About Window and Door Hardware products
Residential door hardware should reflect the purpose of each opening. Door knobs and latches for a bedroom may need a privacy function, while a closet generally needs passage hardware without a lock. Flush pulls keep sliding-door faces clear of projecting handles; their position should leave room for fingers beside the frame.
Window and Door Hardware
Contemporary door hardware often uses simple profiles, but finish names alone do not establish a match. Compare samples of door knobs and escutcheons under the room’s lighting, especially when specifying fittings from different manufacturers. The plan should also account for door stops: locate them to prevent the handle from striking a wall without creating a trip hazard.
A window and door hardware schedule records the fittings for each opening, including door closers and window hinges. On projects in the United States, accessible routes and fire-rated doors can affect hardware selection. Closing force and latching requirements should be resolved with the project team before fittings are specified.
What should I measure when replacing architectural door handles?
Record the door thickness and backset, the distance from the door edge to the center of the lock bore. Compare mounting-hole spacing and the new fitting’s footprint with the existing hardware.
How do I specify architectural door hardware for an exterior opening?
Check the manufacturer’s exterior-use guidance for locks and door hinges, including any restrictions for coastal exposure. Match the material and finish to the conditions at the opening rather than relying on appearance.
What should I check before choosing a digital door lock?
Confirm how the lock operates when its battery runs low and what backup access it provides. Verify that occupants can exit as required by the applicable code.
