Complement

Hi,

"Mr Finkelstein said last night: "I am flattered if anyone thinks I am interesting enough to have lunch with. But anyone promoting either undemocratic or anti-social policies would find me a pretty closed door and hasn't to my knowledge come knocking"." [From The Independent.]

Is the "a pretty closed door" a complement of the pronoun "me"?

Does the prepositional phrase "to my knowledge" function as an adverbial in the sentence?

Thank you.
