FAQs
What material is the escutcheon made from?
The escutcheon is made from solid brass.
What are the dimensions of the escutcheon?
It has a length of 55mm and a width of 28mm at its widest point.
What style of door knobs does this escutcheon complement?
It is designed to complement SPIRA BRASS 'Beehive' and 'Bloxwich' door knobs, and features a classic oval beehive design.
How should I clean the gold finish?
Use a soft, damp cloth for regular cleaning. For deeper cleaning, use a specialist brass cleaner and avoid abrasive materials.
Is this suitable for modern interior designs?
The reeded pattern and oval beehive design lend themselves best to traditional or classic interior styles. It may not be the ideal choice for minimalist or ultra-modern aesthetics.
Can I use this escutcheon with any door knob?
It is specifically recommended for SPIRA BRASS 'Beehive' and 'Bloxwich' door knobs. Compatibility with other brands will depend on matching the spindle and overall dimensions.
Troubleshooting
Escutcheon does not align with door knob spindle.
Verify that the door knob set is designed to work with an escutcheon of this size and pattern. Ensure correct placement during installation.
Gold finish appears dull or tarnished.
Gently clean the escutcheon with a soft cloth and a mild, specialized brass cleaner. Avoid rubbing too vigorously.
Screws do not tighten securely.
Check that the screw holes in the door are in good condition. If the holes are stripped, consider using slightly longer screws or wood filler for a secure fit.
