Full details

FAQs

Can these knobs be used on exterior doors?

While durable, these are primarily designed for interior use. Using them outdoors may result in faster oxidation of the bronze finish.

Do these knobs come with a locking mechanism?

The knobs themselves are simply handles. The locking functionality depends on the mortice latch or rim lock you choose to pair them with.

What is the diameter of the rose?

The knob and rose diameter is 50mm.

Are these suitable for fire doors?

Please check your local fire safety regulations; generally, fire doors require specific certified hardware that may differ from decorative brass sets.

Do I need to purchase a separate spindle?

No, the set is supplied as a pair and includes all necessary fixings and components for a standard installation.

How far do the knobs protrude from the door?

These knobs have a 62mm protrusion from the surface of the door.

Troubleshooting

Knob feels loose or wobbly after installation

Tighten the grub screws securely and ensure the spindle is correctly aligned within the knob set.

Knob does not return to the neutral position

The design is unsprung; verify that your mortice latch or rim lock has a sufficiently strong internal spring to facilitate the return action.

Difficulty turning the knob

Check that the door is correctly aligned in the frame and ensure the spindle is not over-tightened against the lock mechanism.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Authentic period-appropriate aesthetic
  • High-quality solid brass construction
  • Suitable for both mortice and rim lock setups
  • All essential fixings included for easy installation

Cons

  • Unsprung design may require a high-tension latch
  • Bronze finish requires occasional light cleaning to maintain luster
  • Not suitable for doors where self-closing spring force is minimal

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For installation, ensure you have a standard screwdriver and measuring tape. As an unsprung knob, check that your chosen latch or lock is designed to support the weight of heavy brass furniture. If installing on an existing door, confirm that the 50mm rose covers any previous markings or wear. To maintain the bronze finish, wipe periodically with a soft, lint-free cloth dampened with mild soapy water and buff dry. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or abrasive sponges, as these can strip the protective finish and lead to oxidation.
