If you are looking for something small to change that will replace something old without breaking the bank, I recommend changing a doorknob or two. Old doorknobs can be rusty and old fashion. You can change all interior doors in the house either yourself or with a hired handyman. I like to choose an accent color- brass, black, chrome, satin nickel- and match all of the doorknobs to rooms and closets that share a hallway. I will choose a similar but simpler knob for closets and bathroom doors that are inside bedrooms. This is a great opportunity to add an accent metal and character in a small and relatively cheap way. You can choose a handle or a knob; I don't like handles because children tend to pull hard and hang on them. Below you can see the doorknobs I often recommend.
There are three types of knob options in almost every style, so be sure to purchase the right one for your door.
Privacy- doorknob with a pin or key lock-for bedrooms and bathrooms
Passage- doorknob that turns and latches without a lock-for closets
Dummy- knob pulls but doesn't turn or latch- for the semi stationary door on a set of double french doors
Black or brass and acrylic interior doorknob for hallway doors
Solid black or brass for inside bedroom doors
Brass and acrylic, tall base for tall door
Black exterior door- back door, garage door
