BUILDING A HANDLE !

HANDLE’S SCULPTURE

Furniture of the house can be changed often, its life span is short as we all believe in advancement and progress. We forget to change the door handles due to the fact that when doors are not changed then what is the need of changing door handles.

The Sculptor

The Sculptor is an artist who has an expertise in sculpting. He first creates the drawing of the desired handle and then carves a wooden model of the handle.

It is a very daunting task as it involves a deep level of thinking revolving around imagination and the client’s needs

In this stage, all the experiment is done to make sure that the handle is easy to use and is comfortable .Then the wooden model is transferred and engraved on steel molds.

CONSTRUCTION OF THE MOLD

During the mold building, the drawing which is received during the creative phase is digitizedThe 3D Drawing is then sent to particular cutters who give shapes to the steel block for the model which is to be made .The construction of modern handles is much easier than classic handles .

When it comes to vintage handles where the detailings are numerous the cutters have to work with very low tolerances to make all the friezes to distinguish them

THE MOLDING PHASE

This procedure involves heating and begins from cutting the brass bar to many sizes

Each piece is heated in the oven at a temperature of 600 to 800 degree celsius ,after which the required elements are positioned inside the mold ,where they are forged by powerful presses that in a few seconds give the shape of the handleOnce cooled the excess brass parts are removed.

THE MECHANICAL PROCESSMIXTURE OF TURNING AND DRILLING

In turning ,mechanical work is performed on the necks of the handles as well as turning ,drilling broaching and million operations. There are also various handles that are created directly in the lathe ; in these cases the brass bar is worked with the spindle and subsequently bent when hot.

There are two ways of making a door handle either forging or casting.Forging is considered to be the best method to make a handle.

What is Forging?

Forging is a metal working process that manipulates, shapes, deforms, and compresses metal in order to achieve a desired form, configuration, or appearance outlined by a metal processing design or diagram

Forged steel is generally stronger and more reliable and stronger than castings and plate steel due to the fact that the grain flows of the steel are altered, conforming to the shape of the part.

Benefits of Forging

Directional Strength

Resistance to Fatigue

Flexibility of Design

Custom Designs

Strength

What is Casting?

Casting is a manufacturing process in which a liquid material is usually poured into a mold that contains a cavity of the desired shape and then allowed to solidify.

Casting processes involve the use of molten material, usually metal This molten material is then poured into a mold cavity that takes the form of the finished part.

GRINDING AND POLISHING

When it comes to grinding, the handle is turned,after getting turned ,the handle is subjected to grinding ,which involves removing the rough surface of the molded pieces and the most impure part of the brass by means of abrasive belts of different grades.

For modern handles,the process is completely automatic, while for vintage and classy handles,human intervention is mandatory to give that typical artisan taste and uniqueness that distinguish them

FINISHING

Bronzing process is quite easy than the other methods like first the pieces are washed ,sanded and then attached to frames and then immersed in a special solution at a constant temperature.Drying and shading are the next steps ,performed manually in order to create the desired colour contrast and bring out the artisan taste of our handles

For the chrome plating, nickel plating and gilding finishes ,the pieces are hung on special frames and immersed in tanks where a thin layer of chrome ,nickel or gold is deposited in an electrochemical process. Some finishes are then applied with a protective coating using an electrostatic gun.

We hope that now the process of creating a handle is clearer and this would help you in choosing the best handle for your dream home!
