At The French Steel Company, every detail of your custom steel doors and windows matters, and hardware is no exception. The right hardware doesn’t just enhance the look of your doors; it delivers smooth operation, lasting durability, and security you can trust. That’s why we proudly offer and recommend Emtek Mortised Hardware, a leading choice for luxury residential and commercial projects.

With Emtek Mortised Hardware, you don’t just get a handle; you get a refined statement piece for your entry.
Your hardware should complement the look of your steel doors and windows. We offer Emtek’s full range of finishes, including:

At The French Steel Company, customization goes beyond the frame and glass; your hardware selection is part of the design process. We help you choose the perfect combination of:

Finish – Coordinated with your steel door color and surrounding architectural elements.
Our design team works with you to ensure your hardware not only performs flawlessly but also enhances the overall beauty of your home or business.
Your hardware is the part of the door you interact with every single day. Cheap or poorly made components can lead to loose handles, misaligned locks, or premature wear. With Emtek Mortised Hardware and our other premium selections, you’re investing in:
Reliability – Built to last for decades.
Security – Strong locking systems that protect your home.
Aesthetics – A cohesive, high-end look that matches your architectural style.
Whichever style you choose, proper installation of your hardware is critical for proper functionality. Each component in the selection of the hardware for residential or commercial steel windows and doors adds to the security and ease of access to your space, so proper management of installation is crucial. Our AAMA window installation methods will make certain that your hardware is handled with care and operating properly.
While the primary goal of the hardware for custom steel and glass doors is security and ease of entry, the design selection of hardware can be equal to the elegance and style of your new steel and glass doors. With three diverse hardware manufactures to choose from, we offer diverse styles and functions to complement the architecture of any project.
While Emtek Mortised Hardware is our primary recommendation, we also offer a variety of high-end hardware from trusted manufacturers. Whether you need lever handles, pull bars, multi-point locking systems, or custom designs, we can provide the perfect hardware solution for your project. These brands include:

All Rocky Mountain Hardware is backed by their lifetime product guarantee (installation not included). Each piece is individually cast for one-of-a-kind character, and then given a hand-applied patina that grows richer and more lustrous in response to the environment.

Selecting the most appropriate hardware for custom steel doors and windows is important. The French Steel Company offers a range of styles and zinc-coated steel finishes from leading manufacturers of high-performance hardware. Our professionals can recommend hardware that complements the sleek look and narrow sightlines of steel doors and also meets your security needs.
Being a crucial component of commercial steel windows and doors, hardware is a key component to consider in the design process. With the manufacturing of the door panels, window sashes and lockbox being among the first steps in fabrication, choosing the style of hardware is required early in the process.
Operating handle hardware not only provides functionality to steel and glass doors but is also largely responsible for the security of your home or commercial space. The operation and strength of French Steel hardware isn’t as simple as one would imagine. With dozens of mechanical components operating in unison to allow smooth control, high-quality manufacturing is imperative for hardware that will last the lifetime of your custom steel and glass doors and windows. For this reason, we provide options from industry leaders that will complement your French Steel units and ensure safety and security for years to come.
