Setup:
Installation requires a bolt-through fixing method. This involves drilling a hole through your door to accommodate the supplied 110mm stainless steel threaded bolts.
- Determine the desired position for the door knocker.

- Drill a hole through the door for the bolts. Ensure the drill bit size is appropriate for the bolts.
- Insert the bolts from the inside, passing them through the door.

- Tighten the bolts securely. The internal fitting has a dome head cap for a neat finish.
Care:
To maintain the appearance and longevity of your door knocker:
- Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.
- For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution with the damp cloth, then wipe dry.
- Periodically check the tightness of the fixing bolts.
