About Emtek

Emtek is a leading designer and manufacturer of premium door and cabinet hardware, known for its dedication to craftsmanship, customization, and timeless design. Founded in 1981 and based in Southern California, Emtek has built a reputation for producing high-quality hardware that balances style, function, and durability.

What sets Emtek apart is its made-to-order approach. Unlike mass-produced alternatives, each Emtek piece is assembled and finished to the customer’s specifications. This level of customization allows for countless combinations of knobs, levers, rosettes, finishes, and styles—empowering designers, builders, and homeowners to create hardware that reflects their unique aesthetic.

Emtek’s products are crafted using top-grade materials, including solid brass, stainless steel, and crystal. Every detail—from the feel of a door handle to the richness of a finish—is thoughtfully considered to ensure a lasting impression. The company takes pride in hardware that doesn’t just blend in—it elevates the space it’s in.

With a design philosophy that treats hardware as the “jewelry of the home,” Emtek continues to inspire with collections that range from contemporary to traditional and everything in between. Whether part of a new build, renovation, or refresh, Emtek hardware is designed to make a statement—and stand the test of time.

Today, Emtek is a trusted name among architects, interior designers, and discerning homeowners across North America. Its commitment to quality, innovation, and individual expression continues to shape spaces that feel as personal as they are beautiful.

I've used Emtek products for multiple products from door hardware to kitchen cabinetry knobs and pulls, and it never disappoints! The quality is always exceptional - installs beautifully, wears nicely, and has that perfect hand-feel we all want in hardware.

Thanks to little things [like lighting and hardware], when you enter the house, you feel like it’s been done well. The untrained eye might not know exactly why, but it’s the door hinges and doorknobs—all the way to the light fixtures.
