What’s the difference between Mortice Knobs and Rim Knobs?

Choosing the right knob comes down to the lock type already fitted to your door. Mortice knobs pair with a latch/lock that sits inside the door edge, while rim knobs are used with surface-mounted rim locks. If you’re unsure, check the door edge first—if you can see a latch tongue coming from the edge, you’ll usually need a mortice knob.

Polished Chrome Mortice Knobs

Mortice door knobs operate a mortice latch or mortice lock housed within the door. They’re commonly used on internal doors and are ideal when you want a neat, streamlined look. A chrome mortice knob is a popular choice for busy homes and commercial interiors thanks to its crisp appearance and easy-to-match finish.

Best for

• Internal doors with a mortice latch or mortice lock
• Modern and minimalist interiors
• Like-for-like knob replacements where the latch is already fitted

Polished Chrome Rim Knobs

Rim lock knobs are designed for doors with rim locks mounted on the door face. These are a classic option for period properties and restoration work, especially where you want the charm of a traditional rim lock set-up but with a clean polished chrome finish.

Best for

• Traditional doors with surface-mounted rim locks
• Victorian and cottage-style renovations
• Heritage interiors that still use rim lock furniture

Dual-purpose knob sets

You’ll also find mortice/rim compatible knob sets in this collection, giving you flexibility if you’re matching doors across a property or working on a mixed refurbishment. If you want the same knob style throughout, these sets can make specification much simpler.

Finish notes: why polished chrome is a safe choice

Polished chrome is a high-shine, reflective finish that pairs well with white, grey and neutral schemes. It’s also a great “bridge” finish if you already have chrome hinges, chrome latches or chrome escutcheons elsewhere in the property.

Complete the set

For best performance, pair your knob choice with the correct supporting hardware: match mortice knobs with mortice latches, and rim knobs with rim locks.
