Door Bells and knockers are most likely as old as doors themselves. First we will be discussing mechanical doorbells  prior to the use of electricity and then electric pushbutton doorbells . Here at Vintage Hardware we eventually settled on two styles of mechanical doorbells . During the industrial revolutions, prices for Doorbells became reasonable for the average home owner.

 Now most people, perhaps even you, don’t pay much attention to this once highly sought out innovation. Although we have electric door bells today, one of the most favored is the mechanical doorbell . Be it twist or lever, these bells have always held a soft spot, reminding you of the one your parents had one their house while you were growing up, or the one on grandmas front door.

We carry two standard vintage reproduction mechanical doorbell types: the twist-handle doorbell style, and the push-lever doorbell style . The turning handle creates a bicycle-like bell, and the push-lever doorbell makes a single strong "ship's bell" per push.

 In the Victorian era the more ornate and decorated your doorbell was the higher status you most likely held. Victorians often used an ornate bell on the front door for guests, and a simpler, different sounding bell on the back door, for deliveries.

Our Victorian pattern twist handle doorbell is lost wax cast in solid brass, the same method used in jewelry making. This bell is high quality and will last generations.  It's available in a polished brass or several antiqued finishes. This Mechanical Twist bell is beautifully detailed with a high clarity Victorian pattern. This piece goes on the inside of the door, while a separate twist bell operator goes on the exterior of the door. The decorative nature of the inside bell makes it as beautiful as fine art or ”house jewelry.”

The doorbell operator that activates this bell is sold separately, in case you may have an original twist operator and to provide a wider selection of operator styles. If you would like a reproduction twist doorbell operator , we have four different styles, depending on your taste from very simple to very ornate.

Vintage Hardware & Lighting manufactures pocket door hardware for single pocket doors or double pocket doors. Look for  Victorian , Windsor , Roanoke , Arts & Crafts , and plain designs to suit every style decor. We have reproduced many historically significant pieces for your accurate restoration projects, including R&E and Eastlake pocket door handles.

Designed more than one hundred years ago as space savers, pocket doors became very popular in the Victorian style homes of the late eighteen and early nineteen hundreds. Used primarily as entrances to stately libraries, elaborate dining areas, or even a basic sitting room. Most guests in homes in that era never made it past the first parlor, maybe even lucky enough to reach the second parlor. People were very private and did not want their affairs easily overheard.These room dividers continued to increase in popularity until seemingly dropping completely from the architects planning boards.

Much speculation surrounds the disappearance of the pocket door at that time, there are several factors involved. Most of the hardware manufactures producing pocket door hardware went out of business, and most likely the end of pocket door use came down to the quality of hardware available. Home owners were tired of tired of creaking, jamming in the walls, and doors coming off the tracks, as their home hardware aged. We reproduce only the best antique pocket door hardware available in the last 100 years. 

 
The Arts & Crafts Movement was the artisans' response to the Industrial Revolution. They encouraged customers to buy handmade goods, produced using local materials. Also known as Craftsman style, Gustav Stickley and the company that bore his name are credited for putting Arts & Crafts into the American culture.

These lost wax cast Arts and Crafts pocket door handles are originally circa 1920, available with or without a keyhole. Solid brass, copper coated and darkened.

See our full line of reproduced Arts and Crafts style hardware and Arts and Crafts style lighting .

 
PF Corbin was a high end manufacturer during the Victorian era. His name assured quality, so as with many fine products, he had many imitators. One of his most popular and highly detailed patterns was "Roanoke ". Our reproduction is taken from a quality original antique.

This is the small Roanoke pocket door handle with a keyhole. If you are thinking outside the box, a small handle like this works well on sliding door furniture, such as a credenza, that you would like to lock. We also offer this Roanoke pocket door handle without a keyhole .

The Roanoke pattern was so popular that it had its imitators. While these plates are very pretty, and matching to Roanoke, they were not made by Corbin but by a competitor. Competitors walked a fine line to not infringe on Corbin's design patent. At first glance, who could tell? And across the room from each other - impossible.
Victorians could use the high end products in public parlors and dining rooms, and the less costly hardware in their private rooms.

We made these imitation Roanoke pocket door handles because they were complementary and were larger pocket door plates. The imitation Roanoke pocket door handle with out a keyhole could also be used as a large sash lift. Choose from solid un-lacquered brass, or one of our custom applied finishes.

Eastlake was a British architect and furniture designer. Trained by the architect Philip Hardwick, he popularized William Morris's notions of decorative arts in the Arts and Crafts style, becoming one of the principal exponents of the revived "Early English" or "Modern Gothic Style" popular in Victorian architecture. Eastlake was a supporter of the Arts & Crafts Movement, believing in local craftsmanship and materials. His shallow, simple lines of decoration were intended to make cleaning easier. These Solid lost wax cast brass Eastlake pocket door handles match our eastlake style hardware , and add a lovely detail to your doors. These pocket door handles are marvelous quality, with fine detail that comes from a lovely antique original. Available with or with out keyholes.

