Finish Your Entrance with a Timeless Centrepiece

Centre Door Knobs for Timber Doors, Heritage Homes & Modern Entrances

Centre door knobs serve as both a practical addition and a decorative focal point for your entrance. Unlike turning mortice knobs, these fixed fittings are used to pull the door closed and are typically mounted centrally on the front face of timber or composite doors. They’re a popular choice for period homes, Georgian façades, and contemporary entrances alike — offering a tactile, symmetrical finish.

At Trade Door Handles, our collection includes designs in solid brass, polished chrome, aged bronze, antique brass, and matt black, carefully selected to complement a wide range of exterior door styles. These high-quality pieces are supplied by trusted British manufacturers such as Carlisle Brass, Frelan Hardware, and From The Anvil, offering durability and visual appeal in equal measure.

Whether you’re looking for an ornate beehive design to suit a heritage door or a sleek, minimalist option for a painted entrance, there are options to match every aesthetic. Many customers choose to coordinate their centre door knob with matching door knockers, escutcheons, or letter plates for a polished, consistent finish across the door.
