Leaders of Mila have launched a new heritage door handle, with a contemporary twist. With no fewer than nine colours and finishes available, there is a handle in the range to suit even the most traditional or modern door, according to Mila’s representatives.
Designed in-house by Mila’s product development team, the new heritage handle features a diamond-shaped lever tip for a ‘timeless aesthetic’ and a faux ‘clocked’ screw detail on the external backplate for a ‘truly authentic look’. The heritage black and heritage pewter versions of the handle both have a hammered textured effect, making them ‘perfect for traditional and cottage-style properties’. The pewter patina, antique bronze, polished, satin and matt-painted versions are all smooth finishes that are designed to bring a hint of classic styling to more modern homes.
The heritage handle has been designed to be easy to stock and easy to fit. The 240mm backplate and universal lever are suitable for both left- and right-handed doors, and all of the handles are supplied as standard with fixings for 44mm and 48mm composite doors. There is an option of a 70m fixing pack for PVC doors.
The new door handle collection suites with Mila’s popular heritage espag handles, peg stays and dummy butt hinges. With matching letter plates available as well, the emphasis is on maximising sales opportunities for customers, said representatives of the business.
“We’ve responded to demand from our customers for a modern heritage range which works across all window and door styles,” said Richard Gyde, Mila’s managing director. “By offering such a wide range of colours and finishes, the aim is to appeal to all those retail buyers who just want something quite classic as well as those who want to replicate something very traditional.”
Like all Mila-branded products, the new heritage range comes with a 10-year guarantee on mechanical operation, a 10-year guarantee on all the painted finishes and a five-year guarantee on the matt black and white plated finishes. A package of sales and marketing support is provided for customers buying the new heritage handles, with downloadable brochures available via a dedicated new webpage, links to digital animations and free product imagery.
