Don-Jo 1611-605 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Is the Don-Jo 1611 rated for commercial entry doors?
No. The 1611 is a residential-rated accessory. It is a reasonable pick for apartment, townhome, and condo unit doors in a multi-family portfolio, but for a commercial storefront or institutional opening you would be specifying outside its rating.
2) Is the Don-Jo 1611 sold individually or in a pack?
It ships as a shelf pack of 10. That suits a property manager re-keying or refreshing a block of unit doors, or a supply house stocking residential trim, but it means a homeowner buying one door's worth is buying nine spares.
3) Does the Don-Jo 1611 knocker include a peephole or viewer?
No, the 1611 is a knocker only, with no integrated viewer. If you want the knocker and the door viewer combined in one plate, the Trimco 620 is a contemporary-style knocker offered with an optional viewer and engraving.
4) I need a door knocker with a built-in peephole — does the Don-Jo 1611 have one?
No. The Don-Jo 1611 is a brass knocker only, 6-7/8 inches by 3-1/2 inches, with no viewer bore. If the opening needs both functions in one cutout, the Trimco 620 is a contemporary-style knocker offered with an optional viewer and optional engraving. That matters on install: the combined unit takes a single through-bore in the door, while specifying the 1611 means drilling and finishing a separate viewer hole above it. For apartment and condo entries where unit numbers are engraved on the knocker plate, the 620's engraving option covers that in one part as well.
5) What should I use instead of the Don-Jo 1611 if the door hardware is oil-rubbed or dark bronze?
The Don-Jo 1611 is brass in 605 polished brass, which reads bright against dark hardware. For a bronze opening, the Emtek 86060 is a 4 inch sandcast bronze knocker with a ring pull — a bronze substrate rather than a plated brass one, so the tone comes from the metal itself. Note the size gap: the 86060 is a 4 inch knocker where the 1611 is 6-7/8 inches long, so if you are covering an existing mounting scar or fastener holes from a larger knocker, confirm the footprint before switching.
6) What finish does the Don-Jo 1611 knocker come in?
One finish only: 605, polished (bright) brass. That is the single orderable configuration, so if you are matching a satin nickel or oil-rubbed bronze entry set, this knocker will not blend in. Brass substrate throughout, not plated steel.
7) What are the alternatives to the Don-Jo 1611 if I want a different look?
For a traditional colonial profile, the Trimco 621 is a colonial-style knocker. Emtek's 2620 is a solid brass urn-style knocker, and the Emtek 86060 is a 4 inch sandcast bronze knocker with a ring pull if you want a darker, hand-cast look rather than bright brass. Sure-Loc offers a 5 inch residential knocker as a simpler option. The 1611 itself is the bright-brass, ANSI L13151 choice at 6-7/8 by 3-1/2 inches.
8) What is a comparable solid brass door knocker to the Don-Jo 1611?
The Emtek 2620 is a solid brass door knocker in an urn style, which makes it the closest material match to the Don-Jo 1611 — the 1611 is brass as well, measuring 6-7/8 inches long by 3-1/2 inches wide and offered in 605 polished brass. The difference is styling: the 1611 is a plain rectangular residential plate-and-striker knocker, while the 2620 carries a decorative urn silhouette. If a property manager is matching existing hardware across a run of units, the 1611's straightforward profile is easier to repeat; for a single upgraded front door where the knocker is meant to read as an ornament, the urn shape gives a different look.
9) Is there a smaller door knocker than the Don-Jo 1611 for a narrow stile or a glass-panel entry door?
Two directions. Within the Don-Jo knocker line, the 1615 is the compact model at 3-1/4 inches by 2-1/8 inches, against the 1611's 6-7/8 by 3-1/2. Across brands, the Sure-Loc DK180 is a 5 inch residential door knocker, sitting between the two Don-Jo sizes. On a narrow-stile or glass-panel door the governing dimension is the width of solid material you have to land the plate and its fasteners on, so measure the stile first and pick the model whose width clears it.
10) Is a ring-pull knocker like the Emtek 86060 an interchangeable swap for the Don-Jo 1611?
They are not the same part even though both are knockers. The Emtek 86060 is a 4 inch bronze unit with a ring pull, a hanging ring that pivots against a backplate, while the Don-Jo 1611 is a 6-7/8 by 3-1/2 inch brass knocker in the conventional plate-and-striker form. The ring style changes the fastener pattern and the visible footprint, so it will not drop into an existing 1611 hole layout. If you are replacing 1611s one-for-one across a portfolio, staying with the 1611 avoids patching and refinishing the door face at each unit.
11) Can I standardize a whole building on Don-Jo knockers but use different sizes per door?
Yes. The 1611, 1613, and 1615 are one coordinated Don-Jo family, so you can run the 6-7/8 by 3-1/2 inch 1611 on unit doors and step up to the 14 by 4-1/2 inch 1613 on a main or lobby entry while keeping the brass appearance consistent.
12) The front doors on my buildings are traditional colonial — is the Don-Jo 1611 the right style, or is there a better match?
The Don-Jo 1611 is a plain rectangular brass knocker, 6-7/8 by 3-1/2 inches in 605 polished brass — a neutral profile that sits quietly on most residential entries without committing to a period look. If the doors are specifically colonial with six-panel or raised-panel millwork and you want the knocker to echo that, the Trimco 621 is a colonial-style knocker. The Trimco 620 goes the other way, a contemporary style for flat or modern slab doors. All three mount to a residential entry door; the choice is what the door already says stylistically.
