Escutcheon (Pair) Matt Satin Black 50mm x 10mm
Typical applications
These escutcheons are designed for internal doors where a contemporary matt satin black finish is required. They work well on both residential and commercial projects where a coordinated, professional look is needed around door hardware.
- Internal door handle roses on standard timber doors
- Lock cylinder surrounds on internal doors
- Coordinating with modern matt black door furniture
- Concealing fixing holes and gaps around door hardware
Installation and fitting
Escutcheons are typically supplied as a pair for both sides of a door. Ensure the door surface is clean and dry before fitting. Position the escutcheon centrally around the handle rose or lock cylinder, then secure according to the fixing method provided with your door furniture. The 50mm x 10mm dimensions suit standard handle roses; measure your existing hardware to confirm compatibility before ordering.
- Clean the door surface thoroughly before installation
- Check that handle roses or lock cylinders are compatible with 50mm x 10mm dimensions
- Align escutcheons centrally and ensure they sit flush against the door
- Use appropriate fixings for your door material (typically screws for timber)
Maintenance and care
The matt satin black finish requires minimal maintenance. Wipe occasionally with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and fingermarks. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that may damage the finish. The escutcheons will develop a natural patina over time, which is characteristic of matt black products.
- Dust regularly with a soft cloth
- Avoid harsh cleaning products or abrasive materials
- Do not use scouring pads or wire brushes
- Wipe spills promptly to prevent staining
On-site tips
Keep escutcheons in their packaging until ready to fit to avoid scratching or soiling the finish. If fitting multiple doors, lay out all hardware first to ensure consistency across the project. Store in a dry location on site to prevent corrosion or damage before installation.
- Unpack only when ready to install
- Check both escutcheons match before fitting
- Keep packaging for protection during construction
- Fit after final door decoration to avoid marking
