Push Plates
Door push plate as the name suggests is the metal sheet you touch while pushing a swinging door open. Installed on one or both the sides, these plates protect the door surface from fingerprints, dirt and other damage. Our online store in Australia houses everything that you may be looking for in terms of door hardware starting from door bolts , hinges, door stops, cabin hooks, door knockers to centre door knobs, escutcheons and doorbells.
At Restoration Online, we understand that your interior or exterior door hardware requirements aren’t just functional but also aesthetic. Available in traditional, modern and premium styles, our decorative door push plates can enhance the look of any house or establishment. For example, if you prefer the classic or aged look, you may want to install door push plates in antique brass or antique copper finish. If you’re more into post-modernist architecture, then choose among chrome, satin chrome, satin brass or satin nickel designs. For minimalist interiors, you might prefer the black or pewter door push plates and for a classic and timeless finish opt for polished brass.
Why do you need a metal plate for your door?
Swing doors can easily look dirty without a good, sturdy, door push plate. Imagine someone coming out of the kitchen with sticky hands and pushing the door open — leaving finger stains on the immaculate white door! You’ll be able to avoid this by installing a door push plate right at the place where the hand is positioned to push the door open.
Using metallic door push plates will keep your doors dry and spotless. You can easily wipe off the dirt from metal but not from wood. Wooden doors can be damaged in a short while if you regularly wipe off its protective paint coating to remove dirt.
Also, working as a decorative backplate, a door push plate can conveniently hide the screw holes of the handle or pull installed on the other side of the door.
Doors are often subjected to a lot of abuse as they get pushed, pulled, shoved or kicked daily. Investing in good quality plates can keep them in good shape. On instances when your hands are full of groceries or any other luggage, your first instinct would be to just kick the door open. Door bottom plates or door kick plates installed at the bottom of doors allow you to quickly and efficiently enter your home without worrying about any damage.
How high should a push plate be on a door?
Installing a door push plate doesn’t require any expert carpentry skills. We provide face fix screws with every product, so you just need a rivet gun or a drilling machine to mount the plate. When installing the door push plate, make sure you position it 1 ½ inch from the outer edge of the door and at a height of 42 to 45 inches from the floor. Also, note that the door handle you install along with the plate is at your arms level.
