Brandino Brass has become a mainstay in the design, construction and home improvement industry throughout the Southeast.
Located in Homewood, the family-owned hardware and lighting company has been a resource to architects, designers, contractors and homeowners alike with their extensive collection and variety of options.
Brandino Brass has high-quality decorative and architectural hardware that includes everything from cabinet hardware and elegant doorknobs to fireballs, bathroom accessories and unique light fixtures.
One of the best features of Brandino Brass has always been its beautiful showroom. In the showroom, clients are able to the view the hardware and lighting in person, instead of online shopping. Customers can see the actual size of each piece, feel the material, see the finish and choose the best option for their home.
The company also is well known throughout the Southeast for its attention to detail and efficiency.
When homeowner E.A. Montgomery began renovating her house a few years ago, she knew with which small details she wanted to start.
“It was actually one of the first places we came,” she said of Brandino Brass. Her house is filled with the company’s products, including drawer pulls, doorstops and French door bolts.
“It’s the best you can find in this city,” Montgomery said. “There’s nowhere else to go in Birmingham. And their customer service matches the quality of the product, which you don’t always find.”
The reputation in the community is only a window into their high-quality customer service. Brandino Brass ensures that from the time you choose your hardware to the final installation, you will receive friendly accessibility.
“From your first walk in, to execution, there’s not a problem they haven’t handled with immediacy,” Montgomery said.
Customers aren’t the only side of the business that Brandino Brass employees have impressed with their reliability.
“Whenever you place an order and need something, it’s always a place to come if you need it quick,” contractor John Parker said. Hardware can go through several hands before reaching the installation stage of the process, so efficiency is crucial when coordinating a customer’s order.
After a customer picks out the specific hardware they want, Brandino Brass creates a list of parts for each door, window and cabinet in the house to which their hardware is being applied.
Ginny Monheit of A+G Interior Design said working with Brandino Brass makes fulfilling her customers’ hardware and lighting needs much easier.
“They are very knowledgeable about their product and helpful in making selections,” Monheit said. “However, their service does not stop there. They are willing to go to our clients’ homes and count the exterior versus interior doors, cabinets, drawers, hinges and anything else the client needs. And once the product has arrived, they help with product placement and locations. They could not be more full-service.” The beautiful lighting showroom is now open to designers, homeowners or anyone who simply wants to peruse the offerings in a calm and comfortable environment.
