How do I Remove a Door Backset with a Round Small Faceplate?

Question

I Have a Doorknob to remove. The Backset has a small round faceplate without screws. How do I get it out?

Answer 1

It should have a small hole between the k**b and door, on the inside of the k**b. It may be in the underside. Use a pointed object to push in then twist the k**b counterclockwise.

Answer 2

Just take something and pry it out from the large hole side.  It's just a tight fit.

Answer 3

You don't say what age it is. Some modern ones have a pushfit rose that pings off to reveal the screws. Try levelering gently round the edge.
