Solid Brass Kick Plates Add Real Value - Available in Bronze, Brass, Nickel - Standard or Custom Sized
Kick Plates are a wonderful to enhance the entryway system of your home while increasing the durability of your door. Kick plates are used on both commercial doors and private homes to prevent scratches and gouges over time on the lower portion of the door. Because kick plates are available in a wide variety of sizes, materials and finishes it is easy to coordinate your new kick plate to complement your existing door hardware. Available at Look In The Attic in 14 finishes and custom sizes available.
Kick plates are a great addition to any exterior (or interior) door in your home or business. Because the lowest section of a door frequently becomes damaged over time, kick plates function as a barrier against this normal wear and tear. Depending on the type of door you have a kick plate can mount using screws (wood doors), adhesive or magnetic for metal doors. Kick plates are available in solid brass (which is extremely durable), aluminum, or even forged iron. Kick plates are available in a variety of standard sizes or can be custom sized. Available finishes include Polished Brass, Antique Brass, Satin Nickel, Weathered Black, Anodized Bronze, Antique Nickel and Polished Stainless Steel.
Bronze Kick Plate
Kick plates are produced today – allowing you to add them to your current (or new) entryway system. It is a simple way to enhance the durability of your door and complete the look of your entryway. There are a few simple steps to follow when selecting a new kick plate for your door. First, measure carefully – kick plates are not the width of the door – allow ½ inch of extra room on either side of the kick plate for proper installation and function. Second, remember to pay attention to the type of mount needed (magnetic kick plates will not work of wooden doors and screw mount might be compatible on a metal door). Note: By adding a kick plate to your exterior door it will tie together the rest of your door hardware. Replace older knobs, doorbells and knockers in the same finish and different designs will tie together nicely.
Kick plates are readily available online as well as in many home decorating catalogs. Search for solid brass construction for increased durability and remember to ask questions. Kick plates can be ordered in custom sizes and finishes so if you don’t see exactly what your looking for check on the availability of other sizes. These kick plates can be found online through LookInTheAttic & Company and they offer free design assistance and free custom quotes.

Weather Vane - A Gorgeous Outdoor Fixture
Your home, for the most part you are pretty pleased with how it looks. You just installed new siding, a new roof, and even put in new front windows. For some reason though, you still think that it is missing something, like an extra special, finishing touch. Well, there are a lot of outdoor fixtures that can get the job done, but nothing works better than weather vane. It is a fabulous selection that will make your home stand out from the rest.
A weather vane has a spectacular appearance that would really add to the look of your home. In the past, its primary purpose was to let people know which direction the wind was blowing, which was particularly helpful for farmers and their planting. However, over the years, they have take on a more decorative appearance and even though they still provide that valuable function, they are more of an ornamental piece available in many styles and designs. Some of those designs include ones that have a nature theme that feature bear, wolf, moose, deer, ducks, and pheasant. There are others that have more of a whimsical charm that feature fairy tale or fantasy themes with the cow jumping over the moon and angels or fairies. You can even get ones that have a cowboy figurine on them and others that are in the shape of airplanes, locomotive, country doctors, motorcycles, dogs, cats, birds, golfers, ships, horses, and many, many others. If you want a fast and hassle free way to check out all of the different options, forget about jumping in your care and heading down to the local garden store, instead just plop yourself down and browse the internet. Just by the click of the mouse all of the wonderful choices will be sprawled out right in front of your eyes. Plus, going online is a great way to do comparison shopping so you can find exactly what you want at the best possible price.
Another thing that also makes this a weather vane such an extremely beautiful, along with all the eye-catching designs that are available, are all the lovely materials that it can be made from like copper, aluminum, brass, iron, and steel. And, not only would a weather vane be a nice addition to any home, but it would be a great way to spruce up the look of other outdoor buildings and spaces as well. For example, maybe you have a backyard shed that is looking a bit on the boring side, well, one would be a nice choice for improving its look. Other nice places that you could put one include any garden area, backyard fence, and even on a clothesline.
So, if you are looking for that extra special something to put an exclamation point on your outdoor space, a nice option would be a weather vane. There are many eye-catching selections that are available and one would be a fantastic choice so your home can stand out from the rest in a spectacular way.
