Pro Tips:

Pro Tip: Before installation, hold the knocker in position on your door and mark the fixing plate screw locations with a pencil. Choose screws appropriate for your specific door material - wood screws for composite doors, self-tapping screws for uPVC doors. Typical screw lengths are 15-20mm for solid composite or 20-25mm for reinforced uPVC, but confirm with your supplier based on your door construction. The screws should penetrate securely into the door surface but NOT go through to the interior - use a depth stop on your drill or mark your drill bit with tape to prevent over-drilling. For uPVC doors with reinforcement, ensure screws reach into the reinforcement section for maximum security. This knocker coordinates beautifully with other greenteQ Suite products, so consider matching your handle and letterbox finishes for a professionally coordinated entrance.

Please Note: Fixing screws are not included. You will require screws appropriate for your specific door material - wood screws for composite/timber doors, or self-tapping screws for uPVC doors (typically 3-4 screws depending on fixing plate design).

Frequently Asked Questions:

Will this knocker fit my uPVC, wood or composite door?
Yes, this knocker is specifically designed for surface mounting on both uPVC, wood and composite doors. The quick-fit fixing method uses screws that fix securely into the door surface without penetrating through to the interior, making it ideal for modern door materials. The fixing plate provides a secure mounting surface that works with the reinforced sections typically found in these door types. Simply ensure your door has a flat, smooth area measuring at least 150mm × 35mm for proper installation, and that you have access to drill into the outer surface of the door.

What type of screws do I need for installation, and why aren't they included?
The screws are not included because different door materials require completely different screw specifications. Composite doors need standard wood screws, while uPVC doors require self-tapping screws designed for plastic materials. Timber doors may need different thread patterns, and reinforced uPVC doors need screws capable of penetrating both the outer skin and the internal reinforcement. Additionally, screw length varies depending on your specific door construction - typically 15-20mm for solid composite or 20-25mm for reinforced uPVC. Since we can't predict which material your door is made from, it's far more practical for you to purchase the correct screws locally where you can specify your exact door type to the supplier. Most DIY enthusiasts already have suitable screws in their toolkit. We recommend stainless steel or corrosion-resistant screws for exterior use to prevent rust staining.

How does the surface-fit method prevent condensation compared to traditional knockers?
Traditional knockers require bolts that pass completely through the door from exterior to interior, creating what's known as a "cold bridge" - a continuous metal pathway that conducts cold from outside directly to inside. When warm, moist interior air meets these cold bolt heads protruding on the inside of your door, condensation forms, potentially leading to drips, water staining, and even mould growth. This surface-fit knocker eliminates the problem by using screws that fix into the door surface without penetrating through to the interior. Since there are no metal components passing through the full door thickness, there's no cold bridge created and no exposed metal on the interior face to cause condensation - the door's thermal barrier remains completely intact throughout its full thickness.
