Our door knockers are handcrafted so there will be some subtle variations. Each piece is truly unique, engraved with our trademark and finished to order.

Otto is the most recent addition to our door knocker collection and probably our most ambitious. We were keen to portray the traits of an otter; its powerful webbed feet, long body, thick fur and muscular tail as well as show its playful personality. Our otter door knocker is facing down on the door with his head slightly raised making a perfect hand-hold for knocking. Otto’s head is tilted indicating alertness to danger and we added a fish in his jaws to enhance the link to the wilderness. We have tried to capture the natural characteristics of this wild creature as closely as possible; typical of an otter, his ears are almost hidden in his fur and his eyes are small.

The fixing bracket is hidden underneath his tail and rump to ensure it is unseen by visitors as they approach your door. Otto is one of our smaller door knockers but he still pulls a punch weighing just over 700g. He knocks with his front paws which carry the weight to make a resounding knock. A truly unique piece, our otter door knocker is a perfect addition to a riverside or coastal property.

What we love…

  • Unusual design with fish in jaws
  • Detailing of webbed feet and fur
  • Perfect for coastal or riverside property
  • Made entirely by hand
  • Bracket is invisible from the front

Fitting your door knocker

Made entirely by hand and fitted using an easy surface-mounted fixing, there are no visible screws on either side of the door. Our door knockers are suitable for wood doors as well as solid core composite doors and all screws and fittings are supplied.

FINISH OPTIONS

Aged Brass

A vintage appearance is achieved using a natural chemical-free patination process. A clear sealant is applied which protects your door knocker and prevents it from tarnishing. This is a thin and durable coating that, unlike a lacquer, will not crack or peel. It also gives protection against acid rain and salt air. No need for metal cleaning products, just wipe with a soft cloth periodically.

Polished Brass

Our polished door knockers show brass in its natural state. After casting they are highly polished until very bright and shiny. This finish can be maintained using a metal cleaner and soft brush or if left unpolished your door knocker will tarnish and age naturally. If you’d like your door knocker to remain highly polished without regular cleaning, we can add our protective sealant. Please let us know by making a note at checkout.

Raven Black

We apply a patina to the brass which creates a soft black finish that has a matt appearance. The brass is baked and the colour is left to mature before we add our sealant to protect the finish. Little maintenance is required, just wipe periodically with a soft cloth.

Satin Silver

We use a metal plating process over the brass to achieve a stylish silver with a matt finish. Our sealant is applied to protect the finish. Little maintenance is required, just wipe periodically with a soft cloth and warm soapy water

Otter door knocker

I’m delighted with my otter door knocker, it was just what I was looking for, and it looks brilliant on my door. The attention to detail from the design, directions on how to put it up, and the presentation box (which now holds by dog brushes!) was faultless.

Beautiful piece

I bought the Otter door knocker in raven black; the quality of the engraving, its weight and the care with which it’s crafted is indeed rare. Individual to each piece made. It has been made with love and attention. I think I need more than one door so I can keep buying these gorgeous objects. As a knocker, really solid and functional. And the craftsmanship on the box exceeded all expectations. Thank you :)
