Carlisle Brass - Door Handles & Knobs

Carlisle Brass Door Handles on Backplate remain one of the most popular choices for both homeowners and trade professionals. These handles combine a lever with a backplate, which not only enhances the appearance of the door but also covers any existing fixing holes — a major advantage when renovating older doors.

They are available in multiple styles:

• Lever lock backplates for internal and external security doors
• Bathroom privacy backplates with integrated turn and release
• Latch-only backplates for simple passage doors

Finishes range from polished chrome, satin chrome, polished brass, antique brass, satin nickel, matt black, and modern PVD finishes that offer long-lasting durability. Their versatility means they work just as well in family homes as they do in hotels, offices, and educational buildings.

When paired with matching hinges and locks & latches, Carlisle Brass backplate handles deliver both style and performance, making them a reliable choice for traditional and modern interiors across the UK.

Carlisle Brass Door Handles on Rose are ideal for design-conscious spaces. Their compact rose — often round, square, or concealed — provides a cleaner, more contemporary look than a backplate.

Key advantages include:

• Flexibility – pair with escutcheons or thumbturns for privacy or security
• Minimalist design – perfect for modern apartments and office fit-outs
• Finish variety – available in matt black, satin brass, polished chrome, antique brass, and nickel

These handles are particularly popular in new builds, commercial developments, and high-end residential projects where a modern finish is required. Designers also value their ability to mix and match with Carlisle Brass accessories for a unified look.

Carlisle Brass Mortice Knobs are a timeless addition to properties with a traditional or boutique feel. As part of the wider range of Carlisle Brass door knobs, their round or mushroom-shaped designs are often specified for Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian houses where authenticity and elegance matter most.

Available in polished brass, polished chrome, satin nickel, antique brass, and black finishes, these knobs provide flexibility for both heritage restoration projects and modern reinterpretations. They remain a popular choice in boutique hotels, listed buildings, and bespoke residential refurbishments.

For best performance, mortice knobs should be paired with deep-case latches to avoid knuckle scraping and ensure smooth operation. When combined with matching locks & latches, they deliver a complete and reliable door solution.

The Carlisle Brass Rim Knobs collection is crafted for use with traditional rim locks, a feature commonly found in cottages, farmhouses, and listed buildings. These knobs bring authenticity and charm to restoration projects while maintaining durability for modern living.

Available in solid brass, antique brass, polished chrome, black, and satin finishes, rim knobs remain a firm favourite with conservation projects and interior designers working on character properties. Their compact, surface-mounted style means they are easy to install and suit doors where a mortice lock isn’t practical.

Carlisle Brass Pull Handles are engineered to deliver both function and style, making them a trusted choice for heavy-use residential doors and demanding commercial environments.

We also offer back-to-back options, bolt-fix pull handles, and rose-fix pull handle solutions, giving flexibility for a wide variety of installations.
