Choose Your Hardware
inspired by the artisanry of traditional blacksmiths, our decorative hardware collections lend a distinctive yet subtle touch of individuality to your garage doors. Hinge straps, pull handles, and other accent pieces inspired by the Old World and early Americana add a touch of rustic elegance to your classic steel garage door.
Knockers, corner brackets, and clavos are a respectful nod to the decorative nails and studs craftsmen have used to accent substantial doors for centuries. Every piece is forged from black powder-coated steel and finished with a hand-hammered look.
