Custom forged door hardware for wood doors includes strap hinges, pintles, clavos (decorative nail heads), door pulls, knockers, door handles, and decorative escutcheons. These are hand-forged or machine-pressed to replicate the appearance of traditional blacksmithed ironwork and are intended for installation on solid wood doors in traditional, Spanish Colonial, Mediterranean, and rustic architectural styles.
Strap hinges and surface-mount hardware are secured with wood screws through pre-drilled holes. Clavos are hammered or screwed directly into the door face. Door pulls are typically through-bolted for security. For heavy or very wide doors, the hardware should be sized and spaced to distribute load appropriately across the door's structure.
