How to Choose From The Anvil Accessories

From The Anvil accessories are made to match its door and window furniture, so start with the finish already on your doors. These are the main things to check.

1. The finish: Black, Pewter and Beeswax for blacksmith pieces such as door bolts, curtain poles and handrail brackets; brass, bronze, chrome and nickel for coat hooks, shelf brackets and brass door bolts.

2. Shelves: pick a shelf bracket whose projection suits the shelf depth: 250mm or 200mm for the Tyne, Chalfont and Apperley, 200mm or 150mm for the Barton and Abingdon. For adjustable shelving use bookcase strip and studs.

3. Curtains: allow at least 300mm more than the window width for the pole, and four curtain rings per 300mm of pole. Finish the ends with curtain finials.

4. Doors: choose a straight or cranked bolt to suit the frame, a flush or French door bolt for double doors, and a door threshold or door sill to suit the way the door opens and the under-door gap.

5. Fixings: most pieces come with matching stainless steel wood screws. For replacements, see the finish-matched screws in packs of 25.
