Antique Cast Iron Centre Door Pulls
We have available for purchase a very large selection of genuine antique cast iron door pulls, most of which are from the Victorian period. We have been fascinated with these and over a forty year period have sold many and also accumulated a large private collection of these beautifully manufactured items.
“There is little doubt that the second half of the Nineteenth Century saw the most adventurous and best iron casting that has ever been.”
(Ref. Michael Owen: Antique Cast Iron, 1997)
The front door of a Period House makes an important statement about the authenticity and quality of the restoration/renovation that has been undertaken. Thus, an original door pull is an essential element whereas, by contrast, an inappropriate, chrome-plated, poorly cast reproduction calls into question the attention to detail throughout the house.
It is important when choosing a door pull to take into account any screen door, and that you measure the distance between the front of the main door and the back of the screen, to ensure the pull will fit. The specifications for all our pulls include the projection, to assist you with your choice.
Please note that our cast iron centre door pulls, below, are not for sale as a separate item. Customers are invited to select one of our cast iron door knockers, as a companion piece to their choice of door pull.
