These ensure privacy, security, and a coordinated look throughout.

For front entrances, Carlisle Brass offers an extensive collection of door knockers, centre door knobs, letter plates with matching inner flaps, and even door viewers, chains, and guards to enhance security.

Carlisle Brass Hinges

The Carlisle Brass hinge collection is one of the most comprehensive ranges in the UK, covering everything from standard interior fittings to fire-rated and security hinges for demanding applications. Popular choices include ball bearing hinges, designed for heavy or frequently used doors where smooth operation and durability are essential, and washered hinges, ideal for internal timber doors.

Beyond these, Carlisle Brass also supplies solid drawn hinges, cabinet hinges, H hinges, finial hinges, dummy hinges, and concealed (3D) hinges. Concealed hinges are especially popular in modern projects, where designers want seamless hidden doors within wall panelling.

Hinges are available in a full range of sizes and grades to suit every project. Standard 3" x 2" hinges are commonly used on internal doors around 35mm thick, while 4" x 3" hinges are suited to external and fire doors. For fire safety, Carlisle Brass manufactures Grade 11, 13, and 14 hinges, all compliant with UK standards. While many hinges are sold in pairs, fitting three hinges per door is recommended for stability and long-term performance.

Specialist options include security hinges, lift-off hinges, and ligature-resistant hinges for healthcare and commercial environments where safety is critical.

Manufactured in brass, steel, and stainless steel, Carlisle Brass hinges provide varying levels of wear resistance and weather protection. Finishes such as polished chrome, satin chrome, polished brass, satin brass, antique brass, and matt black allow specifiers to perfectly match with door handles & knobs, locks & latches, and accessories.

Carlisle Brass Hardware Accessories

The Carlisle Brass accessories collection covers the finishing touches that complete both residential and commercial projects. These may be small items, but they are vital for functionality, safety, and day-to-day convenience.

The range includes door bolts in surface-mounted and flush-fitting options, ideal for securing internal doors, French doors, and windows. Popular types such as straight bolts, cranked bolts, flush bolts, and barrel bolts provide flexible solutions for added privacy and security. Carlisle Brass also produces specialist fire-rated and intumescent accessories, helping doors comply with current UK building regulations.

For ventilation and practicality, cabin hooks are available in multiple lengths, allowing airflow while preventing doors from slamming shut. Handrail brackets, vents, push plates, and kick plates are also part of the range, commonly used in schools, hotels, offices, and other high-traffic environments.

In living spaces, coat hooks, hat & coat hooks, and robe hooks provide essential storage. For bathrooms, Carlisle Brass offers a coordinated range of toilet roll holders, towel rails, and robe hooks, designed to match with wider hardware finishes.

Door stops are another important element, protecting walls and skirting boards from damage. Carlisle Brass supplies both floor-mounted and wall-mounted stops, ensuring suitability for any installation.

Carlisle Brass Locks & Latches

The Carlisle Brass locks and latches collection provides solutions for every type of door — from standard internal rooms to high-security external entrances. Built to UK standards and tested for long-term performance, many models are BS certified, ensuring compliance with building regulations and home insurance requirements.

A large proportion of the locking products are manufactured under the EuroSpec sub-brand, trusted nationwide for its project-grade durability in both residential and commercial settings.

Core Lock & Latch Types

  • Tubular latches — the most common internal option, available in 2.5" or 3" backsets. Longer latches are recommended for use with mortice knobs.
  • Bathroom locks & tubular deadbolts — paired with thumb turns and fittings for privacy and security.
  • Euro profile sash locks and deadlocks — robust solutions for front doors, available in multiple case sizes and finishes.
  • DIN locks — including night latches and escape locks, widely specified for schools, hospitals, hotels, and public buildings.
  • Lever locks (2, 3, and 5 lever) — suitable for both internal and external doors, with 5-lever BS3621-rated locks required for many UK insurance policies.
  • Upright latches & flat latches — compact solutions for specialist joinery and bespoke applications.

Installation & Design Details

Most locks and latches come with square faceplates, the UK standard. Carlisle Brass also produces radius plate locks and latches, though not all lock types are compatible. Professional advice is recommended for these installations.

Finishes & Materials

Carlisle Brass supplies locks and latches in finishes that coordinate with door handles & knobs, hinges, and accessories. While stainless steel and silver finishes remain popular, matt black, satin brass, and antique brass are increasingly specified in modern interior design schemes.

With one of the widest lock and latch ranges in the UK, Carlisle Brass ensures there is a solution for every budget, project type, and design preference.
