FAQs

What is included in the box with the Frankfurt Linear Door Knob?

The set includes a pair of door knobs, a spindle, and fixing screws for installation. The mortice latch or lock is sold separately.

How do I clean and maintain the antique brass finish?

Wipe with a soft, dry cloth regularly. For cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid abrasive cleaners and harsh chemicals.

What type of doors can this knob be used on?

It is suitable for most internal and external doors that are prepared for mortice lock installations. Ensure compatibility with the chosen latch or lock.

Does this knob come with a latch?

No, the mortice latch or lock mechanism is sold separately. You will need to purchase a suitable latch to complete the installation.

What is the warranty period for this door knob?

The Frankfurt Linear Mortice Door Knob comes with a 10-year mechanical guarantee, covering manufacturing defects in the mechanism.

Is the antique brass finish prone to tarnishing?

The antique brass finish is designed to be durable and develop a natural patina over time, enhancing its antique look. It is not typically prone to the heavy tarnishing seen on highly polished brass, but gentle care is recommended to maintain its appearance.

Can I use this knob on a bathroom door?

Yes, you can use it on a bathroom door, provided you pair it with an appropriate bathroom mortice lock that includes a privacy turn mechanism.

Troubleshooting

Knob feels stiff or difficult to turn.

Check that the spindle is correctly aligned and that the fixing screws are not overtightened, which could bind the mechanism. Ensure the mortice lock itself is functioning correctly.

Knob is loose or wobbly.

Tighten the fixing screws that secure the knob to the door. Ensure these screws are firmly seated against the rose or internal mechanism.

Antique brass finish appears dull or discolored.

Gently wipe the surface with a soft, dry cloth. If needed, use a slightly damp cloth and immediately dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Knob does not return to the centered position.

This usually indicates an issue with the internal spring mechanism of the mortice lock, rather than the knob itself. Inspect or replace the mortice lock.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This door knob set is designed for easy installation. It is supplied as a complete pair with the necessary spindle and fixing screws. To install, you will typically need a screwdriver. Follow the included instructions to attach the knob to your door. Remember that the corresponding door latch mechanism is sold separately and needs to be chosen based on your specific door requirements (e.g., standard latch, bathroom lock, or deadbolt).

Compatibility: This mortice door knob is designed to be fitted onto standard mortice locks, which are common in many doors. Ensure your existing door preparation is compatible with a mortice knob fitting. It is suitable for use on a variety of internal and external doors, provided the correct latch or lock is used.

Care: To maintain the beauty of the antique brass finish, we recommend regular cleaning with a soft, dry cloth. For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth and then dry immediately. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or metal polishes, as these can damage the finish. The durable nature of the finish means it is designed to last, but gentle care will preserve its appearance.
