Bronze Door Knob

Bronze is another common material used to make door knobs. The metal is an extremely hardy, durable metal, lasting for centuries. Bronze refers to a broad range of copper alloys. It is strong and tough and has myriad uses. With the exception of steel, bronze is superior to iron in nearly every application. Although bronze develops a patina, it does not oxidize beyond the surface. Bronze is considerably less brittle than iron and has a lower casting temperature. Bronze also has lower melting points than steel. Bronze resists corrosion and metal fatigue better than steel and also conducts electricity and heat better than most steels. For all these properties, bronze becomes a popular material to make decorative door knobs. From elegantly formal to crude rustic designs, varieties of bronze knobs are available.
