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.
Fill a condom with "Great Stuff" spray foam. *Immediately stretch the
condom over your knob and let it swell. *Once it gets hard, you will
have a large well insulated knob.
Condoms are for loosers!
