Door hardware is the unsung hero of interior design. Its blend of art and utility is a small yet significant touch that ties together the style of an individual room or entire home.
As we step deeper into 2024, door hardware trends will continue to evolve, but choosing custom pieces from Rocky Mountain Hardware means you’ll never have to worry about the durability or quality of your door hardware or its ability to set and outlast trends. Find out more about what to look for in 2024 and how to choose the best door hardware for your home or project.
Choosing Door Hardware That Sets Trends in 2024
A mix of traditional charm and modern sophistication, the 2024 design trends are all about creating a statement. From the grandeur of luxury door handles to the subtle elegance of sleek cabinet pulls and accessories, the choice of hardware is pivotal in defining the character of your space. Here are some more key reasons why selecting the right door hardware deserves your attention:
- First Impressions: Door hardware is often one of the first things a person interacts with when entering a home. High-quality, well-designed hardware can make a strong positive impression.
- Quality and Durability: High-quality door hardware, like those made from our art-grade bronze, is visually appealing, durable, and long-lasting. Investing in good quality hardware means you are less likely to face issues like wear and tear, rusting, or malfunctioning, common with lower-quality materials.
- Security and Safety: Door hardware plays a pivotal role in the security of your home. Robust and well-made locks and handles can provide peace of mind by enhancing the safety of your house. It’s essential to choose hardware that not only looks good but also provides reliable security.
- Ergonomics and Comfort: Good door hardware is designed with ergonomics in mind. It should feel comfortable to use, fitting naturally in your hand, and should not require excessive force or awkward movements to operate. This is particularly important for areas of high use, ensuring ease of access and usability for all, including children and those with physical limitations.
- Property Value: Quality door hardware can be a small but influential factor in the overall value of your home. Potential buyers often notice the small details and high-end hardware can add to your property’s perceived value and appeal.
- Personalization and Expression: Your choice of door hardware can be a form of personal expression. It allows you to showcase your unique style and preferences, much like any other aspect of home décor. Whether you prefer a modern, minimalist look or a more traditional, ornate style, your door hardware can reflect your taste.
Door Hardware Trends and Influences
The design influences on door hardware in 2024 are diverse, ranging from minimalist to maximalist styles, ergonomic considerations, durability, customization, and eco-friendly designs.
Customization and Durability
Bronze is a timeless material known for its durability and classic beauty. It continues to be a popular choice in 2024 because of its endless possibilities for customization and integration with any style.
With our exclusive focus on high-quality, art-grade bronze, Rocky Mountain Hardware offers a range of luxury door hardware that resonates with contemporary and traditional design styles. The patina that develops over time on bronze pieces ensures that each hardware element becomes more personalized and unique, reflecting the individuality of the homeowner.
Minimalism to Maximalism
Whether your design inclination is towards the clean lines of minimalism or the bold statements of maximalism, selecting the right door hardware is key. In minimalist designs, the hardware often features sleek, understated lines, while maximalist styles might see more ornate and detailed pieces. Rocky Mountain Hardware offers a range of options that cater to both ends of this spectrum, ensuring that the hardware matches and enhances the overall design theme.
Ergonomic Door Hardware Trends
In 2024, there is a growing emphasis on ergonomic design in door hardware. This includes considerations for comfort, ease of use, and accessibility. Rocky Mountain Hardware’s designs consider the tactile experience, ensuring that each piece is beautiful to look at and comfortable and intuitive to use.
Eco-friendly Design and Sustainability
Sustainability is a key trend in door hardware design for 2024. Bronze is inherently eco-friendly due to its durability and the ability to be recycled. Rocky Mountain Hardware’s commitment to using only art-grade bronze certified as having a minimum of 90% post-consumer recycled content aligns with this trend, offering homeowners, designers, and architects a choice that is both environmentally responsible and aesthetically pleasing.
Revolutionizing Security with Smart Locks
As technology integrates more seamlessly into our lives, the demand for smart locks is rising. In 2024, the trend is toward electronic locks that blend technological innovation with aesthetic appeal. Rocky Mountain Hardware’s high-end door hardware selection includes smart electronic locks that offer top-notch security and add to the door’s visual appeal, marrying function with form seamlessly.
