Architectural Ironmongery FAQs

Q. I want to specify your new Arbor range for use in a client`s kitchen and I want the oak mortice knobs and cabinet fittings to match the oak floor – is this possible?

Q. I want to specify your new Arbor range of wooden mortice knobs and lever handles on some old doors which have had lots of different door fittings fitted to in the past. I am worried that the timber of the doors may be too soft to have any new fittings put on.
