Heritage Brass - Polished Chrome

Chrome Door Handles, Kitchen Handles and Polished Chrome Door Furniture

Heritage Brass polished chrome is a range of over 1,000 solid brass door handles, door knobs, kitchen handles, cabinet knobs, hinges, window fittings and accessories by M.Marcus, all with the same bright, mirror polished chrome finish. M.Marcus describes it as a modern finish that combines low maintenance with easy cleaning, and its reflective surface works with almost any colour scheme, from white and grey kitchens to dark painted doors.

Shop all polished chrome door handles and knobs, or by type: chrome door handles on backplate, chrome door handles on rose, chrome mortice knobs and chrome door pull handles.

Chrome Kitchen and Cabinet Handles

The polished chrome kitchen and cabinet hardware includes chrome cabinet handles and drawer pulls, chrome cabinet knobs, chrome cup handles and edge pulls, for kitchens, utility rooms, bathroom vanity units and wardrobes.

Front Door, Accessories and Windows

Finish the entrance with chrome front door furniture: door knockers, letterboxes, chrome house numbers and centre door knobs. Add chrome coat hooks, door bolts and the rest of the polished chrome accessories, and match the windows with polished chrome window furniture.

Hinges and Locks

Hang doors on polished chrome hinges. Heritage Brass handles are sold without locks or latches, so choose a lock with a matching faceplate from the York Security polished chrome and nickel range, and see the thumbturn, rack bolt and privacy set in polished chrome locks and latches.

Caring for Polished Chrome

Regularly removing dirt and watermarks with a non-abrasive cloth will help maintain the life of the finish. External fittings will also benefit from a periodic light oiling of springs and moving parts. For a softer, brushed look in the same colour, compare Heritage Brass satin chrome, or see every option in Heritage Brass finishes.

Polished Chrome Questions

Is polished chrome the same as chrome?
Yes. Polished chrome is the bright, mirror chrome finish most people mean by chrome door handles. Satin chrome is the brushed version.

Are Heritage Brass chrome handles solid brass?
Yes. M.Marcus makes the Heritage Brass range from solid brass, which is then given its polished chrome finish.

How do I clean chrome door handles?
Wipe off dirt and watermarks with a soft, non-abrasive cloth. On external doors, lightly oil the springs and moving parts from time to time.

Do the handles come with locks or latches?
No. Heritage Brass handles are sold on their own. The York Security polished chrome and nickel range has latches and locks with a matching faceplate.

Where Polished Chrome Works

A crisp, bright silver. Polished chrome is the most reflective finish in the Heritage Brass range. It picks up light from every direction, so chrome door handles and kitchen handles look clean and sharp against white, grey and black, and add a little sparkle to darker painted doors.

Bathrooms and en suites. Chrome is the natural partner for chrome taps, showers and towel rails. Fit chrome bathroom door handles on backplate, or levers on rose with a separate chrome bathroom thumb turn, and hang towels and robes on chrome robe hooks and coat hooks.

Kitchens. Polished chrome sits comfortably beside stainless steel appliances and chrome or steel taps. Choose from chrome kitchen handles and drawer pulls in bar, D, T-bar, knurled and hammered designs, chrome cupboard knobs, chrome cup handles for Shaker drawers and edge pulls for a near handleless look.

Modern and Art Deco doors. Clean lines suit chrome best. The 200mm plate range in Bauhaus, Gio and Octave, square rose levers and slim chrome door pull handles give a contemporary look, while the reeded Roma, Charlbury and Sutton designs bring an Art Deco feel.

Period homes too. Chrome is not only for modern houses. Traditional chrome door handles on backplate such as Savoy and Lisboa, and chrome mortice knobs such as Chester and Victoria, suit Victorian and 1930s houses with white painted doors.

Texture in chrome. Hammered and knurled versions of the handles, pulls and knobs break up the mirror surface with a pattern that catches the light, a good way to add interest without changing finish.

One finish throughout. Carry polished chrome from the door handles and knobs to the window furniture, hinges and front door furniture, so every room matches.

Choosing and Caring for Polished Chrome

Polished chrome or satin chrome? Both are the same cool silver colour. Satin chrome is brushed to a soft sheen and hides fingermarks well, while polished chrome is a mirror finish that wipes clean quickly. Some homes use polished chrome in bathrooms and satin chrome on busy internal doors.

Polished chrome or polished nickel? Chrome is a cooler, bluer silver. Polished nickel is warmer, and M.Marcus describes it as a living finish that is not coated and will take on an aged patina if it is not buffed. Choose chrome if you want the finish to stay bright with little upkeep.

Matching hinges and locks. Hang doors on polished chrome hinges, including washered, thrust bearing and parliament hinges. Heritage Brass handles are sold without locks, so fit a York Security polished chrome and nickel latch or lock for a matching faceplate.

The front door. The chrome front door furniture page brings together chrome door knockers, letterboxes, chrome house numbers and letters, centre door knobs, bell pushes and a door chain.

Caring for polished chrome. Regularly removing dirt and watermarks with a non-abrasive cloth will help maintain the life of the finish. External fittings will also benefit from a periodic light oiling of springs and moving parts.

Doors, bolts and finishing touches. Add chrome escutcheons, finger plates, door stops, chrome door bolts and flush pulls for sliding doors.

See it before you buy. Heritage Brass polished chrome is on display at our Kendal and Carlisle showrooms. Trade Door Handles is part of T.H. Wiggans Ironmongery, trading since 1976, and we help trade customers with project quantities.

More Polished Chrome Questions

What is the difference between polished chrome and polished nickel?

Chrome is a cooler, bluer silver that stays bright with little upkeep. Polished nickel is warmer and, as a living finish, is not coated, so it will take on an aged patina unless it is buffed.

Is polished chrome or satin chrome better for a busy family home?

Satin chrome hides fingermarks better because of its brushed surface. Polished chrome shows marks more but wipes clean quickly with a soft cloth.

Do you sell chrome robe hooks for bathrooms?

Yes. The polished chrome coat hooks include single and double robe hooks, hat and coat hooks and a row of hooks on a plate.

Can I get chrome hinges and locks to match?

Yes. There are polished chrome hinges in washered, thrust bearing and parliament designs, and York Security locks and latches with a polished chrome faceplate.

What chrome front door furniture is there?

Door knockers, letterboxes and interior flaps, house numbers and letters, centre door knobs, bell pushes and a door chain, all in polished chrome.
