Door Hardware

We are committed to bringing you door hardware from the best brands at the best value possible. We also want to provide as much assistance and guidance as we can during your shopping and installation experience. Hardware can be a little intimidating for beginners when ordering and installing, and we want to make that process go as smoothly as possible. 

So, what encompasses door hardware? Well, the first component that people think of is the traditional doorknob. But the range of hardware options for residential and commercial doors is far more expansive. The hardware options for door handles alone include knobs, levers, and flush pulls, not to mention all the possibilities for locking mechanisms. You can choose a keyed lock, a keyless lock, and a range of deadbolts and multiple lock combinations for your home or commercial space. Hardware for doors also includes hinges, of course, as well as specialty hardware for doors, such as hanging barn doors and pocket doors. 

On top of functionality, door hardware also comes in a wide range of design aesthetics. Every home and commercial space is different; therefore, there should be matching hardware to fit that design. You can choose modern and industrial hardware, sleek and minimal hardware, and even vintage and antique style hardware. The hardware choosing process can be truly customizable to your style preferences.

Choosing, ordering, and installing hardware for your doors does not have to be frustrating or a hassle at all. It simply takes the proper preparation and a little patience. The best way to prepare for choosing and ordering your new hardware is to measure your existing door properly. If you are choosing a new doorknob option, then you need to measure the existing bore holes in your doors. If you are choosing specialty hardware, such as for a barn door, you need to properly measure the length of the track and the weight capacity of the door hangers.
