Description: ANTIQUE DOOR KNOCKER An unusually large and fine antique brass lion's head door knocker with a strike plate. Of good proportions and weighing 2kg, this exceptional knocker is sure to make a statement upon the door of a period property. It is beautifully finished and it comes with new fixing bolts (plenty of length for the thickest of doors!) and nuts for installation. The flowing mane of the lion mask is particularly nice. Date: 19th Century Victorian Condition. Very good functional condition and ready for installation. The knocker has been fully refurbished and refinished including professional polishing to the high spots of the mask, carefully leaving tarnish in the background to highlight the design. The fixing bolts (including the whole strike plate) are new replacements. Installation guidance: the fittings have a casting boss where the bolts thread into them, which protrudes behind the edge surface - consequently larger shallow holes will need to be drilled part way into the door to accommodate these bosses (using a spade bit of approx 21mm before drilling right through with a 7mm bit for the bolts). The bolts will need to be cut down to suit, or ground off after installation. If in doubt please consult a professional handyperson.
