A story of craft, three generations
in the making
Hendel & Hendel began in 1971, when our grandfather ran a small fittings business from a shed in Retford. What started as a humble family operation grew into a trusted name built on integrity, hard work and a deep respect for craft.
Each generation has added new expertise, from joinery, engineering to manufacturing and that legacy remains the foundation of everything we create today. Hendel & Hendel was born from decades of knowledge and a belief that decorative hardware should be more than an afterthought; it should shape how people live in their spaces.
"Hendel & Hendel was born from decades of knowledge and a desire to reimagine hardware as something more than an afterthought."
The power of the smallest detail
We believe the details you touch every day should feel considered. Every collection begins with an idea; a sketch, a reference, an unexpected source of inspiration and evolves through meticulous prototyping and refinement. Proportion, weight, balance, tactility… every millimetre matters.
"Every millimetre matters; the perfect handle should feel inevitable, as though it was always meant to be there."
From Lincolnshire roots to London energy
Lincolnshire is where our story began and remains the heart of the business, it’s where ideas are born and crafted. The opening of our London Experience Studio marks a new chapter; not a showroom, but a place for collaboration and discovery.
Lincolnshire gives us stillness and craft; London brings energy and global relevance. Together, they allow us to inspire designers and homeowners around the world.
