Walnut Brown Bakelite BROLITE Hexagonal Door Knobs

Bakelite Door knobs/handles supplied with our Art Deco coppered backplate, creating a wonderful contrast of material and a striking authentic vintage look.
Sold in pairs, the Black or Walnut real Bakelite are matched to the solid brass back plates. The plates are available in Polished Copper Unlacquered, Polished Chrome or Polished Brass Unlacquered. The brass and copper plates will mellow with time or with routine polishing with Brasso or Brasso Wadding or similar, will allow the finishes to blossom and give you a wonderful vintage patina. Over time, the copper finish will wear partly off to the Nickel finish below, this will only add to the characterful vintage look. 
Supplied with 3/4″ (19mm) wood screws, a 5/16″ (7.9mm) Spindle (110mm) and grub screws. 
Being unsprung, we recommend a 3″ (76mm) minimum deep Mortice latch or lock, with a medium to strong spring. If original latches or locks are utilised, these may have a 7.6mm follower (spindle hole) and easily filed to accommodate the new spindle.
In addition, spring cassettes may be utilised to improve spring strength
