A general term for metal and non-metal products and accessories used in buildings or structures. Generally has a practical and decorative double effect. Architectural hardware began in the iron shop, coppersmith shop and tinsmith shop and other manual workshops. In the Tang Dynasty, China had a nail-making workshop, which made nails, latches, locks, door rings and so on by hand. However, due to the use of wood and stone structures in ancient buildings, architectural hardware has developed slowly in the past few thousand years. After the 19th century, with the widespread use of metal materials and the needs of social life, building hardware has developed rapidly, and there have been many small factories or workshops that produce steel nails, hinges, latches, window hooks, water nozzle valves, wire weaving window screens, etc. Later, mechanical processing equipment was gradually used to replace manual production, and many specialized enterprises were formed. With the continuous improvement of various building facilities standards, modern building hardware products have developed from a single variety to a series, and the requirements for their aesthetic and decorative effects are becoming higher and higher. The production process of building hardware products has also made great progress. Most of the products have been developed from the original semi-manual, semi-mechanical operation to semi-automatic or fully automatic mechanical production line. Building hardware in the material has been from the traditional copper alloy, low carbon steel, etc., expanded to zinc alloy, aluminum alloy, stainless steel, plastic, glass fiber reinforced plastic and various composite materials.
