Introduction and functions of door buckles:

1. Introduction to door buckles.

Door buckles, also known as door knockers, are indispensable decorations on the doors of private houses in Beijing, especially courtyards of all sizes. As the saying goes, the door is the face of a family, indicating its identity and status. Therefore, in Beijing's private houses, almost all the prestigious courtyard doors have a pair of metal ornaments, which are officially called "door cymbals" and are called door knockers by Beijingers.

This kind of door cymbal on the door of ordinary houses is simple in style, but not lacking in decorative beauty. Some of them also have auspicious symbols, such as a wishful pattern on the outer edge or a bat pattern. There are many types of door knockers. The most common door knockers are hexagonal, about 7 inches square, with a protruding middle part, and leaf-shaped iron sheets or rings hanging from the protruding middle part.

2. The function of door buckle.

Door knockers are generally used for the convenience of opening and closing doors. They are mostly made of iron. Those made of copper and decorated with animal faces can only be enjoyed by princes. When people in the courtyard go out, they hold the leaf-shaped piece or iron ring in the middle with both hands and bring it to the door; outsiders lightly press the door knocker to call the people in the courtyard to open the door. When an acquaintance comes, the number and severity of the buckle will be constant.

In the past, it was common for naughty children to knock on other people's door knockers for fun, and then run away and find no one when they came out. But such things are rare, otherwise the master will be exhausted. In addition to the door knockers that need to be knocked again in emergencies, the sound of the door knockers in the past is also a scene in Beijing's alleys.
