How to change a door handle without changing the lock?

To change a door handle without changing the lock on an internal door, first, purchase a compatible handle set, available from most DIY stores, typically costing between £10 and £30. Start by unscrewing the existing handle and carefully removing it. Align the new handle with the existing holes on the door and secure it in place with screws. Ensure the spindle, the metal bar that connects the handles on both sides, fits snugly and allows for smooth operation. Test the new handle to ensure it functions correctly, making adjustments as needed. This process requires minimal tools, generally just a screwdriver, making it a simple and cost-effective update.
