The sight of corroded, failing door hardware is becoming increasingly common on homes all over the country. And while the appearance is unappealing for homeowners, it’s even more unappealing for installers needing to fit replacements when the hardware hasn’t lived up to its guarantee or expectation.
But for customers of Trojan, the trouble caused by failing hardware can be a thing of the past, thanks to the company’s suite of all stainless steel door furniture. Tony Chadwick, the Trojan Group Managing Director, says, “Zinc-based plated products very often meet Class 4 corrosion resistance standards, but the fact is that standard isn’t sufficient any longer. Salt, acid erosion and our increasingly harsh winters mean that many products are failing much more quickly than they used to. Stainless steel brings back peace of mind for customers – and we’re so confident in its abilities to withstand corrosion that all products in the range come with a 25 year guarantee.”
The Trojan stainless steel door furniture range comprises a handle, letter plate, door knocker, numerals and flag hinges. Each item is available at three price points, making stainless steel an option for every project, no matter what its budget. The Elite range has stainless steel external and internal faces; the Premium range has stainless steel external faces and zinc chrome or gold PVD inner faces and the Standard range has stainless steel external faces and white or black inner faces.
Tony says, “Sales of our stainless steel range have grown by 300% in the past year. I think it’s proof that installers want to fit guaranteed products that will give their customers complete peace of mind – which is exactly what the range offers.”
