Hartford Satin Nickel Entry KnobLever-style door handsets are identical to traditional doorknobs in mechanical design and function. When repairing or replacing a doorknob lever, you need to remove the faceplate -- also called a trim plate or rosette -- to gain access to the internal latch and mounting components. Removal procedures will vary slightly based on lever handle design and model, but all types can be successfully removed with basic household tools. Levers and faceplates are typically mounted with screws, spring-loaded mechanisms or a combination of both. First, you'll need to inspect the device and choose the correct tools. Inspect the lever and faceplate on both sides of the door and locate the single mounting screw on the lever shaft and two or more screws on the faceplate. Screw heads may be of the slotted (flat-head), cross-head (Phillips) or hexagonal (Allen) variety. If screws are not visible on the shaft, plate or both, refer to the next section. Remove the shaft screw by turning counterclockwise with a screwdriver or hex wrench.
Remove the lever by pulling outward from the shaft. Remove the faceplate screws by turning counterclockwise with a screwdriver or hex wrench. Remove the faceplate by grasping and pulling outward along the shaft. If the plate is difficult to remove by hand, insert a flat-head screwdriver under the edge of the plate plate where it meets the door surface, prying outward using gentle pressure. Repeat the procedure to remove the opposite lever and faceplate if desired. Inspect the lever shaft and locate the slot or hole. Some models may feature a hole or slot on the inside rim of the faceplate just below the shaft. Remove the lever by inserting an awl, nail or small screwdriver into the slot or hole, pushing inward while pulling the lever outward along the shaft with your hand. Note that some lever assemblies provide a special tool for this purpose. Inspect the faceplate at the edge where it meets the door surface and look for a narrow notch on one side of the base. Some models may not feature a notch but can still be pried off.
Insert a flat-head screwdriver putty knife or similar tool into the notch or under the faceplate edge, prying outward with gentle pressure. The plate will unsnap from the interior mounting ring and will remove by pulling outward along the lever shaft. Repeat the procedure for the opposite lever and faceplate if desired.
