Our beautiful, Matt Black forged iron Heart Door Knocker has quickly become one of our most popular products and we are thrilled that you love it as much as we do. With its weighty, heart shaped hand knocker and mini heart-shaped back and striker plates, it is a subtle, quirky design which oozes character without losing its innate elegance. At Jim Lawrence, we believe that the exterior design of your home is as important as inside because what you choose to put outside is a teasing taster of the beauty within. We think our Heart Door Knocker truly reflects that.
For centuries door knockers were fairly simple cast iron rings, painted black and designed to be sturdy and useful rather than decorative. As the middle classes grew and sought more character for their homes, and blacksmiths honed their skills, door knockers became more decorative, often relating to local patterns and trades. Handcrafted from high quality steel our
Heart Door Knocker highlights the skill of our metal workers and their ability to produce products that suit contemporary and period properties.
- May not be suitable for a composite door, see additional information below.

Additional information: The Heart Door Knocker may not be suitable for a composite door (depending on what material the door is made from) as it is fitted with screws and may be too heavy for the outer layer. In this case we recommend our Lion's Head or Melton knockers as these are fitted with a bolt and nut that goes right through the door.
