Good to Know About Oil-Rubbed Bronze Finish

An aged bronze finish is a perfect choice when you're looking to add more character to your home decor. As it's used and exposed to environmental elements over time, its undertones become more visible. That way, your doors will gain more distinctive character over time, achieving a unique aged appeal.

However, if the vintage effect isn't what you seek – no reason to worry. For those wanting less of a weathered aesthetic, there are formulas designed to show no noticeable change over time.
