Standard Finishes.

Our ever-popular standard finishes are some of the most popular for a reason…they offer high quality, low maintenance options and look great! You can search through our product pages and select these standard finishes easily…just take a look!

Satin Stainless Steel (SSS).

Still our most popular finish, satin stainless steel is a timeless classic. Highly resistant to corrosion, tarnishing and scratching, satin stainless steel ironmongery will last a lifetime. Another advantage of satin stainless is that it is a low maintenance option, which is perfect for high-usage areas. Thanks to its neutral tones, satin stainless steel works in harmony with a huge range of colour schemes, offering great visuals and practicality.

Polished Stainless Steel (PSS).

Polished stainless steel offers elegance and sophistication thanks to its mirror-like shine. Often chosen to add a luxurious feel to the room, polished stainless steel still offers the same longevity and corrosion resistance as its satin counterpart. The smoothness of the surface makes this type of ironmongery easy to clean – ideal for areas where cleanliness is paramount. Polished stainless is the perfect choice for a range of applications.

Satin Brass (Unlacquered).

Brass provides a blend of warmth, sophistication and durability. Going for a satin finish means you get a softer sheen to the brass, which complements most contemporary colour schemes. As well as good looks, brass is highly corrosion resistant, meaning it’s a great choice for the long term.

Polished Brass (Unlacquered).

With a high-gloss shine, polished brass adds an aura of elegance to any interior. Sharing the same high corrosion and tarnish resistance as its satin brass equivalent, the combination of looks and function mean this finish remains extremely popular. Polished brass is extremely versatile, blending in with most interior design schemes, whether they are ultra-modern or period styles.

Satin Copper Nickel (SCN).

Satin Copper Nickel looks similar to satin stainless steel at first sight, but with one important difference. This 70/30 mixture of copper and nickel is antimicrobial, meaning that it kills bacteria from the first touch. Overall, the aesthetic retains the same pleasing look, but the surface is continually working to protect. This material offers top-quality tarnish and corrosion resistance, so is ideal for moist environments. We only use solid copper-nickel in our ironmongery, meaning that even if the surface is damaged or compromised, the antimicrobial properties are unchanged.

Polyester Powder Coated Finishes (PPC).
