Often during the home renovation process it’s the smaller detail upgrades that can make a big impact to your project. Case in point, the recent internal and external door hardware upgrades using products from Lemaar that I installed in my own home.

Our house was built in the late 90’s and is a pretty stock-standard build. No fancy tap ware or door handles which would have been a decision made by the original home owners to save some dollars at the time. Fast forward 20 years later, and no longer must we have to settle for cheaply made, standard design items just to fit within the budget. But instead we are spoilt for choice with quality and affordable pieces for our home which can instantly add both character and a sense of luxe to a home.

Lemaar door hardware is an Australian owned business and leader in door hardware across Australia. They are a trusted brand with not only builders and architects, by DIYers like myself too. Their hardware range which is designed in Australia, consists of both classic and on-trend designs which are available in a variety of finishes including brushed brass and black. With entry and passage sets plus privacy handles, the Lemaar range is a great option if you are simply updating one door, or wanting to upgrade and match your entire household door hardware.

When it came to installing both the Lemaar entry and passage sets in our home, we were on our L plates not having changed door hardware before ourselves. But we were pleasantly surprised when both sets were super quick and easy to change over from our existing hardware. To see just how easy, you can view a video of the installation of the Lemaar Almeri entry set in brushed brass on my Instagram here. And the installation of the Almeri passage set in brushed brass here.

We are so happy with both the look and quality feel of the new hardware and love how much it has added to our otherwise plain and boring doors. While upgrading the interior door handles, we also decided to add even more character by DIYing our own door moulding which compliments the new brushed brass additions perfectly. Find that project here.

The Lemaar range can be found at leading hardware retailers.
