This hardware was fabricated and finished for a David Adler home in Lake Forest, Illinois.  All the finishing was completed in our shop in Wilmette; finishes include silver, nickel and un-lacquered brass for the exterior.  All hardware is being packaged by door according to our hardware schedule.

The captioned knobs were fabricated for a men’s closet on a local project.  These were turned and then finished by a cabinet maker to coordinate with the furniture in the closet.

These solid turned brass cabinet knobs are for a project we are in the process of completing in Connecticut.  Our antiquing process and the following relieving is all completed by hand (not machine) providing an extremely refined finish.

Take a quick look at these 100+ year old mercury glass door knobs finished at our shop in the Chicago suburb of Wilmette, Illinois.  We can even nickel plate your glass knobs as well.

When we ship a completed project we always try to include an extra parts kit.  This really helps the installers if parts are ever scratched or lost (which is bound to happen on a large project).  We also provide these kits on our larger restoration projects – talk to one of our staff members about this when we finish your project.

 These shower door pulls were fabricated from solid brass and plated in a polished nickel finish.  The hexagon shape compliments the Water-Ware faucets that were selected for this project.  Custom towel bars and robe hooks were also fabricated for this project as well as some fluted shower pulls as well (to be seen in a future posting).

This is the real thing.  Make sure your next pocket door edge pull is from Wilmette Hardware.  The details and quality of this piece are unsurpassed – not the polishing even on the retractable edge pull portion that are concealed when the door is open.

Here are some great photos of Ampthill Plantation in Virginia.  This home was built in 1735 and future additions were designed by Thomas Jefferson.  The home even has mantels from the White House in Washington from the 1800′s.  We had the pleasure to stay with the current owners George and Carol (who are great hosts) and see the wonderful remnants of American architectural history.

This fabulous hardware represents just some of the gems we saw when staying at the Ampthill Plantation.  George and his wife Carol were delightful hosts and the home, barns and acreage were just to die for.  Look for more photos of the estate in future entries…

Take a look at this custom hardware for a home in Georgia.  This hardware will be installed in bathrooms at a private home as shower door pulls, towel bars, robe hooks and more.

Be sure to stop by our shop in Wilmette if you are ever in Chicago.  Better yet call ahead to schedule a tour of our facilities.  We look forward to being your host.
