8 Tips On How To Choose Bathroom Hardware
Are you ready to level up your bathroom and enjoy your morning routine that little bit more? Whether you're envisioning a tranquil spa inspired ensuite or actively constructing a multifunctional family bathroom, the selection of your bathroom hardware will significantly influence both the aesthetics and functionality of the space.
1. Decide on an Overall Style
Opting for coordinated hardware is advisable as it fosters a seamless visual continuity in your bathroom. Nonetheless, it is often the case that hardware doesn't match, given that existing doorknobs and faucets may have a finish distinct from the desired theme of the room. When opting to update or renovate a bathroom, selecting a unified finish can significantly enhance the overall design, allowing the theme to harmonize effortlessly.
Before delving into the realization of your bathroom hardware ideas, take a moment to step back and consider how they will harmonize with the overall style of your bathroom. Feeling perplexed about where to begin? Here's a comprehensive guide to the top cabinet hardware trends in 2022:
Sleek Modern Pulls
Combining Knobs And Pulls
Satin Or Matte Black Finishes
Colour Pops
Industrial Modern Hardware
Minimalism
Natural
Geometric
For bathrooms with a more traditional style, opt for hardware featuring clean lines and simple details, such as the T Bar Handle.
If you prefer hardware that is bold in form yet soft around the edges, our T Bar Handle adds a comforting touch to your bathroom touchpoints. This handle can be effortlessly paired with coordinating modern door knobs for a cohesive and inviting aesthetic.
2. Think Materials
In the present day, bathroom hardware is available in a diverse array of materials, each boasting its distinct advantages. Consider brass, this robust material not only presents an appealing aesthetic but also comes with antimicrobial properties, contributing to the prevention of bacteria and mold growth in your bathroom. Additionally, brass bathroom fixtures offer the advantage of high corrosion resistance, ensuring durability, and can be easily recycled when it comes time for a change.
In addition to our opulent golden brass, we offer hardware crafted from other easily maintainable materials such as aluminum and stainless steel. Here are the main distinctions between the two:
Aluminum:
Possesses the strength of stainless steel but is visually lighter.
Exhibits corrosion resistance.
Can be anodized to achieve a sleek black finish.
Stainless Steel:
Serves as a new alternative for achieving a silvery-toned, elegant hardware appearance akin to our Satin Nickel finish.
Slightly shinier than brass but shares the same substantial feel.
Exhibits corrosion resistance, ensuring lasting durability.
Ideally, the finest bathroom hardware should be designed to endure repeated touch and exposure to moisture without undergoing significant degradation.
3. Think Finishes
Moving forward, the next consideration is selecting finishes that seamlessly align with your carefully curated design schemes. To assist you in choosing the perfect colors for your bathroom, explore our comprehensive breakdown of hardware finishes below:
Brass
Homeowners cherish our brass fixtures for their exceptional ability to capture and reflect light at precisely the right moments. This shade proves to be exceptionally effective in enhancing the aesthetics of everything, be it brand-new furniture or DIY projects.
Satin Nickel
For those who gravitate towards modern and contemporary aesthetics, explore our refined selection of satin nickel hardware. If sustainability with added shine and luster is a priority, consider our Stainless Steel collection. Enhance the subtle gray and silver tones in your hardware by pairing your selection with marble flooring or walls. The advantage of incorporating marble into your bathroom, alongside our hardware, lies in its natural water-resistant properties.
Antique Brass
Infuse your bathroom with a vintage and industrial ambiance by incorporating our antique brass hardware. The worn-in aesthetic is perfect for introducing a touch of character to your modern or minimalist bathroom. Despite its antique appearance, our brass hardware is meticulously maintained, ensuring longevity well into the future.
Black
Elevate the allure of your neutral-colored bathroom cabinets and vanity units with our matte black hardware. Black possesses a versatile quality that effortlessly complements any style, and it also excels at concealing fingerprints.
Industrial Grey
For those desiring silver hardware with an infusion of warmth, opt for our industrial grey hardware. This finish imparts a sharp and smart aesthetic to your bathroom, fostering a sense of tranquility and order.
Colourful
Introduce an instant burst of joy to your interior touchpoints with vibrant cabinet knobs. If you're beginning your bathroom design from the ground up, seize this opportunity to infuse creativity! Consider using the color palette designated to our hardware as inspiration for your bathroom renovation.
4. Start with Your Towels
Bid farewell to scattered piles of towels on your bathroom floor by utilizing our wall mounted towel rails. The clean cut lines of towel rail make for a striking addition to your traditional bathroom, while the curved towel rail offers a slightly gentler touch with its curved profile, perfect for a modern and contemporary aesthetic. Fun fact: Curved towel rails promote airflow, ensuring your towels dry quickly.
5. Upgrade Your Cabinetry
Enhance your vanity or storage units in a cost effective manner with our bathroom hardware sets, including mix-and-match knobs and pulls. Offered in a diverse range of shapes, sizes, and colors, these sets can be seamlessly paired to create a sophisticated and functional space.
6. Add Extra Storage
Incorporating shelving or additional hooks is a reliable storage solution for your bathroom. Both options ingeniously utilize wall space, freeing up your floor area. This not only provides more room to navigate but also contributes to the serene atmosphere you desire for your early morning rituals or post-dinner pampering sessions.
7. Consider Faucets & Showerheads
When choosing your faucet and showerhead, think of the size of the bathroom and what’s most convenient for your own showering habits.
8. Don't Neglect Your Bathroom Door
When selecting bathroom hardware, don't overlook the impact of your choice of door handles on elevating the entire room. Changing your internal door handles represents another swift and effortless method to rejuvenate your space virtually overnight.
