Aarti — Finish Lead
Sets the brushing discipline and tests sheen against light. Keeper of straight strokes and quiet planes.
Our Craft — From Ingot to Handle
We cut noise out of hardware. From alloy casting to hand brushing, each station keeps the same intent: predictable torque at the hand and planes that age with grace. Scroll the stations; the stitch line fills as milestones come into view.
-
Alloy Casting. Copper/zinc blend tuned for strength, colour and machinability. -
CNC Milling. Lever blanks cut inside tight tolerances — zero play at the spindle. -
Hand Brushing. Directional grain softens highlights; planes stay disciplined.
The same people who prototype our grips train new operators, so intent survives scale. We log torque and cycle counts at QC; when something drifts, fixtures are recut and retried before the next lot. For architects, this means fewer surprises on handover and calmer rooms on first occupancy.
Heat & Hammer — Forging the Core
Forging compacts grain and sets strength for a lifetime of pulls. Move the temperature — the hot field reveals the forged frame beneath. We keep heat high, dwell short, and quench clean so bushings and spindles stay true.
Higher heat grows the reveal; the core forms under pressure. On architectural lines we control soak to avoid grain wash — that’s why edges wear gracefully instead of pitting.
Finish Bench — Stroke to See Grain
Brushed brass, matte black and satin nickel read differently under light. Rotate the stroke and adjust sheen — the overlay shows how grain direction and finish discipline the plane.
- Brushed Brass — warm highlight; grain hides micro-wear at edges.
- Matte Black — glare down corridors; fingerprints fade with a dry cloth.
- Satin Nickel — neutral mid-tone; keep cleaning straight to avoid swirl marks.
Assembly Bench — Torque Proof
We build intent into the handle, not around it. Preload the spring, mate the spindle and torque to spec — the dial shows how the feel rises at the latch. Turn the slider; steps light up when you’re in range.
Spec 2.2–2.8

- Preload return spring
- Mate spindle & rose
- Torque fasteners to spec
- Verify drop & latch feel
We torque every pair, log outliers and recut fixtures when drift appears. Because the same geometry travels across lines, intent survives scale — the first pull feels inevitable, not forced.

QC Bench — What Pass Looks Like
We combine simple rigs and disciplined notes. Press Run — indicators fire in sequence; the bar fills as checks complete. Fail any step and the lot is held for rework.
- Finish integrity
- Bushing play
- Spindle fit
- Latch feel
Idle
Notes travel with cartons, not inboxes. On hospitality floors we bias quiet strikes and matched hinges; apartments ship flat-numbered sets so fitters meet the same geometry all day.
Packing & Handover — Flat Numbers
One carton per apartment keeps site calm. Enter floors and units per floor — we show total sets, cartons required (8 sets each) and how the last carton fills. Labels carry flat numbers for handover.
Total sets: 144 · Cartons: 18 · Last carton: 0/8
Boxes highlight as the last carton fills; earlier cartons ship full.
Material & Finish Crosswalk — Supply Matrix
Architects love simple choices that survive procurement. Tick the matrix: pick the hardware family down the left, then the finish across the top. Selected cells build a spec note you can copy to your BOQ.

We keep geometry common across families, so the hand learns once. Brass warms thresholds; black calms long corridors; nickel stays neutral against pale woods; bronze adds depth on hospitality floors.
Warranty & Care — Service Envelope
Finish integrity and bushing life depend more on cleaning than on chemistry. Choose environment and use case — we’ll give a care interval and a warranty summary that fits Indian projects.
Recommended interval: Every 6–8 weeks. Use a dry cloth first; neutral cleaner only when needed. Avoid scouring pads and circular motion on nickel.
Finish integrity under normal residential and hospitality use; bushings and spindle fit against play.
Abrasives, acid cleaners, paint removers, site damage and misuse. In coastal air, rinsing after salt exposure
is required before a claim.
Dry cloth first. If needed: neutral cleaner on soft cloth, straight strokes along the grain; rinse and dry.
Keep door viewers, stops and hinges in the same finish for a clean sightline.
Bars reflect typical exposure. Slider fine-tunes the interval above.
Exploded Handle — What Lives Inside
A calm grip comes from inside the assembly — spindle fit, return spring and a disciplined rose. Tap a part below the image to learn what it does in everyday use.

