Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Does "Solid Brass" mean the handle is rust-proof? Yes. Brass is a non-ferrous metal, meaning it does not contain iron and is inherently resistant to rust and corrosion. Unlike cheaper plated handles, solid brass will not peel or flake, making it an excellent choice for long-term durability in the South African climate.

2. Can these handles be used on external doors? While solid brass is highly durable, the Satin Brass finish is lacquered for interior use. For external doors exposed to direct rain and harsh sunlight, we recommend specialized exterior-grade hardware to prevent the finish from weathering prematurely.

3. What is the difference between Satin Brass and Polished Brass? Polished Brass has a high-shine, mirror-like finish. Satin Brass (this model) has a brushed, matte appearance. It offers a more contemporary "muted gold" look and is much better at hiding fingerprints and water spots.

4. Will these handles fit my existing door locks? This set features a standard Keyhole (KH) profile. It is designed to work with most standard interior sash locks. If you are replacing existing handles, ensure your current lock uses a standard keyhole and not a cylinder (Euro) or privacy turn-knob.

5. How should I clean and maintain the Satin Brass finish? To preserve the protective lacquer, simply wipe the handles with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, polishes, or chemical solvents, as these can strip the finish and cause the brass to tarnish over time.
