Cal-Royal SBDK356-US26 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Cal-Royal SBDK356 door knocker cover the holes left by an IVES 312 knocker?
The SBDK356 is similar in profile to the IVES#312, which is why it gets specified as a matching or replacement knocker. It measures 3-1/2 x 6-7/8 inches with screw holes at 4-1/8 inch center to center, so check the existing hole spacing on the door before you pull the old knocker off. If the old holes are at 4-1/8 CTC, the new screws land in them.
2) Is the Cal-Royal SBDK356 knocker rated to a BHMA standard for a commercial spec?
It conforms to ANSI/BHMA A156.16 L23151. A156.16 is the auxiliary hardware standard and L23151 is the knocker type number under it, so the SBDK356 can be written into a commercial hardware schedule by that designation rather than by brand alone. It is a commercial-classified item, used on office, education, healthcare, retail, government and multi-tenant residential entries.
3) What is a comparable solid brass door knocker to the Cal-Royal SBDK356?
The Emtek 2620 is a solid brass door knocker in an urn style, which puts it in the same solid brass material class as the Cal-Royal SBDK356. The SBDK356 is a solid brass knocker measuring 3-1/2 inches by 6-7/8 inches with screw holes at 4-1/8 inches center to center, so if you are matching an existing screw pattern in the door, the SBDK356 gives you a published hole spacing to work from, while the 2620 is chosen on its urn profile.
4) I need a door knocker with a peephole in the same plate - what should I use instead of the Cal-Royal SBDK356?
Use the Trimco 620 contemporary style door knocker, which is offered with an optional viewer and optional engraving. The Cal-Royal SBDK356 is a knocker only, a solid brass unit 3-1/2 inches by 6-7/8 inches, so on a multi-tenant or apartment entry where the resident needs to see the caller, the 620 combines both functions in one prep rather than requiring a separate viewer bore.
5) Does the Cal-Royal SBDK356 knocker come with mounting screws, or do I need to buy hardware separately?
Screws are in the box. Each SBDK356 ships individually poly-bagged and packed complete with its mounting screws, so nothing else has to be ordered to hang it. The poly bag also keeps the finish from rubbing in transit, which matters on the polished finishes.
6) Is the SBDK356 solid brass all the way through or just brass plated?
Solid brass, not plated stock. The substrate is brass and the finish codes are applied over it, which is why the US3 and US5 versions can be polished back if they get scuffed on a high-traffic entry. Solid brass is also the reason it has the weight a property manager expects on a main entry door.
7) What is the difference between the Cal-Royal SBDK356 and an Emtek or Trimco door knocker?
They split on style and material. The SBDK356 is solid brass in a plate-and-knocker profile like the IVES#312, carrying ANSI/BHMA A156.16 L23151. Emtek's 2620 is a solid brass urn-style knocker, and the 86060 is a 4 inch sandcast bronze knocker with a ring pull, both of which read more decorative. Trimco splits by look: the 621 is colonial style, the 620 is contemporary. For a commercial schedule written to a BHMA type number, the Cal-Royal is the one carrying that designation.
8) How much room do I need on the door face to mount a 3-1/2 by 6-7/8 inch knocker?
Plan on a clear 3-1/2 by 6-7/8 inch footprint plus room to center it. The two screws sit 4-1/8 inches apart center to center along the plate, so on a stile-and-rail or narrow-lite door make sure the flat area between the glass stop and the door edge takes the full 3-1/2 inch width. On a flush hollow metal or wood entry it is a straight center-line layout.
9) Which door knocker should I standardize on across a building where the hardware suite is satin chrome or satin nickel?
The Cal-Royal SBDK356 is offered in US26D satin chrome and in US15 satin nickel, along with US26 polished chrome, US3 polished brass, US5 antique brass, US15A satin nickel oxidized, and US10B antique bronze oiled, so a single model covers most standard architectural finish callouts across a facility. Among the alternatives, the Trimco 620 is a contemporary style knocker and the Trimco 621 is colonial style, which are style-driven choices rather than a single part carried across a finish schedule.
10) I am replacing an IVES 312 door knocker - what is the closest current option?
The Cal-Royal SBDK356 is similar in profile to the IVES#312, which makes it the direct-profile replacement to look at first. It is solid brass, 3-1/2 inches by 6-7/8 inches, with screw holes at 4-1/8 inches center to center, and ships poly-bagged with mounting screws included. If the door instead needs a ring pull format, the Emtek 86060 is a 4 inch bronze knocker with a ring pull, a different look on the door face.
11) Can I order the same Cal-Royal knocker across a whole building in one finish?
Yes, the SBDK356 is a single model ordered by finish, so standardizing a portfolio comes down to picking one of the seven codes and repeating it. Satin chrome US26D and satin nickel US15 are the usual choices where the existing lever hardware is a brushed finish; US3 polished brass matches older brass suites. Same plate, same 4-1/8 CTC screw spacing on every door, which keeps the install identical unit to unit.
