Hardware - A Little Bling Never Hurt!

If you want your house to stand out among the hundreds for sale, or just want to upscale the image of your house, look at the hardware you currently have.




















Hardware includes:



  • door knobs

  • cabinet/drawer pulls and knobs

  • door bumpers

  • levers

  • faucets

  • hinges

  • push/kick plates

  • hooks

  • switch plates

Determine the finish (e.g. bronze, chrome, brass, iron, stainless, nickle...) that best complements the house/condo. Ideally you want the finish to be consistent throughout, although some different finishes can complement each other if not overdone.

Old pieces can be restored or purchased at architectural salvage shops, or new hardware can be purchased, the point is to make them an upgrade from the norm.

Traditional, transitional, contemporary, modern...select a style and add that bling!
