Amarr Offers Aluminum Decorative Garage Door HardwareNew Rust-resistant Decorative Hardware Available for Amarr Carriage House Collections

January 23, 2008 -- Amarr Garage Doors continues to add variety and options to the many steel carriage house doors offered by the company. The latest addition is aluminum decorative hardware that enhances the beauty of the garage door.

The new hardware provides a classic hand-forged, wrought iron look that adds authenticity to Amarr's Classica and Oak Summit steel carriage house models. The new hardware offers a more e-dimensional look, is lightweight and rust-resistant.

"All of the new models were tested in our salt-spray chamber and performed very well under adverse conditions," said Vickie Lents, Amarr's Residential Category Director. "They add an authentic carriage house feature at an affordable price."

Canterbury Ring Handles

There are six aluminum decorative hardware options available. In the Versailles Collection there are 9" handles, 11" L-hinges and 18" strap hinges. The Canterbury Collection offers 3 ½" ring handles, 10 ½" handles, and 17" strap hinges.

The aluminum hardware is featured in all the recently published Amarr literature under steel carriage house options and on the Amarr Classica Collection poster. For pricing and ordering information, dealers should contact an Amarr Door Center in their area.
