Finish of the Month: Satin Chrome

When you think of satin chrome hardware, what comes to mind? Offices, hospitals and other commercial spaces? Because satin chrome is often used in office settings, many people feel that it has an industrial look. However, satin chrome can be the perfect finish for many homes as well.

Satin chrome has a cooler tone than satin nickel (think blue undertones instead of yellow undertones). Its silver appearance contrasts nicely with dark cabinets and doors (both stained and painted), adding some visual interest to your home.

Satin chrome is a natural fit for contemporary styles, like the Tucson door lock. It can lend a space-age feel to midcentury modern homes as well.

Plus, the satin finish does a better job of hiding fingerprints than polished chrome – an added bonus if smudges bother you. 

If you like cool, contemporary styles and low-maintenance finishes, satin chrome might be the perfect fit for your home.
