An expensive look for hardware comes with a price tag why do you think it will have an effect when you go to sell. Is the rest of the house high end or just average.

Yes, all our upgrades have been higher end, i.e., higher end appliances, stunning countertops, upgraded floors. Just trying to determine the best resources for purchases as we continue to upgrade and update.

You’re not getting 39K more for a house just because you spend that on door hardware.

It would be nice if all the door hardware matched, though, no?

There is zero compelling reason to make fashion out of infrastructure. Other than you have money to burn that will give you pleasure to burn it.

Adding expensive details to a medium level home adds nothing to the neighborhood that the home is located in.That location and square footage sets your sellers price. You cannot upgrade a home into a different category than the neighborhood as a whole.

Thank you @lisa. Build.com is a great solution I'd forgotten about!

Just one opinion here: I would 1000x rather have a house full of mismatched knobs that work sooo smoothly than matching knobs that grind or stick. The thing I hate absolutely the most about beautiful homes is when the owner cheaped out on the doors and hardware. It completely ruins the experience for me.

If the knobs are crappy and mismatched or if they are worn down to bare base metal then change. If you're planning to replace perfectly good knobs just so they all match and if you're planning to go cheap with that purchase, please think twice.

Maybe instead you could rearrange them so all the knobs in each room or zone of the house match.

What price category is the house? What "budget" means is entirely different if the house is $350K or $1M. Is your budget $30 per door or $100 per door?
