What are Heritage Brass finish collections?

Heritage Brass finish collections group matching ironmongery and hardware by finish, making it easier to coordinate door and cabinet hardware across a property in tones such as Matt Bronze, Antique Brass, Satin Nickel, Polished Nickel and Satin Brass.

Is Heritage Brass hardware made from solid brass?

Many Heritage Brass products are produced using hot forged brass, a process that strengthens the metal and supports a premium, consistent finish across matching hardware.

Which finish is best for a modern interior: Satin Brass or Polished Nickel?

Satin Brass offers a warmer, contemporary look with a softer sheen, while Polished Nickel is brighter and more reflective for a higher-contrast, premium feel. The best choice depends on your interior style and surrounding materials.

Do matt and satin finishes show fingerprints less than polished finishes?

In general, matt and satin finishes tend to disguise fingerprints and day-to-day marks better than highly polished finishes, which can show smudges more easily under strong light.

Can I match Heritage Brass finishes across multiple doors and rooms?

Yes. Finish collections are designed to help you keep a consistent look across a home or commercial project by matching the same finish across key hardware such as handles, knobs and other ironmongery.

Do you deliver Heritage Brass products across the UK?

Yes. Trade Door Handles supplies Heritage Brass products nationwide across the UK, including cities such as London, Manchester and Birmingham, with delivery options available at checkout depending on stock and product type.

Welcome to Trade Door Handles. This collection showcases Heritage Brass finish collections – a premium range of architectural hardware and ironmongery made using hot forged solid brass.

Why Heritage Brass stands out in the UK

Heritage Brass has become a go-to choice for homeowners, trades, and commercial installers who want the look and feel of genuine brass hardware, with dependable availability and a finish that performs in real-world use. This makes the range ideal for upgrades, refurbishments, and specification where appearance and durability both matter.

From long lead-times to fast UK supply

Historically, customers searching for solid brass ironmongery in distinctive finishes such as Satin Brass or Matt Bronze often faced limited choice, premium pricing, and typical lead times of 4–6 weeks for bespoke runs. Heritage Brass helped bridge that gap by introducing an expanded finish palette while maintaining strong UK availability.

What you’ll typically use Heritage Brass finishes for

These finishes are commonly chosen for consistent design across key touchpoints in the home or workplace – for example, coordinating door handles, knobs, latches, bathroom turns, escutcheons, cabinet hardware, and other architectural ironmongery. Selecting a single finish range helps create a cohesive, “designed” look across rooms, floors, or entire buildings.

Choosing the right finish

If you want a finish that hides fingerprints and everyday marks, satin and matt finishes are often preferred. If your project calls for a statement look, polished finishes can bring brightness and contrast to doors and joinery. For renovations and period properties, Antique Brass remains a strong choice for warmth and character.
