Matthew Storr (Pineapple Door Knocker)

An Easter Egg door knocker people notice, for a new home or a done-up frontage. Casting defects are covered for 30 years.

Read the full description

The door that marks the turn of the year without a plastic bunny in sight. Choose this over seasonal tat and spring arrives on the front step with a bit of grace.

An egg at its centre, surrounded by the small signs of early spring. Daffodils opening. Tulips pushing through. The quiet optimism that comes when the light changes and the garden begins again. It is not ornate for the sake of it. The detail sits low and deliberate. You notice it when you step closer.

That low, deliberate detail only survives because of how we make it. Every one is 3D-printed in wax and investment cast a single piece at a time.

Cast in the same AB2 aluminium bronze we use across the range, with the warm brass tone most people are looking for. It arrives bright and will deepen naturally with time and touch. If you prefer it lighter, a quick polish will bring it back.

Already own one of our bases? Take the Easter Egg head on its own and swap it on in under two minutes.

A complete set, supplied with a matching backplate and fixings. Fits standard doors. And because it’s part of our interchangeable system, when the season turns you can swap the head for another without changing the base.

Backed by a 30-year guarantee. If it’s not right, we’ll make it right: 90 days for a full refund, no faff. Buying it as a gift? It arrives in plain, recyclable packaging ready to give. If you are up against a date, email us.

Sits well on a painted cottage door, pale render, a spring porch, or anywhere the season is worth marking. Up for Easter and spring, then swap in another head when the season turns.

Material. AB2 aluminium bronze, left unlacquered. It will not rust. It handles salt spray, rain, frost, and decades outdoors. The warm brassy colour deepens with age. Nothing is plated on, so nothing chips off. It weathers far better than brass. The full spec is CuAl10Ni5Fe4.

Casting. Investment cast from 3D-printed wax patterns. Whiskers, feathers and fur come out in detail no hand tool can reach. Every piece is finished and checked by hand.

Fixings. Front-screw fix to the door face. Fits composite doors, solid wood doors, and metal doors. No through-bolts, no drilling all the way through.

System. The head separates from the base. Fit the base once, swap the head as often as you like. Forty-plus heads in the range, plus a wreath holder.

What's in the box. A head, the starter kit (base plate, ring, receiver, and fixings), and a step-by-step installation guide. Everything you need for a first fit to your door.

Guarantee. 30 years.

Measurements are approximate due to the handmade nature of the casting and finishing process.

It arrives fresh from the foundry in the warm colour people call brass, and it won't stay that colour. It has a living finish: it darkens where it sits out of the rain and brightens where rain runs off it. Give it time and it looks as if it has always been on that door.

If you want it bright again, a quick buff with a soft cloth and a little brass polish brings the warm colour back to life. We do not lacquer it, because we would rather keep the character than the gloss.

Left alone, it keeps getting darker with time and touch. The finish moves. The casting carries our 30-year guarantee against defects in materials or craftsmanship.

Packaging. Recyclable cardboard and paper packaging. No plastic, no decorative pouches, no wooden boxes.

Dispatch. We try our best to dispatch on Tuesdays and Fridays, but honestly, sometimes it doesn't happen. We're a small business, all hands on deck. If your order needs to be somewhere by a particular date, please email us and let us know.

UK. Free delivery on orders of £100 and over.

International. Delivery is £14.95 to the EU, EEA, Switzerland and Jersey, and £24.95 to the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore and the United Arab Emirates. Import taxes may be due on arrival. Anywhere else? Email us for a delivery quote.

Returns. Zero faff. 90 days from delivery, return for any reason, full refund. Honest heads-up: we have had three returns in five years, mostly from house sales falling through, so it may take us a minute to work out how to do it. Drop us an email first and we will get you sorted.

Fixings and instructions are in the box. Your first knocker arrives as a complete kit, ready to fit.

The backplate and receiver screw to the face of your door and stay there. The head hooks onto the backplate, and one bolt runs up through the head to lock the whole thing together.

Front-screw fix. It suits composite doors, solid wood doors and metal doors. No through-bolts, and no drilling all the way through.

To change the look later, loosen that one bolt, lift the old head away and drop a new one on. Every head we make fits the same backplate.

If anything is unclear when it arrives, email hello@yorkshirefoundry.com and we will talk you through it.

Frequently asked

Do you offer other finishes, like silver, chrome or antique brass?

We don't plate. Every head is cast and left as the metal: a warm golden tone most people call brass, which deepens as it ages. If you want a different colour, we can hand-finish a head in Cerakote, a hard-wearing ceramic coating, in almost any shade, made to order. Email us and we'll sort it.

How big is it?

Every product page lists the exact head and full-set dimensions. As a guide, a full knocker stands around 21cm tall and 9cm wide, with the depth changing a little from design to design.

Do you ship to the US or worldwide?

We ship from Yorkshire to the EU, EEA, Switzerland, Jersey, the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore and the United Arab Emirates. Delivery is £14.95 to the EU, EEA, Switzerland and Jersey, and £24.95 to the others. Any import duty or tax is set by your own country and charged on arrival. Anywhere else? Email us for a delivery quote.

Is it really guaranteed for 30 years?

Yes. Every knocker is cast, not plated, and backed by our 30-year guarantee. If something isn't right, we'll put it right.
