The Victorian Door Knob on Latch Backplate by B&Q is an ideal choice for homeowners looking to add a touch of timeless, traditional aesthetic to their interior doors without sacrificing contemporary durability. Designed for high-traffic environments, this silver-finished hardware provides a resilient and corrosion-resistant solution that is built to last; however, potential buyers should note that the necessary tubular latch for the door mechanism is not included in the purchase and must be acquired separately.

No, the tubular latch is sold separately and must be compatible with standard Victorian knob spindle sizes.
The product includes a 10-year mechanical guarantee based on 100,000 operational cycles.
This product is designed for solid doors with a thickness between 30mm and 45mm.
This specific version is for latch-only operation. For bathroom privacy, consider the Victorian Thumb Lock Bathroom Door Knob variant.
The backplate length is 152mm and the width is 42mm.
Yes, the product is built with corrosion-resistant materials suitable for standard indoor environments.
Check that the spindle bar is centered correctly and that all fixing screws are tightened firmly into the door material.
Ensure the tubular latch (sold separately) is aligned perfectly with the spindle bar; misalignment often prevents smooth rotation.
Installation is designed to be user-friendly; ensure your door is solid and falls within the 30-45mm thickness range. You will need a screwdriver and a drill for the pilot holes. To install, align the backplates on either side of the door, insert the spindle bar through the (separately purchased) tubular latch, and secure with the provided screws. Regarding care, the silver finish is low-maintenance. Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to wipe away fingerprints or dust regularly. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive scouring pads, as these can strip the finish and expose the underlying material to potential corrosion.
