Keeping the outside of a home neat and tidy not only provides a nice place for homeowners to come back to, but it can also add up to 3% to the property price*. One of the ways this can be achieved is through coordinated door hardware. The suited door hardware collection from ARRONE, a HOPPE brand, has been designed to help door manufacturers easily source high-quality ironmongery that complements both contemporary and traditional door designs. There are five variations of pull handles included in the range providing the perfect contemporary twist for any home. Pull handles have proved a popular choice for many homeowners, with some stockists reporting that sales have doubled in the past year. The AR3626 entrance door pull handle comes in three different fixing distance options: 600mm, 1200mm and 1800mm. Depending on the fixing distance, bolt fix or back-to-back fixing options to suit timber doors are available. The elegant pillar fix design comes in a satin stainless steel finish which is sure to complete the look. Selected ARRONE door handles, knockers, letter plates and numerals are also part of the suited range and are available in seven finishes – polished brass effect, polished chrome effect, satin chrome effect, anthracite grey, graphite, black and white. At the heart of the collection is the AR7550 lever handle which has a 10.7mm backplate depth. The standard size of the back plate means it will cover the majority of lock applications, to make replacing existing handles easy. The AR7550 handle has been tested to 200,000 cycles and has a 10-year mechanical operation guarantee, as long as assembly and maintenance guidelines are followed. It has also achieved the highest corrosion resistance grade under BS EN 1670 making it suitable for use in exposed marine atmospheres.
