Doctor door knockers, also known as "Doctor's knockers," are a specific style of door knocker traditionally associated with professional offices and residences of doctors. The style dates back to the 18th and 19th centuries in Britain, where such knockers were commonly found on the doors of physicians, surgeons, and apothecaries.
Over time, the design has come to symbolize not just a professional presence but also reliability and tradition. This door knocker is installed from the inside by drilling through the door, ensuring stability and preventing theft.
Polished brass is an unlacquered living finish that will naturally darken over time, and slight variations between pieces are normal. All other finishes will not tarnish. For a long-lasting high-shine finish, lacquered brass is available as a custom order.
All measurements are approximate.
