New product introduction: B1-5 No comments yet

B1 series pulls in Antique Brass

To introduce our new line of 5″cc solid brass cabinet pulls, Cliffside will feature a short blog on each design. The first to be spotlighted is the B1-5, part of the Classic Suite and shown here in Antique Brass. The items of the Classic Suite feature a timeless beveled-edge design, and the B1-5 is no different. Suitable for wide drawers or larger cabinet doors, or for any application where the homeowner, designer, or contractor desires a larger hardware piece, this new standard pull is sure to fill the need.

As shown, the B1-5 is part of a larger set; the Classic Suite now offers two cabinet pulls (the B1-3 and new B1-5), an oversized pull (the B1-8; usable for oversized doors and drawers and small appliances such as dishwashers, trash compactors, and under-counter small refrigerators), and an appliance pull (the B1-12; designed to stand up to the toughest refrigerators).

All of our hardware suites are available with coordinating knobs, like the Classic Suite’s 147, 148, and 149 shape knobs. All suites also have ten designs of hinges in coordinating finishes and two styles of solid brass cupboard latches available as well. For more information on this “classic” design or any of our new 5″cc pulls, contact our customer service department or any of our dealers today!

Featured Suite: Classic No comments yet

hen Cliffside Industries introduced its signature line in the spring of 2009, the Classic Suite required little change. Most of the pieces in this traditional suite have stood the test of time and have been part of our hardware offerings for close to 15 years. Nevertheless, Cliffside has added new pieces in response to customer demand, and we’ll now look at them one by one.

Knobs

161-VB

Many of Cliffside’s customers prefer traditionally-styled hardware, which is why it comprises the majority of our hardware line. The 161 knob is a prime example of a piece whose design is simple yet timelessly elegant. With its attached backplate and beveled face, it is one of Cliffside’s most popular pieces. As with all of the solid brass hardware suites, this piece is available in 10 finishes. It is just under 1¼” in diameter and is 1⅛” in height.

158-FB

The other two knobs in the classic suite — the 158 and the 110 —are also very simple pieces that maintain the ridged element that ties the Classic Suite together. The 158, which is now available in several new finishes as a result of the line expansion, is popular for its rounded face and attached backplate, while the 110 offers a stylistic alternative to the plainness of other Cliffside knobs like the 158 or the 100 series.

Pulls

The classic suite pulls in polished nickel (3"cc, 8"cc, and 12"cc models)

The simple B1 series pulls of the Classic Suite combine smooth lines with ageless style to create this very traditional look suitable for any cabinet application. The 8″cc pulls are now part of this line as well: 10 completely new items! Besides adding the Venetian Bronze finish to the 3″cc line, the 12″cc appliance pulls are now also available in our 10 signature finishes — new finishes include Polished Chrome, Antique Brass, Old Copper, and Black.

K341-OC

The K341 cup pull is a chic alternative to other Cliffside cup pulls. Where the others are crafted in the traditional half-circle shape, the K341 is elongated, echoing the elegant lines of the B1 series. This pull’s new finishes, which include Polished Chrome and Polished Nickel, are already among its most popular sellers.

Accessories

All of the Cliffside hardware suites, including the Classic, can be used in conjunction with any of our matching hinge styles, including the BH2A, BH2A-BALL, BH2A-NF, BH3A, BH2A-NM, and BH2A-NM-BALL.  We also have armoire hinges and offset hinges available in most of our suite finishes. Our stylish solid brass latches (IBCL and SBCL) are the perfect compliment to this suite. Introduced in 2008, the IBCL has quickly become a very popular part of our line, and its lines match well with the bold style of the Classic suite.

The moral?

If you’re in the mood for an upgrade this holiday season, consider adding a touch of class — with Cliffside Industries’ Classic Suite!
