4. The advantages of door escutcheons paired with your designer handle

Door escutcheons for AP door handles are distinguished by their precision manufacturing and the solid metal construction of the mounting adapters. The escutcheon cover is press-fitted, giving it a very clean, attractive appearance on the door leaf.

The plates have concealed mounting elements that are not visible after installation, which greatly enhances the aesthetic appearance of the handle. Square, round, oval and rectangular escutcheons are available across the full range of types: the bedroom key, also in cylinder version and in bathroom – WC – privacy turn version.

We asked our interior handles to offer a new aesthetic proposition and high quality. We therefore required the same strengths from the door escutcheons paired with our door handles. If you are looking for modern door escutcheons that are quick to install, you are in the right place! The door handle allows you to open the door, and the escutcheons make it possible to secure or restrict access to a room.

The vast majority of our door escutcheons are made of Zamak (a zinc and aluminium alloy), which guarantees durability. The material used to manufacture the door handle will be identical to that of the associated escutcheon.

In what situations might you need to choose interior door handles? Well, you could be an architect designing a house from scratch and looking to source doors and their handles; you could be a developer or interior designer working on multiple projects who needs a chic, modern look across all their commercial or residential builds; or you could be a private individual who already has their doors but is looking for the perfect handles to match a redesign of their interior décor.
