All of our cabinet knobs and pull handles come with 1" (25mm) screws as standard. If you need a different length or you want some extras just in case, you can purchase different screws in convenient Packs of 10.

We recommend selecting a screw that is about 1/4" (5mm) longer than the panel that it will be going through. We offer metric M4 screws ranging in lengths of 2/3" (16mm) to 1 3/4" (45mm).

If you're unsure about what size screws to choose, we provide 1" (25mm) as our standard size, which works for panels that are 3/4" (20mm) thick.

If you are worried about not choosing the correct length screws, we recommend sourcing a range of them from your local hardware store, Home Depot, Lowes, or Amazon. Simply ask for 'metric M4 machine screws' and choose a length that is about 1/4" or 5mm longer than the depth of the door.

All of our items are sold individually, except where clearly marked as a set. This means you can shop according to your specific project needs, so avoiding wasted products and money.

Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, which can be combined in varying proportions to give it different machinable properties and beautiful tones. Brass does tarnish naturally with age, and this process can speed up if cleaned excessively or with corrosive cleaning products. The process can also speed up if brass is exposed to outdoor conditions like wind and rain.

We recommend cleaning your hardware with warm soapy water and a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive towels, sponges, cleaning sprays, bleach and hand sanitizers.

Our solid brass handles are coated with a clear protective lacquer, however over time will still age naturally.

We offer a 10 year mechanical warranty on all of our products. Note that products made from solid brass will naturally tarnish over time and this process could accelerate if the hardware is not cared for properly.

Each product has a downloadable technical specification in the dimensions section on the product page.

There is also some installation information right below the products page.

We advise that all of our hardware is cleaned with warm soapy water, along with a gentle cloth. Avoid abrasive towels, sponges, cleaning sprays, bleach and hand sanitisers.

Proposition 65 requires businesses, like us, to provide warnings to Californians about significant exposures to chemicals that cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Our brass cabinet hardware contains very low levels of lead (between 1 and 3%). Whilst this small tolerance is considered safe by industry standards across most of the globe, the California Proposition 65 law requires us to warn Californians of the potential dangers of having these products in your home. Where necessary, we will flag the below message on all products that contain lead:

WARNING: This product can expose you to chemicals including lead, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
