I replaced all doorknobs a couple of years ago. Be sure you can get the same ones in the future. I wanted exterior as well as interior so the locking mechanism mattered to me. Not being able to lock ourselves out, ie being unable to open a locked door counted for us. Consider the strength of the bolt- there are different classes. Schlage and Kwikset are two major companies with reliable pieces. Locally my available stores were Lowes and Home Depot but then I got better prices on Amazon. All sorts of finishes and styles are available. Read up on features for these two companies and any others to optimize what is important to you. So much easier now with internet info than back when we built a house.
