After a chance encounter at the gym, Tom is offered a job working as a door man for the same run-down night club as Paul (Paul Barber), a tough-looking man who likes to use his knuckle duster.

Paul is a volatile man with a history of violence. After learning of Tom's background in boxing he takes him under his wing to teach him the ways of being a door man. Tom soon falls in love with the barmaid for the club and his loyalties are put to the ultimate test as Paul gets increasingly more in trouble with violent gangsters from the area.
