Creating a beautiful home demands a lot of decisions - from flooring, decor, lighting up to finer details like door hardware. Although door handles can be overlooked, this finishing touch is instrumental in tying a house together. When choosing door hardware for your renovation or new home it is important to take a considered approach, to ensure you make the right decision. Your effort and investment will be with you for years.
Here are five things to consider to ensure you make the right choice and get the look you are after.
The Overall Look for your Home
To ensure your choice of new door handles makes sense, first you need to decide on the overall look across your home. Taking an interior design approach, think about the overall look, this could be classic or modern, or a mixture of styles with your own personal touch, with the colours and designs to fit.
Colour
Selecting the same colour for fittings across your home will bring a consistent and considered look. It’s a good idea to explore matching the colour of your door handles and tapware. Even window frames can be considered in this process. Across Europe, north America and Australia, black door handles have been ‘on-trend’ and interest in this finish continues to be very popular.
Having a black door handle gives your home a sleek and modern feel. Matte black finishes are strikingly sophisticated and have a direct tie to technology. Black door handle pairs well with a variety of colors, whether it’s a typical plain white or brown, it can enhance any door and will give a new and remarkable bold appeal. Lemaar offers a great range of black door handles that you can choose from.
