The Best Door Knocker Around! Review of Vecchio Greenman Authentic Iron Door Knocker

Since I was a child I had always wanted a pair of door knockers like the ones we seen in the movie Labyrinth, with David Bowie. I was infatuated with how neat they were, and as I grew older I knew that one day, when I got my own house, I would seek out a door knocker from that movie, or one that resembled one of them anyway.

Sadly, the Labyrinth door knockers that are sold online do not come with the actual knocking ring in their mouths, so what point do they serve? None as far as I was concerned.

Disappointment left my thoughts rather fast though, and that was because I had discovered the Vecchio Greenman Authentic Iron Door Knocker.

I scoped it out on an auction site for $70.00 plus shipping, which at the time was just too expensive. However after some real digging through search engines, I was able to locate this very door knocker online at Design Toscano for a fraction of the price. With some more research, I located a $15.00 off coupon on my first order, and this $70.00 door knocker became mine for $46.00. Now that is a deal, especially considering the quality.

The Vecchio Greenman Authentic Iron Door Knocker is made of iron, and this door knocker is not your average run of the mill low quality knocker. It is heavy, it is very detailed, and yes, it may even be considered a little bit scary.

I was hoping to have it before Halloween, because I figured the neighbors would get a kick out of it, but no such luck. That did not matter to me though, as my Vecchio Greenman Authentic Iron Door Knocker will be hanging on my door year round.

There is one con when it comes to this door knocker. It is the fact that it did not come with included screws for hanging, so you will have to dig in your tool box for some screws before you can mount it.
There are 2 mounting spots, each hole is located inside of the Greenman's ears. The door protector plate is attached right under the doors knocking ring to keep your door from being damaged. This will screw right through the entire door, with a decorative piece to screw in to hide the hole.

Overall:
 
The Vecchio Greenman Authentic Iron Door Knocker is an awesome addition to your front door. It is large, impressive, and truly gives your house that castle feel.

If you have been looking for that one particular door knocker that screams 'look at me', than this is the one for you.