Reading Hardware Company introduced a popular pattern circa 1885, called Windsor . It is very attractive antique home hardware , and many items were made to match. We present re-creations, lost wax cast from antiques that have been collected over many years. Our Windsor home hardware items are all "high end" quality brass and workmanship. You'll be amazed at the weight and detail when you see your order in person. This Windsor pattern pocket door handle is solid cast brass, and
available in the darkened "antique" finish, and in the nickel plated
brass finish, also available without a key hole.

R & E stands for Russell & Erwin . Before 1870, American door hardware was rather mundane. Our line of R&E hardware is carefully reproduced by 14 skilled bronze and jewelry craftsmen. These beautiful items are Lost Wax cast in Silicon Bronze, specially treated to resemble old patina hardware, then hand waxed. These reproductions are so fine they have fooled historical societies, so we protect genuine antiques by marking ours with an "A". Every item here is taken from an original antique sample, complete in every detail.

This gorgeous R & E pocket door plate , has often been claimed to be the most outstanding pocket
door handle that have ever been produced.

These simple Fine, heavily wrought, not stamped, recessed plain pocket door handles. Although the Victorians would use fancy handles in the rooms that the public visited, like the parlor and dining room, this would have been used in the private rooms. Also a frequent choice for cottages, farmhouse, and arts & crafts bungalows. This style is popular with mid-century modern restorations also. We also make a mortised pocket door pull for easy movement of the door when fully pushed back into the wall.

Looking for the replacement brass casters or caster cups without wheels for that special piece of furniture that you just can’t seem to find anywhere else?

Vintage Hardware Lighting  recasts most of the popular styles and sizes of chair caster and chair terminal , table leg caster and table leg terminal , and even a rubber wheel tea trolley caster . Our wheel casters include brass, porcelain, and wooden wheel casters .

Our selection of casters and toe caps come in a solid brass that is also offered in a few different finishes, antique brass finish, oil rubbed bronze finish, and pewter finish, some available in nickel plated brass.
Many of our casters will snap into the old sleeves left in old furniture.
 
These solid brass furniture toe caps protect your furniture from damage. They come in a selection of different sizes, and since they are sand cast there are "slight" variations from each casting. Casting creates a thicker metal cup as opposed to stamped brass.
  Moving furniture on carpet requires a hard wheel in order to smoothly roll; our porcelain casters and brass casters  work great and allow your furniture to glide across the floor for easy moving.

Antique Casters Weren't really made for "Big" moves; they were mainly for moving a few feet here and there for cleaning and to hold wooden legs up off the floor to keep them from rotting when water was left after mopping. Our porcelain and brass casters work well on wood floors, but again are not meant for frequent moves.
 
Both of our wooden wheel casters (C-4  & C-4A ) are identical to most used circa 1900. Wooded wheel casters weren't big in America during that time, and were rarely seen on furniture aside from British imports. They were mainly used in Europe. These wooden wheel casters come complete with steel sleeve but many times these  casters will snap into the old sleeves still in old furniture.

Pictured is our popular rubber wheel caster , made for small table and tea trolleys, because the size of the wheel is so large, it smoothly glides over the floor. With soft rubber wheels there's no worry about scratching your fine hard wood floors.

vintage Hardware also reproduces brass toe caps and  brass cup casters , finer  casters cannot be found. Carefully sand cast with precision cores and finished through 5 processes. Internal measurements for the toe cap casters can very slightly due to the nature of sand casting. Solid, high polish brass finish or an antique finish to blend with older existing hardware.

Our Cup Casters  are available in round and square fittings and come in different sizes. These style casters are useful when it comes to installation.   Just pop them on with out the worry of drilling out holes or damaging or cracking the legs.

Big and beautiful, this large reproduction claw toe cap uses a 3" solid GLASS ball--unlike  cheap copies elsewhere that use a plastic ball. Glass ball has bubbles and swirls because it is hand poured just like the antique ones. Made for decoration, this toe cap is grand and really puts that extra detail into any piece of furniture.

This small antique reproduction claw toe cup , with real glass ball insert, tapered leg terminal  is available in two sizes and adorned with a mythological face, great for table legs and side tables. Like most of our brass antique reproduction hardware, the smaller claw toe cap can be ordered in an antique brass finish to blend with older existing furniture hardware

This Eastlake Windsor Pattern lever door bell is completely lost wax cast (same method as fine jewelry-making). This bell is mounted on the interior side of a door, and is then activated by a lever handle on the outside of the door. Standard finish is the hi-lo brass finish, or darker oil rubbed bronze finish is available. Standard Hi-Lo finish will blend with existing old hardware. The matching lever handle to activate this bell is sold separately, in case you may already have an original lever handle.

The Lost Wax cast brass Windsor pattern door push plate is popular. Even outside the Windsor suite, this could stand alone for its beauty & clarity of detail.
