Black luxe Providing a neutral backdrop to any design, black continues to be a popular colour choice for ironmongery products. Whether paired with bright colours or blended with dark and dramatic features, door hardware solutions in this colour can be used to create a sophisticated finish that never goes out of style. A matt black finish elevates this shade further to offer customers a sumptuous style that can happily sit alongside other materials such as metallics, wood and stone.
