The available hardware for Pella entry doors doesn’t meet my client’s standards. I’m looking for another company to provide a more modern handle, escutcheon, etc. Any suggestions?

Are you aware that Pella has three or four options and an upgrade to a custom made Rocky Mountain style?
What is it that does not satisfy them. Do they want solid brass instead of stamped metal or is it the shapes and viual presentation?
If they want a knob instead of the typical practical lever handle, you could use one of Emtex's knob sets on the square shaft to fit, I think.
Excellence is its own reward!
I've seen all of Pella's options, including the Rocky Mountain Hardware line. Nothing they offer matches the refined finishes throughout the rest of the house (polished chrome, modern, geometrical). I looked at Emtek's website but didn't find anything suitable. Any other suggestions? Thanks.
