HARDWARE FINISHES
Hardware Finishes
Dexter finishes are durable, top quality finishes obtained by the careful processing of solid brass, stainless steel or other materials. Where required,
a protective clear coating is applied and cured under high temperature. It is important that climactic conditions and usage be taken under
consideration when selecting finishes. This is especially true in areas subjected to strong corrosive vapors, humid climate or sea air which, in a short
time, may have a damaging effect on metal finishes. The longevity and preservation of the finish appearance is determined by base metal and
finishing process. Clear protective coating or other organic finishing applications may require different methods of cleaning and care. As an
example, non-clear coated finishes should not be cleaned with soaps or any solvents; organically coated surfaces should periodically be cleaned
with a mild, non-abrasive soap and buffed lightly with a clean cloth. The type of base metal and finishing techniques must be considered when
applying any cleaning or preservative method. Contact the Schlage Technical Service Department for further information on the care of finished
hardware.
In some instances, for customer convenience, the most appropriate Builders Hardware Manufacturers Association (BHMA) finish symbols are used
to indicate similarity of appearance, regardless of base metal of finishing process. J-Series levers are zinc-based material and are plated to match
finishes indicated. Finish numbers in the 600-Series are the BHMA industry standard. The nearest old U.S. equivalent code designations are
shown in parentheses.
Refer to each lock series section for standard finish availability.
