This emergency release is designed to complement Art Deco style interiors and lever handles and door knobs on the matching rose.
There are two sizes of rose backplates available, enabling designers to choose between having a symmetrical size rose to that of a lever or door knob, or having a smaller size. A smaller rose creates an aesthetical hierarchy between the main feature (lever or knob), with the more discreet feature being the release.
Please note, this product is made to order and quantity discounts are available.
If you're wondering which finish type to select, here's the key difference: living finishes gently patinate and change over time, ageing gracefully, whilst ageless finishes are either naturally unchanging, or boast a protective ceramic coating which mean the finish stays consistent.
