A changeable pin offers an elegant solution here. It consists of two parts: a threaded part that mounts on the outside of the door and a part that resembles a handle pin and mounts on the inside of the door. The threaded portion can be used to attach a fixed doorknob or other decorative finish to the outside of the door, while the handle pin portion is used to mount the single-sided door handle on the inside.
