This guide is for homeowners and renovators seeking to add a touch of classic elegance to their doors. The Spira Brass Georgian Mortice Door Knob in Aged Bronze offers a heavy-duty, solid brass construction with a distinctive etched design, providing a luxurious and durable finishing touch. A potential caveat is its mortice fitting, which requires a specific door preparation.

These are mortice knobs, meaning they are designed to be used with a mortice lock that is installed within a cavity in the door. A spindle bar passes through the lock to connect the two knobs.
While made of solid brass, the aged bronze finish is primarily intended for interior use. Prolonged exposure to weather may affect the finish over time.
Each pair includes two mortice knobs, two rose plates, a square spindle bar, and all necessary fixing screws for installation.
No, these knobs are specifically designed for use with mortice locks that feature a square spindle hole. They are not compatible with standard tubular latches that typically use a round spindle.
Please refer to the retailer or manufacturer's documentation for specific warranty details, as this information is not provided in the product description.
The spindle is typically a standard size (often 8mm square) designed to fit common mortice locks. The included spindle should be compatible with most standard UK mortice lock backsets.
It is not recommended to polish out the etched design, as this would alter the intended aesthetic of the knob and could damage the finish.
Ensure the spindle bar is correctly aligned and not binding within the lock mechanism. Check that the mortice lock itself is functioning freely. Verify that the rose plates are not overtightened against the door, causing friction.
Tighten the screws securing the rose plates to the door. If the spindle feels loose within the knob, ensure the grub screws (if present) or internal fixings are secured.
Gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth. If necessary, use a very slightly damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh chemicals. Some subtle changes in the aged bronze finish over time are normal and contribute to its character.
Setup: These door knobs require a mortice lock to be installed within the door. The set includes a square spindle bar that passes through the lock mechanism, connecting the two knobs. Fixings for the rose plates are also provided. Ensure the door is prepared with the correct cut-outs for both the mortice lock and the spindle.
Compatibility: Compatible with most standard mortice locks requiring a 5mm or 8mm spindle. Suitable for doors up to a standard thickness (typically 35-54mm).
Care: To maintain the aged bronze finish, wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or polishes, as these can damage the finish. For stubborn marks, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Periodically check that fixings remain tight.
