How do I get off a door knocker?
How can I get the door knocker off my door? It's not screwed on. The only thing I can think of is a crow bar but I'm afraid it will ruin the door... There isn't anything on the inside of my door....

On the inside of the door you will see two button looking things. They have a cap covering the screws that hold the knocker on. Using a sharp chisel or a screw driver pry those two caps off to get to the screws. I'm a builder 30 years.

Looking for door knocker that has a seperation of 4 5/16" from one screw to the next?
I have a door knocker on my door to my front porch. It has a seperation of 4 5/16" from the top screw to the bottom. My family name is engraved on the door. I want to buy a replacement door knocker that I can put in it's place incase I sell the house without having to replace the door. I tried Home Depot, Lowes, and Menard's, but none of these had door knockers with the same distance between the top screw and the bottom screw. Any ideas where I can find a replacement that will fit right in there? The supplier's name is not on the door knocker itself, so I can't call them and ask for a replacement.

can yopu find one with a bigger span so it will cover the old holes when installed ?? that has to be the way to go , if not you can used a touch of colored putty in the old holes after you remove it then install the new one ,I would get a bigger one and cover the old holes ...good luck

How do I hang up halloween door knocker?
There has got to be an alternative to drilling a hole in the door just for a halloween door knocker?

Yes, but it depends on how heavy it is. They sell this earthquake gel (also called museum gel) or earthquake tape, both of which can stick things onto a surface, but can also come off again (maybe with some effort). 3M also do these removable wall hangers that stick to walls but can be taken off again (like the earthquake tape, with a thin knife)--it's sold in a lot of places like Target, office supply stores, hardware stores, etc. http://www.officesupplysanity.com/home/oss/page_107554/scotch_command_removable_adhesive_utility_hook_5_l.html?rid=base&utm_source=google&utm_medium=base&utm_campaign=office_supplies If your door knocker is really heavy, then get an over-door hook, or an over-door Christmas wreath hanger (you might want to screw it on to the hook/hanger so it doesn't get taken)
Is there an easy way to remove an engraving from a brass door knocker?
The door knocker on my front door still has the previous owners' name engraved. I planned to replace it, but when I took out the screws to remove it, it still wouldn't budge. It seems like it is really sealed to the door somehow. Rather than mess with prying it off and messing up the paint/door I am wondering if there is an alternative.

Why don't you carefully trace an outline of the engraved area of your door knocker, and transfer it to card stock or even cardboard. Take or mail this tracing to site below and have a brass or metal plate engraved with YOUR name. Make sure they drill holes so you can attatch it on top of old knocker with brass screws. Hope this helps.
