Discover the UK’s Finest Range of Rim Knobs – Where Heritage Meets Quality

At Trade Door Handles, we’ve been supplying Architectural Hardware since 1976, and our reputation speaks for itself. Our curated collection of Rim Knobs combines heritage craftsmanship with modern durability. Ideal for period properties or homes seeking a touch of traditional elegance, our Rim Knobs come in diverse styles – from antique to contemporary.

Unlike mortice knobs, Rim Knobs are specifically designed to be used with rim locks, which are mounted on the door's surface. Each set includes one knob with a rose plate and another designed to attach directly to the rim lock for secure functionality. Need flexibility? We also offer Mortice/Rim Knobs with loose fittings so you can customise as needed.

Available in finishes like Black Iron, Brass, Polished Chrome and more, our Rim Knobs aren’t just functional – they’re feature pieces that bring character and charm to your doors 🏡. We proudly supply products from the finest British manufacturers and deliver across the UK, ensuring top-tier quality every time.

Whether you're refurbishing a Georgian townhouse or adding detail to a countryside cottage, our collection of Rim Knobs is tailored to suit every taste and project.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Rim Knobs?

Rim Knobs are traditional door knobs designed to work with rim locks, which are mounted on the surface of a door, rather than embedded like mortice locks.

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

Rim Knobs are designed for rim locks and include a specific fixing format, while Mortice Knobs are used with mortice latches and locks fitted inside the door.

Can I use Rim Knobs on modern doors?

Absolutely! While they’re perfect for period homes, Rim Knobs add a unique touch of character to any property, modern or traditional.

Do Rim Knobs come in different styles and finishes?

Yes, we supply over 150 styles in various finishes including Brass, Chrome, Black, Satin Nickel, and more – from traditional beehive to sleek knurled designs.

Do Rim Knobs come as a pair?
