Have questions about architectural hardware? Find answers to the most common queries below.
Architectural hardware refers to all the metal fittings, components, and accessories installed on buildings, doors, windows, and cabinets to make them functional, secure, and visually appealing. This includes door handles, locks, hinges, key cylinders, door closers, drawer runners, wardrobe fittings, and glass patch fittings.
We offer several door handle configurations suitable for different design needs:
Pull Handles: Long, solid metal handles typically mounted on main doors or commercial glass entry doors for a premium, heavy-duty feel.
Lever Handles on Rose: Modern, minimalist handles where the lever sits on a small circular or square plate (rose), hiding the screw heads.
Lever Handles on Plate: Traditional style lever handles mounted on a long rectangular backplate.
Digital Smart Locks: Keyless entry solutions featuring fingerprint scanners, RFID cards, PIN codes, and mobile app integration.
Hinges carry the entire weight of your doors and cabinet shutters. Choosing cheap or low-grade hinges leads to doors sagging, alignment issues, squeaking noises, and difficulty closing shutters over time. High-quality hinges made of Stainless Steel (SS 304) or featuring soft-close hydraulic dampers ensure smooth, silent movements, prevent cabinet slamming, and provide long-lasting durability without rusting.
Modular furniture relies heavily on functional hardware to maximize storage and utility:
Telescopic/Tandem Drawer Slides: Provide smooth, full extension and soft-closing motions for kitchen drawers.
Cabinet Gas Springs & Lift-Up Systems: Allow overhead shutters to open vertically and stay open automatically.
