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.

Our polished brass has a living finish, which means it naturally darkens and ages over time. If you order multiple pieces in polished brass, there might be slight variations in finish and tone initially. Other finishes won’t darken or tarnish. For a lasting shiny polished brass finish, you can request a custom lacquered brass finish by emailing us.
