Sliding Glass Door Hardware-How We Updated Our Style for Under $23

I was so tired of seeing our worn out sliding glass door hardware. Last weekend I decided to dedicate a little bit of time and money to this project.

Our interior doors have oil rubbed bronze handles and hinges. And I wanted the sliding glass door handle to match. We could have bought a handle but I wanted to save a few bucks (more than a few bucks as it turns out!).

This is a really nice weekend project you can tackle. For more info on how to do it and some cool before & after pics click on this hyperlink http://www.homerepairtutor.com/sliding-glass-door-hardware/

    Very nice idea. How does the paint hold up over time?

    I'll have to let you know about how the paint holds up. I just did the project a few weeks ago :). But I've always had a great experience with Rust Oleum products.

    Great idea! Will use this tip to update the old brass fixtures when on a budget. Thanks for sharing.

    I would like to add that this is a great solution for brass in rough shape, but if you have good quality brass and think that it's outdated, you might be glad to know that brass is on its way back. It's a classic finish and there's always a place for great quality brass, especially in a traditional or historic house.
