Right, you’ve found the door that suits your needs perfectly, so now it’s just the hardware you have to buy to complete the picture. You browse through the wide variety of door hardware that’s available, and find it all terribly confusing. Which hardware should you buy that will work perfectly with the door you’ve just ordered?

We at Doorsets realize that some customers will be overwhelmed when faced with the wide array of door hardware options that we offer, for both domestic and commercial use, so we’ve put together the following list of great tips to help you make the correct choice of hardware for your door.

Cost

Firstly, although price does matter, if you buy hardware for your door based on the cheapest or the most expensive in the range, there is a very good chance that it will not be the right one for your door.

Door handles

Yes, you do want your door handles to look great, and quality is also very important, but there are other things to consider too when buying them, such as their functionality, their quality, their durability, and their practicality as well.

As far as the style of door handles you choose goes, you should buy them not according to the furniture you have in your home, but rather along the lines of your house, as if it were completely empty. This way, if and when you ever want to change the décor of your home, your door handles will always fit in perfectly.

Hinges and locks

Now you might think that because hinges aren’t visible, and no one really takes much notice of door locks, that any hinge or lock is okay as long as it does the job. However, there are even things to consider carefully when you’re purchasing these hardware items, such as the following:

  • They should match the handles, since the door will not always be closed
  • You should also take into consideration how often that particular door will be opened and closed during the day, and choose your hinges and locks according to their quality and durability

We at Doorsets carry a large range of door hardware, in a wide variety of styles, colours, and prices to match any door. We know that security is the top priority of any home or business owner, so we carry a range of 2, 3, 4, and 5 lever mortice security locks, as well as code entry handles, to meet all your security needs.
