Can I use a handleset on an interior door?

Asked 2 years ago
A handleset is primarily designed for exterior doors, offering both aesthetic appeal and heightened security. However, using a handleset on an interior door is certainly possible, though it may not always be practical. Interior doors typically require simpler hardware, such as knobs or levers, since they do not require the same level of security as exterior entrances. If you choose to install a handleset on an interior door, consider the style and function of the space. A handleset may add a unique decorative touch and complement the overall design of your home. Just ensure that the handleset you select is compatible with the door's thickness and that it allows for appropriate locking mechanisms for privacy, especially if the door leads to a bedroom or bathroom. Ultimately, it is important to evaluate the specific needs of your interior door. For more details on specific handlesets and their intended uses, you may refer to the information available on Handlesets.com.
