Large Beehive Door Knobs

Please click on the images to expand them.

The Period Ironmonger has just released a new product in their Period Door Hardware range. We will soon be introducing a new Beehive escutcheon to complement these knobs.

We are happy to introduce our Large Beehive Door Knobs which are available in two finishes - Aged Brass and Nickel Silver. Both are stunning and like the rest of our Door Hardware range both are suitable for the period or contemporary home. They can be used with both mortise locks and Rim Locks. If used with a rim lock one of the roses is discarded as shown in the image with our Davenport Rim Lock.

The knobs are 58mm in diameter and project from the door 85mm with the rose in place. The rose diameter is 58mm and the knob projection without the rose is 73mm. The knobs are hollow cast and their total weight is approximately 742 grams.

The knobs are joined together with a threaded bar and secured with a small grub screw in the neck of the knob. The threaded bar allows micro-adjustment when tightening the knobs and this gives a smooth feel when the knobs are turned making them ideal for any width of door. 

The brass Beehive knobs are available now (25/05/10) and we are awaiting the arrival of the Nickel knobs and the new Beehive escutcheons, hopefully they will be with us in the near future.
