FAQs
Does this door knocker come with screws?
Yes, it is supplied with two bolts and nuts that go through the door.
Can I install this on a hollow core door?
It is recommended to install this on a solid wood door as the weight and bolting system require a sturdy substrate.
What is the total size of the knocker?
The dimensions are 160mm high, 120mm wide, and it has an 80mm projection from the door.
Will the finish fade over time?
The brass is unlacquered, meaning it will oxidize and develop a patina. This is a deliberate design choice that adds character to the piece.
Where is this product made?
It is made in the United Kingdom using traditional Victorian sand-casting methods.
What is the maximum door thickness compatible with this product?
It is suitable for doors up to 6cm thick.
Troubleshooting
The knocker feels loose after installation
Check the nuts on the interior side of the door and tighten them securely with a wrench, ensuring they are flush against the wood.
The brass is turning brown or dull
This is a natural process for unlacquered brass. Use a standard brass cleaner or polish and a soft microfiber cloth to restore the shine.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-quality solid brass material
- Hand-polished finish

Cons
- Unlacquered finish requires regular maintenance to prevent tarnishing
- Requires drilling holes through the door for installation

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires a drill and a steady hand to ensure the two bolts align perfectly. The distance between fixing points is 108mm (4 1/4 inches). Ensure your door is no thicker than 6cm to accommodate the provided bolts. To care for your knocker, use a high-quality brass polish if you wish to remove oxidation and restore the original sheen. If you prefer the aged appearance, simply wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid using abrasive sponges, as these may scratch the polished surface.
