Are you asking to yourself “Who would be the best person to help you find suitable fixtures and fittings for doors and windows?” Well, architects are trained to create designs that are structurally sound, functional, and aesthetically pleasing. They also often have basis knowledge of construction materials, though not the detailed knowledge required when choosing appropriate hardware.
Interior designers also 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 advice.
Basically, 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. Advice 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.

nope, I’m not asking. My younger brother is a contractor, so I use him as my expert on all matters. If it isn’t something he does himself, he’s able to find me, through his experience a good referral.
Stopped in to say thanks for placing my advert, it’s appreciated. Hope you’ll swing by for a visit, the welcome mats always out.
