Can I Change My Door Hardware Finish

6 years ago

I am most likely purchasing a fiberglass door by Neumadoor. However I do not like their hardware options. Emtek offers a some better choices specifically for Neumadoor but they are not available with a gold/brass finish. Any suggestions on how or where I could have the hardware refinished? The material options are stainless or sandcastle bronze. Note: this is for my front door in Florida.

Thank you.

Stainless is the only thing that will stand up to salt breezes. Forget doing anything else unless you want to replace hardware every 2-3 years.

Would an auto paint finish work?

"Would an auto paint finish work?"

For about 15 minutes, max. There has to be other companies that make hardware that is compatible with Neuma Doors. Where have you looked? Who have you asked? What style handles & escutcheon are you looking for?
