Over ten years ago I pretty much replaced all the doorknobs in our house as the old ones were corroded or scuzzy looking. Our house is over 50 years old and the hole in each door was sort of just a small half moon shape, or half circle shape, that the spindle went through and then there were the two small round holes for the screws to connect the two sides of the knob. Replacing them 10 years ago was easy. Now, recently I had to replace another one and I went to two different stores and it seems the standard now is the hole in the door is a large couple inch circle. Am I right that this is the new standard? Or does anyone know if I can still get the doorknobs that fit the smaller half- moon door hole?
