Brass Tacks is a family run business established in 1983 in Clerkenwell, London. We are manufacturers of bespoke brassware supplying trade only.
Based in West London, we specialise in decorative grilles but can also refurbish or replicate brassware using traditional methods dating back to the 18th century. With over 85 years of manufacturing expertise to hand, there are not many projects that we cannot undertake.
Brass Tacks have worked for a number of prestigious clients and have completed contracts at The Ritz Hotel, Harrods, The Royal Albert Hall, The Berkely Hotel, St Martins in the Field Church, County Hall London, Jaguar and Honda.
We pride ourselves on attention to detail and aim to give every order or enquiry our full attention at all times. The majority of our business is from repeat customers and we work extremely hard to retain them. We work with Architects and Interior Designers as well as builders merchants, architectural Ironmongers, cabinet makers, joiners and carpenters.
The Royal Albert Hall
Replacement of mortice knobs and escutcheons on the Grand Tier Boxes formed an important part of the project. Over time, knobs had been replaced with alternate products and some escutcheons were missing. We utilised an original victorian mortice knob and escutcheon provided, as patterns to cast new fittings. These were then filed, cleaned, polished and assembled, and are currently pride of place, fitted to the doors of The Royal Albert Hall.