The spindle carries torque, the spring returns the lever, and the concealed rose keeps the sightline clean.
Lead Times — From Casting to Handover
Below are typical windows for Indian projects. Batch size and the chosen finish line move the schedule most; casting and QC stay steady. Times reflect stocked alloys and our regular tool sets; complex custom work extends the finish window.
Expedited lots (hospitality only) are occasionally available at –20% time if door schedules are confirmed before casting; cartons still ship flat-numbered and QC signs off per lot.

Custom Studio — Reference Looks
Our lines share one grip geometry so the hand learns once. Below are three reference specs used most often in Indian projects — each keeps doors calm across floors and corridors.
- Linear + round rose, brushed brass. Warm highlight without noise; reads premium in lobbies and suites.
- Arc + concealed rose, matte black. Quiet glare and soft planes; corridors turn down reflections.
- Square + square rose, satin nickel. Neutral mid-tone for pale timber and stone; easy day-to-day care.
Hinges and stops ship colour-matched; cabinet pulls mirror the same silhouette so kitchens and wardrobes keep the story. For mixed-metal accents, we pair brass levers with nickel accessories on coastal projects.
Workshop Team — Who Builds It
The same people who prototype our grips train new operators, so intent survives scale. A few of the faces you’ll see on video calls and on the floor.
Sameer — QC
Logs torque and cycle counts; holds lots when bushings drift. You’ll see his notes on your cartons.
Ravi — Assembly
Preloads springs, mates spindles and torques to spec so the first pull feels inevitable, not forced.
Documentation & CAD — What You Receive
Clear drawings cut noise at site. We issue one bundle per line: plan/elevation with edge radii, spindle spec, return spring note and concealed fixing detail. The same geometry repeats across levers, pulls and hinges, so the hand learns once while schedules stay short.
- DWG & PDF pack — scaled views with critical dims and tolerances.
- Revit family on request — LOD tuned to room and corridor work.
- Spec note — finish, rose type and torque range written as a single line.
- Care card — straight strokes for brushed grain; neutral cleaner only.
For hospitality handovers we add flat numbers on cartons; QC signs each lot so punch lists remain short. If a project swaps a finish late, geometry remains identical — only the finish page changes.
Sustainability — Brass Loop & Packing
Brass lives well in a loop. Off-cuts from CNC return to the melt; cartons ship flat-numbered so returns don’t turn into landfill. We minimise plastic and keep parts wrapped in paper sleeves that can be recycled.
- Scrap back to casting — off-cuts and failed trials are weighed and logged.
- Alloy trace — copper/zinc ratio tracked per lot; coastal jobs get marine-grade lacquer.
- Flat-numbered cartons — spares live with the right floor for quiet maintenance.
- Repair, not replace — bushings, springs and roses are serviceable on site.
We publish a simple sheet with weights, finishes and care intervals; hospitality teams keep it with the BOQ so the building stays calm without specialist crews.
Installers’ FAQ — Site Notes & Templates
Calm handovers come from predictable holes and torque that sits inside the range. Templates and notes below reflect typical Indian door sets — laminate, timber and fire doors with metal frames.
- Template first — mark spindle height and backset; drill perpendicular, not stepped.
- Hinges colour-matched — spacing sets leverage; check door weight against the sheet.
- Latch side — keep strike plumb; avoid over-milling so the latch doesn’t rattle.
- Torque — tighten to spec, re-check after a week when the door has settled.
If you change a lever line mid-project, keep returns and roses consistent so grips read the same across floors. Our service WhatsApp answers drawings questions quickly; send a photo and a flat number.
