The outside Georgian Knob doesn't come with any screw or pin to be attached firmly. Does anyone have the same issue and how did you solve it? Thanks!

I had the same problem. The outside knob would not snap into place. I used a screwdriver, trying to make the tab connect. I even tried to put a little set screw in the hole. Finally, I pounded the knob with a rubber mallet and it worked. Note: I tried the mallet at first with no success. I believe, using the screwdriver, I managed to "tweek" the tab so it caught hold when hit with the mallet. Other than this issue, the product was super simple to install and program. I am a 62 year old grandma and I did it myself.

There is a pin on the shaft, but if you have the knobs switched, the one on the outside does not reach the hole in the knob. If you look at the two knobs, you'll see that one has a longer shaft than the other. The one with the longer shaft must go on the outside. The pin is on the right side of the lock shaft and fits into a hole on the knob shaft.

Both sides attach the same way with a spring tab. The handles are different lengths. The shorter one will only engage the tab on one side.

Provide Name, did you ever get yours working? I can't get either the long knob or the short knob to "click" onto the outside. There's a small kind of "facing cover" that's in the way, and the short knob won't fit either side.

It should snap into place. Mine did. To remove the knob again a small straight edge screwdriver is used to push in tab.

I do not have that problem. Could it have so sort of packing stuff in it? My knob was packed very secure.

In my case, the small screw stud that was originally attached (welded?) to the lid was still intact. I simply screwed the replacement knob onto this screw. On the original knob, the screw threads inside of the knob were worn out. If your lid doesn't have the stud, a small hole will have to be drilled and a screw inserted from the inside of the lid for the knob to attach to. I don't remember if any screws came with the knobs I ordered.

You could try holding the other side down with you finger(the side with out the screw indent) while you screw it in with your other hand. Other than that you might have busted the screw

It's very easy to switch out the handle. I actually put zebra knobs on mine because I have a zebra room. Any round 1 screw knob should work. Hope this helps

Hi Steve,I bought it and fixed it with the help of a mechanic. Not sure if he used the same screws or used from his collection. I apologize that I couldn't help you with.Manoje

Turn the knob around once or twice and end turning with the knob horizontal. It should feel like it snaps in place. Push the sliding button down a couple of times. Then enter code and turn main knob to the right. Hope that helps.

I contacted Lodge via their website and a Lodge representative wrote back: "The screws need to be tightened with a pair of pliers, and a screw driver. Hand tightening (which most people do) is not enough to secure it fully. Occasionally the wrong set of screws will be put in the pack ...let us know and we send new ones".

Hi Amy, If you contact the seller they will mail you the replacement screws. I had the same issue, best of luck.

Is the knob slipping or clicking when you try to turn it? If so, you're simply turning it the wrong direction. It shouldn't be over tightened due to its design.

Are you sure the correct selection of knobs are for the purpose you want. If not, I would say there is a defect.

Yes, there is a hole drilled for the knob and we didn't like the knob that came with it, so we replaced it with something different.

Sometimes the tenshion knob gets so tight that you have to have pliers to loosen knob. Unless the knob was cross threaded when installed

I had to buy a screw at the hardwear store. Then I drilled a hole in the center of the lid to fit the screw,and the screwed the knob on. (old know was somehow stamped on).

I would try contacting the company. When the knob kept falling off of the turning handle, they sent me a whole new part, though it did take me several tries before they responded.

It is finding the right position on the on the knob and latch part . It took me a few tries but I got it. We are very happy with it. Not sure but maybe there might be a youtube video on them or a similar one that you can watch....Donna
