Product Information
Full details
The Hiatt Hardware Mortice Sprung Knob in Silver is designed for homeowners looking to quickly update their interior doors with a modern, stylish touch. Its key benefit is the combination of contemporary aesthetics and durable construction, making door upgrades simple and effective. A minor consideration is that it is sold as a 2-pack, which may be more than needed for single-door applications.

FAQs
Is this product suitable for exterior doors?
No, this mortice sprung knob is designed for interior doors only and is not weather-resistant or intended for external use.
What type of lock does this knob work with?
This knob is designed to work with a mortice lock. You will need a mortice lock installed in your door for this knob to function.
Does this pack include the mortice lock itself?
No, this pack includes two mortice sprung knobs and their fixings. The mortice lock mechanism is sold separately.
How many doors can I fit with one pack?
One pack contains two knobs, which is typically sufficient for one standard door (one knob on each side).
Is the silver finish prone to tarnishing?
The chrome-plated finish is designed for durability and resistance to tarnishing. Regular cleaning with a soft cloth will help maintain its shine.
What is the return policy if I don't like the style?
Please refer to the retailer's specific return policy for details on returning products based on style preference.
Can I use these knobs with a bathroom lockset that requires privacy turning?
This specific model is a sprung knob, typically used with standard mortice locks. For privacy locks, you would need a mortice bathroom lockset with a thumbturn mechanism.
Troubleshooting
Knob feels stiff or doesn't return properly.
Ensure the knob spindles are correctly aligned and not binding within the lock mechanism. Check for any obstructions. The internal spring may require lubrication if it persists.
Screws won't tighten or feel loose.
Verify that the screws are the correct size for the mounting holes and that the mortice lock has adequate thread engagement. Ensure you are not overtightening, which can strip the screw threads.
Chrome finish appears dull or has spots.
Clean the knob with a soft, damp cloth and a mild detergent. Dry thoroughly immediately after cleaning to prevent water spots. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
