Our Story
Traditional Craftsmanship, Innovative Approach
Louis Fraser specialises in traditional architectural hardware with an innovative approach. Each piece is hand-made to order, lovingly brought to life to the highest quality standard.
Crafted in the Heart of England
Based in Woking, Surrey, Louis Fraser has built a reputation for creating exceptional decorative hardware that combines traditional craftsmanship with innovative design.
Our collections feature hand-made door handles, window furniture, cabinet hardware, and accessories — all crafted from solid bronze and malleable iron using time-honoured techniques.
Every piece passes through the hands of skilled craftspeople who apply hand-finished patinas and carefully quality check each item before it leaves our workshop.
Our Values
The principles that guide everything we create.
Traditional Craftsmanship
We preserve traditional techniques that have been refined over generations. Our craftspeople use these time-honoured methods to create hardware with authentic character that cannot be replicated by mass production.
Passion for Quality
Every piece is hand-made to order with meticulous attention to detail. We never compromise on materials or workmanship, using only solid bronze and quality iron to ensure our hardware stands the test of time.

Unlike mass-produced hardware, every Louis Fraser piece is crafted individually when you order it. This means each item has its own subtle variations and character — the hallmark of true hand-made quality. Our finishes are applied by hand using traditional chemical processes, creating authentic patinas that will age beautifully in your home.
