Hip-height detail of a monkey-tail handle and mortice escutcheon on a closed steel leaf, shallow depth of field, a thumb resting on the lever so the scale and the wear on the aged brass both read.

Hardware
Locks, hinges and handles morticed into the steel before welding, so they are confirmed five weeks before install.

The whole hardware square on and filling the frame, in the single leaf, latch only configuration, shot level in flat overcast light against a plain wall so the proportion and the frame-to-glass ratio can be read without perspective.

Close detail of the meeting line at eye level in raking light, tight enough that the joint and the seal are legible, with the background thrown out of focus.
1:1
The hand-level detail: monkey-tail handle photographed in use on the aged brass finish, close enough to show the surface texture and the fixing, with a hand on the handle for scale.

From inside the room looking out through the hardware, the unit open where it opens, late afternoon light on the floor, so the product is seen the way it is lived with rather than the way it is sold.

The hardware at dusk from outside, closed, the room lit behind the glass, so the finish and the glass line read against the light.

Specifications & options
Hardware
Description
Hardware on steel is fitted into the section, not onto it, so it is drawn before the frame is welded. Internal leaves take butt or pivot hinges and a roller catch or a 55 mm backset mortice latch. External doors take a 5-point espagnolette, a TS007 3-star cylinder and hinges rated to 120 kg a leaf, tested to 200,000 cycles. Handles come as monkey-tail, lever on rose, T-bar or flush pull, in aged brass, antique bronze, blackened steel, satin nickel or polished chrome.
Specify it when
Confirm this five weeks before install, and earlier if you want a specific handle, because the lock case and hinge positions are cut into the frame before it reaches the coating line.

Wide, dead-straight-on shot of a five-bay steel screen with central double doors and a top light in a bare plaster room, raking morning side light picking out the 25 mm sightlines and the shadow gaps at the mullions.

Configurations
Tight angled shot straight through two adjacent panes in one steel screen, clear on the left and reeded on the right, with a hand held flat behind the glass so the difference in distortion reads at a glance.

Glass
Macro of one welded frame corner on grey concrete where the matt black powder coat has been ground back through to the galvanising, the bright zinc spangle sitting hard against the RAL 9005 either side of the cut.
