Introducing the new Cove Collection
Our new organic hardware collection, inspired by the British coastline. Sculpted by the sea, cast from brass, and waiting to be discovered.
Architectural hardware designed for exclusive private residences worldwide.
Making the design and manufacture of architectural hardware for high-end residences as easy as possible, from specifying to installation.
Elevating global projects with British elegance.
Over the last 25 years we have collaborated on projects in over 50 countries, supporting some stunning design schemes. We feature a small selection of these in our case studies.
The anti-droop, anti-wobble mechanism for levers.
A remarkable piece of engineering that sits concealed within the door, never protruding more than 8mm, and ensures that the lever handles sit perfectly level and do not wobble.
Made in Britain. Enjoyed worldwide.
At Joseph Giles, we value British heritage and values. That’s why we design and manufacture our products in Britain, using skilled artisans and craftsmen to create beautiful decorative ironmongery.
