Activate your Shapes Preset tool. Choose Button 030. You can leave this as a single door knob, or... Copy and paste the knob as a new layer. |

Add a new layer and choose Button 010.
After you have applied it, rotate it Right 90 degrees.
The other way to resize or rotate one of the Shapes Presets is to create
it as a Vector. The resizing works great this way!
You may find this easier to do than using the Deform tool, but I have problems rotating this way.
If you do too, Convert to a Raster layer then use the Rotate under Images.

Button 010 was used to make the knob and handle in fig.1. Button 012 was used to make the knob and handle in fig.2. Button 056 was used to make the knob and handle in fig.3. Button 057 was used to make the handle in fig.4. The first 3 figures are very straight-forward to make. The only things I did that you need to know is that I Colorized fig.1 and fig.3: Hue 33/Saturation 210. I also deformed all the handles by clicking on the deform tool and squeezing them in to make them more narrow. You can also resize them by creating the Shape as a Vector. The handles get a Drop Shadow to the right horizontally. The knobs get a Drop Shadow vertically to the bottom and horizontally to the right. Since fig. 4 is a little more complex, I'll take you through all those steps.
Use Button 057. Draw is as a circle when you use it.
Then Colorize with these settings.
Effects/3D/Inner Bevel. Use the Metallic Preset.
Copy and paste your circular button as a new layer.
Add a new layer. Use Button 057 again and draw it as a
vertical button.
Rotate the button to the Right 90 degrees.
Use the Deform tool to make it more narrow, or create the Shape as a Vector and resize.
Make sure the handle layer is on top.
Add a new layer, move it to the top and use Button 057 again.
Make is circular and smaller than the first set of circles.
Effects/3D/Inner Bevel. Use the Metallic Preset again.
Copy and paste as a new layer. Move it to the bottom circle.
Your handle layer is between the larger circles and the smaller ones.
For the third door, I first used Button 019 on a new layer. I applied the Inner Bevel Metallic Preset. Then I added a new layer, moved it to the top and used Button 010, the green button. Finally, I added a new layer, moved it to the top and used Button 012.
