Who would be the best person to help you find suitable fixtures and fittings for doors and windows?

Architects
are trained to create designs that are structurally sound, functional,
and aesthetically pleasing. They also often have a basis knowledge of
construction materials, though not the detailed knowledge required when
choosing appropriate hardware.

Interior designers
specialize in the decorating and furnishing of rooms and can offer
fresh, innovative ideas and advice, but will be concentrating on the
appearance rather than how the fittings work.Maybe a blacksmith or
metal worker would be the person to ask.. No, a joiner is the best
person to give advise.

Joiners understand what is
needed, they have made doors and windows and know how big a hinge would
be needed to hold the weight of a solid oak door, or which lock would
fit properly and safely in rebated french windows. Advise is often
needed as good quality hardware can be expensive. You need to get the
right thing, before cutting holes in your precious doors and windows.

Architectural
Ironmongery Ltd is run by trained joiners with over getting on for 90
years of joinery knowledge and experience between the three of them.
They are happy to discuss restoration projects with their customers,
giving advise when necessary. The retail and mail order business is
based in Ross-on-Wye, Herefordshire, England, but ships world wide and
has a huge amount and variety of hardware in stock. http://www.arciron.com
