This Thorness Door Push Plate in Gold is designed for homeowners and property managers seeking to add vintage charm and functional elegance to doors, particularly in period properties. Its key benefit is enhancing door aesthetics while protecting against daily wear. A potential caveat is that its ornate design may not suit ultra-modern decor. This solid, polished brass finger plate features an old-style finish, measuring 20cm x 8cm x 1cm, and showcases a cherub with intricate filigree. Pre-drilled holes are cleverly hidden for a seamless installation, making it ideal for enhancing character and providing a protective layer to doors.

The Thorness Door Push Plate is constructed from solid cast iron with a polished brass finish.
The finger plate measures approximately 20cm (length) x 8cm (width) x 1cm (thickness).
Yes, it is supplied with matching fixing screws for installation.
The plate features pre-drilled holes hidden within the design, allowing it to be screwed directly onto the door surface.
While it can be fitted to any door, its antique, ornate design is best suited for period properties, traditional homes, or establishments aiming for a vintage aesthetic.
Gently dust with a soft, dry cloth. For cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Avoid abrasive cleaners. A mild brass polish can be used sparingly if needed.
Yes, it can be used on exterior doors, but regular maintenance of the brass finish will be more important due to exposure to the elements.
Ensure the door surface is flat and free from debris. Check that the screws are not over-tightened, which can cause the plate to warp. If the door has deep grain, consider using a thin gasket behind the plate (not supplied).
Ensure you are using the correct size screwdriver. If the pre-drilled holes feel tight, a small amount of wax or soap can help the screw glide in. Do not force screws; if they continue to strip, consider a slightly larger diameter screw of the same length (not supplied).
This is natural for polished brass over time. Clean with a soft cloth and a dedicated brass polish, following the polish manufacturer's instructions. Regular dusting can help slow this process.
Setup:
Compatibility:
This finger plate is designed for use on most standard interior and exterior doors. It is particularly well-suited for wooden doors where its antique aesthetic will be most impactful. Ensure the door material can support the weight of the cast iron plate.
Care:
To maintain the polished brass finish, regularly dust with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth and wipe dry immediately. Avoid abrasive cleaners or polishing compounds that could damage the finish or intricate detailing. For stubborn marks, a mild, non-abrasive brass cleaner can be used sparingly, following the product instructions carefully.
