Marvin Windows and Doors and Marvin Entry Doors Expand Architectural Hardware
Baldwin joins Architectural Hardware offerings; Marvin Entry Door hardware expanded
WARROAD, Minn. – Four years after Marvin Windows and Doors introduced Architectural Hardware, the line continues to grow. Marvin is thrilled to offer hardware from another great American brand: Baldwin. The rich histories and legacies of Marvin and Baldwin will complement each other to offer customers the best in hardware.
Baldwin Hardware Corporation manufactures an extensive family of superior architectural and decorative products and is an industry pioneer in the introduction of Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) high quality finishes. A nationally respected hardware brand, Baldwin has been producing solid forged brass hardware at their Reading, Penn. headquarters for over 60 years. They will offer numerous hardware choices to Marvin, including swinging multi-point handles for swinging French doors. Four handle set style collections will be offered in five different finishes: Brass PVD, Satin Nickel PVD, Oil Rubbed Bronze, Venetian Bronze and Distressed Antique Satin Nickel.
Additionally, all five of Marvin’s Architectural Hardware suppliers will now be offered for Marvin Entry Doors. Baldwin, Ashley Norton, Bouvet®, Nobilus and Valli & Valli’s entry mortise handle sets will available for both a multi-point and a traditional entry mortise handle set. This Marvin Entry Door service provides a “one stop shop” solution for customers who value sophisticated and quality hardware. Although any sort of hardware can be used with Marvin Entry Doors’ custom wood doors, the addition of architectural hardware simplifies the specification and ordering of quality architectural hardware to best accent these elegant entry systems.
John Simpson of Marvin says, “Marvin knows that hardware offers the finishing touch to a window or door. Architectural Hardware goes perfectly with our beautiful products and we are pleased to continue to expand the collection to offer customers many design choices.”
