Ordered some Carlisle brass finger/push plates and they were perfect. The size was clear in the description, the delivery was on time and they are fairly priced.

Placed an online order. Called a week later to ask about delivery times as no timescales were on the order confirmation email. Was told all items in stock and should only be a few days. I waited a week and then called again only to be told 8-10 weeks delivery now. The dishonesty is disappointing.

Door handles are for 44mm doors, this was not clear on the website (if indeed it was advertised at all). Asked if rods could be trimmed down or shorter ones sent, and was told somewhat impolitely to do it myself. I only have a hacksaw for the job, so something I'm sure their suppliers could do with ease, which I'd have been happy to pay a little extra for, took me a number of hours. I'd recommend saving yourself the bother and using a company with slightly better customer service. I also left this review on trust pilot, and the Door Handle Company deleted the review, which for me begs the question

Wonderful fast service. Beautiful quality door knobs for 1930 doors - cannot wait to get them all onto the doors and hung. Recommend this company

Shocking service. Requested that my order be cancelled due to stock delays (they don't actually have anything in stock). False promises made for when I would receive the delivery. Final request to cancel was answered by "its too late the order has already gone". Web chat staff were sarcastic and unhelpful. When I received my initial refund this was 11 less than what I paid, had to speak to them again to find out why the refund was less. No apology, just that they will get it done now. Avoid this company. Wish I had read the reviews on Google before placing my order.
