Handles4Doors are here to offer the very best help and advice possible. We can provide you with a list of everything needed for a specific project, whether it is helping to find the best hinges and latches to use with your new door handles or selecting the perfect finish for your contemporary design project. We are able to offer discounts across a range of products and for large orders and our delivery service is second to none.
We also offer a ‘sample-service’ for those undecided on what product best suits their project. This service enables you to buy a selection of samples, see and feel them first hand before making a decision. We want to make sure you receive exactly the right product.
The advice available at Handles4Doors is free and detailed. And one of the best pieces of advice we can offer before you call or email is that, in the Architectural Ironmongery Business, you get what you pay for.
There are many copies and poorly made products on the market that are, quite simply, a waste of your hard-earned money. They won’t last, the finishes will corrode and you will only have to make a repeat purchase soon after.
It really is worth paying a little extra for a quality and level of finish that will not diminish over time. Be assured, poor quality products do not make it onto our site and any product that fails to meet our exacting standards will be binned in a flash. Also, be assured that fantastic offers do make it onto our site – we work closely with our suppliers to ensure that you, our customers, can get great deals on quality products throughout the year!
