The good thing about a brass door knob is that it will last longer than you and your house will. There are also thousands of different designs to choose from.
Most door knobs are made from brass, even the ones that have a silver or chrome finish. Brass lasts an incredibly long time, and maintains its shape and finish under daily abuse while still being a very affordable material. Aside from crystal door knobs, almost all other door knobs are made from brass.
You can find brass door knobs at any home improvement center, but if you want to find something really special you’ll have to turn to other avenues. Antique brass door knobs can be found at antique stores, garage sales, and second-hand stores. High end polished or solid brass door knobs can be found on the internet or interior design stores in your area.
Some people feel that brass knobs are the generic choice when you don’t really know what you want. This is only true if you choose a generic style!
