Sturdy Features of Emtek Door Knobs that You Must Know
Going into the fixer upper business in the residential housing market may have been contrarian in today’s market. After all, there is a slump in housing sales and this contraction in the market may last for awhile. But if you think about it, if you have the spare cash, there is no better place to invest in real estate and land. After all, they don’t make land anymore.
The other challenging thing about this type of business is that you are able to recreate or refurbish a house and if you do like doing some manual labor, this is quite a refreshing and challenging activity. Being in the financial sector for most of my life, there is a tendency to be sedentary and immobile when most of the time you are looking at numbers and figures, and the anticipation of whether stock prices go up or down often times gives you unwanted stress and ulcers. With the refurbishing business, you are able to plan, redecorate, or rebuild at a pace you set. Sure, the work may be strenuous to your body with all the lifting, pounding and perhaps even wrecking, but to me, this is therapy and sometime that I needed for some time now.
One of the first things I always change in refurbishing a house is the door knobs. Some of the houses that I have refurbished had poor main door knobs and to me, it had an effect on the whole feel of the house. You would want a door knob to have this sturdy and solid feeling at the main entrance. Having this, I felt, exuded a sense of confidence to the seller of the house that indeed some investment was made in this. To this day, Emtek door knobs are probably the best value for money door knobs there is. The materials they use are impeccable. In an emtek door, their handles and rosettes are forged and not stamped or cast. You can feel it by the weight and thickness of the knob. Furthermore, because the emtek door knobs are forged, they can be polished to almost a mirror like finish. This finish puts an impression on any buyer. The other thing that impressed me about it is their engineering: their knobs and levers are supported by springs mounted behind the side plates and rosettes which prevent lever sag; their handles are positively connected to rosettes with a permanent clip; the emtek door knob or handle has a set screw which eliminates handle wobble when tightened; the threaded tubes inside its lock are made of brass not steel which prevent corrosion.
