Questions to ask when buying door knobs
What are internal door knobs used for?
Internal door knobs are typically used on doors throughout the home, including bedrooms, living rooms, hallways and other interior spaces. Depending on the product type, they can be used with tubular latches, mortice locks or rim locks, so it is important to match the knob to the correct latch or lock type.
What is the difference between mortice door knobs and rim lock door knobs?
Mortice door knobs are designed to work with hardware fitted into the edge of the door, such as a tubular latch or mortice lock. Rim lock door knobs are designed for use with surface-mounted rim locks and latches, which are commonly used on more traditional doors. This difference matters because the fixing and mechanism setup are not the same.
Do you sell door knobs on rose and on backplate?
Yes. The category page specifically includes door knobs on backplate, and the range also covers rose-based formats within the wider internal door knob offer. This gives customers a choice between a cleaner, more minimal look and a more traditional plated design.
Do you sell front door knobs as well as internal door knobs?
Yes. As well as internal door knobs, the category includes centre door knobs and uPVC door knobs, which are relevant for entrance door applications. Centre door knobs are commonly chosen as fixed pulls for front doors, while decorative uPVC centre knobs suit modern entrance doors.
What finishes are available in your door knob collection?
The finish filters on the category include polished brass, unlacquered brass, antique darkened brass, satin brass, polished chrome, satin chrome, polished nickel, satin nickel, satin stainless steel, matt black, black antique style, black smooth iron, pewter style, imitation bronze, glass and crystal, porcelain, plastic and wood. This makes it easier to match your door knobs to other door furniture throughout the property.
Do you sell traditional as well as modern door knobs?
Yes. The category includes sub-categories such as Victorian door knobs, vintage antique door knobs, beehive door knobs and more contemporary finish-led collections like matt black, satin brass and polished chrome. That gives the range strong coverage across both heritage and modern interior styles.
Are door knobs sold in different materials as well as finishes?
Yes. Based on the category filters and visible product groupings, the range includes brass, iron-style finishes, nickel, chrome, stainless steel, glass and crystal, porcelain, plastic and wood, giving customers both decorative and practical options depending on the room and look they want to achieve.
How do I choose the right door knobs for interior doors?
Start by choosing the correct type for your lock or latch setup, such as mortice, rim or knobset. Then select a finish and style that works with the rest of your interior hardware, whether that is brass, chrome, black, nickel, porcelain, glass or wood. Looking at the overall room style and matching hinges, latches and locks will help create a more consistent result.
Can I match your door knobs with other ironmongery?
Yes. Because the range covers a wide spread of popular finishes, it is well suited to coordinating with matching hinges, latches, locks and other door furniture. This is especially helpful when you want a consistent finish across all your internal doors.
