Don-Jo 1615-626 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Does the Don-Jo 1615 door knocker have a peephole built in, or do I need to drill a separate viewer?
The 1615 combines the knocker and the viewer in one unit, so a single prep handles both. That is the point of the model: one bore in the door face instead of a knocker up top and a separate peephole below it. If you want a knocker only and plan to keep an existing viewer elsewhere on the door, the larger Don-Jo 1611 and 1613 are knocker-only models.
2) How big is the Don-Jo 1615 knocker on the door face?
It measures 3-1/4 by 2-1/8 inches, which makes it the smallest of the three Don-Jo knockers. For reference, the 1611 is 6-7/8 x 3-1/2 and the 1613 is 14 x 4-1/2. If you are putting a knocker on a narrow stile door or a door with a lot of glass and only a few inches of flat face to work with, the 1615 is the one that fits where the other two will not.
3) Is the Don-Jo 1615 knocker rated for a commercial building entrance, or is it a residential part?
Residential grade. Don-Jo builds the 1615 for house and apartment entry doors, not for high-traffic commercial openings. It is a reasonable fit for apartment and condo unit doors, townhouses, and residential-style entrances on light commercial buildings, which is the bulk of what a property manager is replacing. For a lobby or storefront entrance taking constant public traffic, specify commercial-grade hardware instead.
4) Which Don-Jo knocker should I use, the 1615, the 1611, or the 1613?
Pick by face space and by whether you need the viewer. The 1615 at 3-1/4 x 2-1/8 is the compact one and the only one of the three with the viewer integrated. The 1611 at 6-7/8 x 3-1/2 is the traditional mid-size knocker, and the 1613 at 14 x 4-1/2 is a full-length plate style for a door where you want a substantial statement piece. The two larger models are brass and carry ANSI L13151.
5) What else can I buy instead of the Don-Jo 1615 if I want a knocker with a viewer?
The Trimco 620 is the closest alternative, a contemporary style knocker offered with an optional viewer and optional engraving. Where the Don-Jo 1615 comes as one fixed configuration in satin chrome, the Trimco 620 lets you decide whether the viewer is included and whether the unit gets engraved, which matters if you are numbering unit doors in a multi-family building.
6) What is the closest equivalent to the Don-Jo 1615 if I need a knocker and viewer in one unit?
The Trimco 620 is the closest match. It is a contemporary style door knocker offered with an optional viewer, so like the Don-Jo 1615 it puts the knocker and the peephole in a single plate rather than requiring a separate viewer bored above it. The difference is that the viewer is integral to the Don-Jo 1615, which is a compact 3-1/4" x 2-1/8" residential unit in brass, while on the Trimco 620 the viewer is an option you specify when ordering, and the 620 also offers engraving. If you are standardizing unit doors on a knocker-with-viewer, both give you one bore and one plate; check the 620 order string carries the viewer option before you release the order.
7) What should I use instead of the Don-Jo 1615 if the door already has a peephole?
If a viewer is already bored in the door, a knocker-only unit avoids a redundant second lens. The Trimco 621 is a colonial style door knocker with no viewer, and the Emtek 2620 is a solid brass urn style knocker. Either mounts as a knocker alone, which also frees you to place it at a height that suits the door face rather than one that has to line up with sightline. The Don-Jo 1615 is the choice when you are boring fresh and want the knocker and viewer to share one compact 3-1/4" x 2-1/8" plate.
8) What is the Don-Jo 1615 knocker made of?
Brass is the substrate, finished in 626 satin chrome. That is a plated brass part, not a stamped steel one, which is what you want on an exterior door face where the hardware sits in the weather all year.
9) What does ANSI L23171 mean on the Don-Jo 1615 door knocker?
L23171 is the ANSI function designation the 1615 is built to, and it is the code that separates it from the knocker-only models: the 1611 and 1613 are both L13151. If your spec or your standardization sheet calls out a knocker with an integral viewer by ANSI number, L23171 is the one to match.
10) I need to buy door knockers for a whole building. How is the Don-Jo 1615 packaged?
In shelf packs of 10. If you are outfitting a 40-unit building, that is four packs, and the pack quantity is worth knowing before you write the PO because you are not buying these one at a time. It also means a distributor stocking them holds them in tens.
11) I want a solid brass or bronze door knocker instead of chrome. What are my options?
The Don-Jo 1615 is only offered in 626 satin chrome, so for a warmer metal look at a different door go to the Emtek 2620, a solid brass knocker in an urn style, or the Emtek 86060, a 4 inch sandcast bronze knocker with a ring pull. Neither of those Emtek units carries an integral viewer the way the 1615 does, so if the viewer is a requirement you would be drilling a separate peephole.
12) Is the Emtek 86060 a substitute for the Don-Jo 1615?
They are not interchangeable. The Emtek 86060 is a 4" sandcast bronze door knocker with a ring pull, so it serves as a knocker and a door pull and has no viewer in the plate. The Don-Jo 1615 is a brass knocker with the viewer built into a 3-1/4" x 2-1/8" body. Swapping the 86060 onto an opening specified for the 1615 leaves the occupant without a peephole and adds a pull the door may not have been prepped for. Choose the 86060 when the look and the ring pull are the point; choose the 1615 when the viewer function has to stay.
13) I am matching colonial style entry doors across a portfolio. Does the Don-Jo 1615 fit, or is there a better style match?
The Don-Jo 1615 is a compact, clean-profile unit at 3-1/4" x 2-1/8", styled to sit unobtrusively on a residential entry door. If the doors are traditionally styled and you want the knocker to read as a period piece, the Trimco 621 is a colonial style knocker and the Emtek 2620 is an urn style in solid brass. The trade is function for form: neither carries a viewer, so on units where the occupant needs to see the caller you would pair them with a separate viewer, whereas the 1615 handles both in one plate. For a mixed portfolio, many property managers run the 1615 on unit doors where the viewer is required and reserve the decorative knockers for common or street-facing entrances.
14) Which knocker do I specify if the plate has to carry a unit number or engraving?
The Trimco 620 is the one to specify. It is a contemporary style knocker available with engraving as well as an optional viewer, so a single plate can carry the knocker, the peephole, and the unit or suite identification. The Don-Jo 1615 combines the knocker and viewer in a compact 3-1/4" x 2-1/8" brass unit but is supplied as a standard model, so numbering would be a separate applied plate or numeral. On a multi-unit residential job that is the deciding difference: one engraved 620 per door versus a 1615 plus separate numbers.
15) Is there a traditional colonial style door knocker as an alternative to the Don-Jo 1615?
For a colonial look, the Trimco 621 is the colonial style knocker in the range. The Don-Jo 1615 is a plain compact unit built around the viewer function rather than a decorative style piece, so on a period home front door where the knocker is meant to be seen, the 621 is the closer aesthetic match.
16) What is the difference between the Don-Jo 1615 and the larger Don-Jo knockers if I want one look across a building?
The 1615 is the compact member of the family at 3-1/4" x 2-1/8". The Don-Jo lineup also includes the 1611 at 6-7/8" x 3-1/2" and the 1613 at 14" x 4-1/2", both in brass. The 1611 and 1613 are knockers without an integrated viewer and meet ANSI L13151, while the 1615 is the knocker-and-viewer unit meeting ANSI L23171. For a building where the entry doors and the unit doors want the same family, a common approach is the larger 1611 or 1613 on the main entrance for presence and the 1615 on unit doors where the viewer is needed; all three share the brass substrate so the finishes read together.
