FAQs

What material is the door knocker made from?

The door knocker is crafted from solid brass.

Are the mounting screws included?

No, screw fittings are not included with the door knocker and must be purchased separately.

Will the brass tarnish or change color?

Yes, brass naturally develops a patina over time, which can alter its color and deepen its character. This is a normal aging process for brass.

How do I clean the brass door knocker?

For general cleaning, use a soft, damp cloth. To restore shine, use a brass polish. For maintaining the patina, avoid polishing.

Is this door knocker suitable for all types of doors?

It is best suited for solid wooden or metal doors where secure mounting is possible. Avoid use on hollow doors.

Where is this door knocker made?

Each brass door knocker is handcrafted by skilled artisans in Indonesia.

Can I expect the size to be exact?

Due to the handcrafted nature, there may be slight variations in size.

Troubleshooting

Knocker is loose after installation.

Ensure that the screws are tightened securely into the door. If the pilot holes are too large, you may need to use larger screws or wood filler for a tighter fit.

Knocker does not make a sound.

Verify that the knocker arm is not obstructed by the door frame or other fixtures. Ensure the striker plate is positioned correctly.

Surface appears dull or discolored.

This is likely the natural patina developing. If a brighter finish is desired, clean with a suitable brass polish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Determine the desired mounting location on your door.
  2. Mark the screw hole positions.
  3. Drill pilot holes suitable for your chosen screws and door material.
  4. Align the door knocker and secure it firmly with appropriate screws (not included).

Compatibility:

This door knocker is suitable for most standard wooden or solid metal doors. Ensure the door is thick enough to support the mounting screws securely. It is not recommended for hollow doors where secure mounting might be compromised.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away dust and grime. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can damage the finish.
  • Patina Maintenance: To maintain a bright brass finish, use a commercial brass polish according to product instructions. To encourage or maintain a natural patina, simply allow the brass to age naturally or use specialized patina solutions.
