It's called a lock/latch 'receiver'.
The bit that covers the keyhole is called an 'escutcheon plate'
That's also called a 'striking plate'
As below:
Door
Frame
Hinges
Door knob
Lock
Knocker
Wooden bit along the bottom
Draught excluder
Stick on numbers
"No Jehovas" sign

wrong about the door
- it's a muntin not a mullion, and completely wrong about the frame/casing/lining etc.

Muntin....Hear, hear. And where are those (profiled) architraves? When you buy a simple door frame from, say, Wickes, what is that spare bit of distance-keeping wood nailed at the bottom called?
