Fab & Fix Heritage Bullring Heavy Duty Door Knocker

Fab & Fix Heritage Bullring Door Knocker – 127mm Ring, Face Fix, Solid Zinc

Fab & Fix Heritage Bullring door knocker with 127mm ring – face-fixes to uPVC, composite and timber doors with no through-drilling. Strike plate included.

The Fab & Fix Heritage Bullring Door Knocker is a traditional ring-style door knocker for uPVC, composite and timber front doors. Its patented face-fixing faceplate mounts to the surface of the door, so there is no need to drill through the door to fit it. Made from solid zinc, it is an ideal replacement for a tired or corroded knocker, or a simple upgrade for a door that has never had one.

The Heritage Bullring meets BS EN 1670:2007 Grade 5 corrosion resistance (480 hours) – the highest grade in the standard – and suites with the Fab & Fix matching hardware range.

Key Benefits for uPVC, Composite & Timber Door Owners:

• No Through-Drilling Required – The patented face-fixing faceplate attaches to the door surface, so you avoid drilling right through the door. Ideal for composite and uPVC doors, where through-drilling can compromise the door's integrity.
• Strike Plate Included – A strike plate is supplied in the pack, so there is nothing extra to source. It sits where the ring lands and protects the door face from marks each time the knocker is used.
• Grade 5 Corrosion Resistance – Tested to BS EN 1670:2007 Grade 5 (480 hours), so the finish is built to cope with harsh outdoor exposure, including coastal and high-pollution locations, rather than pitting or peeling after a couple of winters.
• Solid Zinc Construction – Solid zinc gives the knocker real weight and strength compared with hollow or pot metal alternatives, and delivers a satisfying, clearly audible knock.
• One Knocker for Three Door Types – Suitable for uPVC, composite and timber doors, taking the guesswork out of finding a knocker that suits your door material.
• Heritage Bull Ring Design – The classic circular ring gives a front door a traditional, elegant look that suits period properties and modern homes wanting a heritage finish.
• Matches Fab & Fix Door Furniture – Suites with the Fab & Fix matching hardware range, so handles, letterplate and knocker can share the same finish for a coordinated entrance.
• Low Maintenance – Simple routine cleaning is all it takes to keep the knocker looking and working as it should, with no specialist products needed.

Pro Tips:

Pro Tip: If you live within 25 miles of the coast or near an industrial area, increase cleaning frequency to prevent corrosive contaminants from building up on the finish. Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner with a soft cloth and apply a light lubricant to the ring pivot point at least twice a year to keep the knocker operating smoothly.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Does this door knocker come with a strike plate?
Yes. A strike plate is included in the pack with the knocker and the face-fixing faceplate, so there is no need to buy one separately.

Do I need to drill through my uPVC or composite door to fit this knocker?
No. The Fab & Fix Heritage Bullring fixes to the face of the door using its patented faceplate, so only short fixings into the door surface are required. The knocker then mounts onto the faceplate.

What screws do I need to fit this door knocker?
Screws are not included, as the right fixing depends on your door. For timber doors, wood screws of a suitable gauge are appropriate. For uPVC and composite doors, you'll need self-tapping screws suited to the thickness of the door's outer skin. Your local hardware or DIY retailer will be able to advise based on your door type.

What does BS EN 1670:2007 Grade 5 mean?
BS EN 1670 is the British and European standard for corrosion resistance of building hardware. Grade 5 is the highest grade and requires the product to withstand 480 hours of salt spray testing.

Will this knocker match my existing Fab & Fix door furniture?
Yes, provided you choose the same finish. The Heritage Bullring is part of the Fab & Fix matching hardware range, so it will coordinate with Fab & Fix handles, letterplates and numerals in that finish.
