Apr 18, 2025
1 min read

Steel Window Fittings has launched new high-quality steel window and door handles. The 1040 door handle joins the company’s existing range and features the popular classic lever-lever configuration with anti-droop technology, while boasting a subtle, ornamental appearance for heritage homes, listed buildings or properties designed with a classic touch. 

The handle is available on any of SWF’s existing backplates – Rose, Oblong or Long – allowing for flexibility when choosing a style that complements a particular property. The handle can be paired with escutcheons for key-locking capabilities.

SWF’s standard finish colours include Satin Chrome, Antique Black, Antique Brass, Gun Metal, ORB or RTD, but RAL colours can be facilitated for matching with coloured frames.
