History

Door fingerplates, also known as door plates and push plates, appeared in the 19th century and were very much part of Victorian door furniture and remained in vogue right through to the early twentieth century. They served to prevent unwanted marks from the daily contact of fingers pushing open and closing doors and were positioned just below the door handle. They are still relevant today, and will give any door a face-lift – a good smarten up.
