Garage Door Hardware, Handles and Hinges

Decorative handles, strap hinges and finishes that complete the look of the door.

Hardware is the jewelry of a garage door. Decorative handles, strap hinges and clavos can turn a plain door into a carriage-house door, and the finish of the working hinges, brackets and track affects how everything looks up close. In Nashville, many homeowners use hardware as a low-cost way to refresh a door.

We explain the difference between decorative and functional hardware. Decorative pieces are cosmetic and can be added to many doors, while hinges, brackets and rollers carry the load and must match the door. We show you finishes in black, bronze, galvanized and stainless looks and help you choose a style. Installation includes mounting decorative pieces securely and replacing worn functional parts when needed. We can also look at the working parts while the door is being updated. Old rollers, worn hinges and loose brackets are easy to replace at the same time, and doing it together means one visit and a door that looks better and runs better afterward.

Decorative versus functional

Handles and strap hinges are cosmetic, while the working hinges and rollers carry the load.

Finishes

Black powder coat, bronze, galvanized and stainless looks each set a different tone.

Sizing and spacing

Decorative pieces look best when sized and spaced to match the door panels and windows.

Secure mounting

We fasten decorative hardware so it stays put and does not damage the panel.
