Function

Once installation is complete:

  • Open and close the door several times.

  • Test the locking mechanism.

  • Ensure the handle moves smoothly without resistance.

Thanks to the high-density materials and precision design of our hardware, the installed product provides stable, reliable performance.
