Default insulate doorknob

...

Has anyone ever insulated a doorknob to keep the cold air out? I was
thinking about removing it, filling the hole with foam then cut holes
for the screws and latch. Wondering what other's opinions are.


The steel rotating part will still conduct cold from one side
to another. We can reduce the apparent coldness of the
interior door handle by fitting a wood bezel and handle in
place of metal ones.
