We buy a lot of doors every year and get to reclaim door knobs and other door furniture from them, including locks, latches, hooks and escutcheons. We also stock a wide range of quality solid brass, nickel plated and wrought iron door knobs, hooks, latches and hinges, faithfully manufactured by hand to replicate the original Georgian regency and Victorian patterns. Cast iron brackets are another speciality, both reclaimed and cast iron reproductions based on the original Victorian patterns.
We use a local traditional locksmith to restore original 19th Century rim locks and rim latches. Other items you can find in our showroom include 18th Century door latches, huge brass door pulls from old shops and offices, ebony door knobs, elaborate finger plates, every conceivable pattern of keyhole cover, old nails, brass and steel bolts, reclaimed casement and sash window catches and locks, crystal glass cupboard knobs, servants bells, beautifully engineered Victorian brass hinges.
We have literally thousands of items to rummage through to find the perfect match for your door or window. These days most builders merchants offer flimsy copies of Georgian-style door knockers in a lacquered brass plate, we can provide beautiful cast iron and brass originals that have witnessed thousands of visitors to British homes, from Victorian examples by Kenrick, to gnarled simple wrought iron 18th century examples. We are also stockists of the Anvil Range of traditional ironmongery.
