Charleston Hardware Co

Charleston Hardware Co. is a small, privately held company based in North Charleston, South Carolina. Founded in 1999, the company initially focused on antique hardware sales and restoration services. Recognizing a high demand for matching sets from customers, Charleston Hardware Co. began collecting original antique patterns and, in 2003, commenced reproduction of these pieces. Today, Charleston Hardware Co. manufactures a wide array of authentic antique hardware reproductions. They specialize in window and kitchen hardware, doorknobs, hinges, swing doors, and entry door sets. The company's commitment to authenticity is evident in their meticulous process: antique American pieces are carefully collected, molds and dies are painstakingly recreated from these originals, and each piece is crafted using time-honored techniques dating back over 125 years. A unique distinction is Charleston Hardware Co.'s use of the original composition of bronze in their casting process, a practice that sets them apart from other hardware manufacturers. The company has meticulously reproduced complete suites of each pattern, allowing for harmonious matching hardware throughout a house. Charleston Hardware Co. prides itself on assisting both building professionals and homeowners in the design, selection, and installation of appropriate hardware. They also offer customized hardware to fit existing antique locks and bespoke reproductions in wrought, cast, and lost wax, crafted from antique originals and schematics.
