Brass is an illuminating material, shedding light to the surface it is mounted to as well as to the general area surrounding it. That is why so many homeowners choose to install brass knobs, brass bolts and other brass effects throughout their home. A richly golden color, brass is the easy and affordable alternative to King Midas' touch.

    Just as homes and room décor are multi-faceted, neither is brass' texture one-dimensional. An antique brass knob is majestic, calm and weathered to perfection. On the other hand, a polished brass knob or bolt is smooth and gives off a brilliant glow. Brushed brass knobs offer yet another texture for you to incorporate into your home and enjoy. If you enjoy the strength and dignified presence of brass, but the golden hue will not fit into your color scheme, an oxidized brass effect is perfect solution. Oxidized brass is a manufactured finish that replicates the natural aging process that untouched brass goes through. It is a deep, rich patina hue that many people adore.

    A brass knob is a mainstay item in the home. At every turn, a brass doorknob is there to subtly add class and comfort into your day. A brass bolt is even more durable than it is beautiful, steadfastly keeping you safe at all times. A brass lion door knocker is regal and stately, an impressive welcome when mounted to your front door. If you just want to add a hint of color, a brass push plate gives just enough exposure to get the flavor without overwhelming the other design elements.

    Whether it's antique brass knobs or oxidized brass door knockers, brass is the way to make a bold statement with your door hardware. Shop with brand names such as Smedbo, Martinelli and Acorn to ensure that you are getting the best quality money can buy at prices everyone can afford.
