When hardware met style: Schlage’s favorite couples.

The straight lines in this pairing, along with the Matte Black finish, creates one of the most modern looks on this list. An Eller lever with Collins trim goes perfectly with Scandinavian design, so think of adding it when you are drawn to minimalist décor and furniture with clean silhouettes. The finish gives a pop of visual interest in neutral-colored rooms and especially against a bright white door.

The Collins trim becomes a bit more classic when paired with the glass Hobson knob. Because of the mix of styles, try it in a room with a more eclectic, transitional vibe. The details in this glass knob gleam when catching the light, so large windows and well-lit rooms will show off this pairing to its best advantage. 

This transitional pairing brings charm and comfort to your living spaces. Perfect for more traditional homes, the Whitney lever and Camelot trim are an architecturally-inspired pairing that reflects Spanish colonial influences – think wrought iron scrollwork, clean curves, and traditional warmth.

For a truly traditional feel, try this oval-shaped combination, especially if you have a Federal-style home like those found most frequently in Virginia. In the Antique Pewter finish, it is particularly well-suited for homes with Old World character and stone accents.

The detailed glass Alexandria knob and Camelot trim in Satin Brass combine for a dramatic high-style look. Use it on Victorian-style doors and in rooms with decorative molding to help continue the classic feel throughout your space. This couple is perfect for ornate homes or eclectic spaces looking to bring some old-school character. 

When you need something understated but don’t want boring (because who does?), you can’t miss with the Georgian knob and Addison trim. They’re both simple and versatile yet have a sly elegance that is sure to enhance your home. With their traditional roots, try them in rooms with crown molding – a nod to the Georgian architecture that inspired these hardware designs – as well as in spaces with ornate windows and stained woods.

For homes with a contemporary exterior, try a Century handleset. The Bright Chrome finish pops against a dark, bold-colored front door to make a lasting first impression. The Latitude lever for the interior side of the door will continue the modern aesthetic inside and complement the clean, rectangular lines of the exterior grip. Pair with simple, minimalist décor for a sleek aesthetic throughout your home. 

If you’ve chosen a Plymouth handleset, we recommend the Andover knob for the interior side of the door. This pairing is typically a good fit for transitional homes, but the Aged Bronze finish inches it closer to the traditional end of the spectrum. Because of this, we like this handleset and knob on Colonial homes with six-panel doors and neutral colors.

Sleek and contemporary, the Century trim stands out as the perfect choice for modern homes. When matched with Matte Black, you have a fashionable pairing that makes a bold impression. One unique quality of Matte Black is that it can bridge between modern and traditional styles, so don’t be afraid to use this combo to modernize a dated traditional exterior.

This pairing is ideal for bringing a smart solution to a transitional home. The Camelot trim draws on colonial inspiration, while the Satin Nickel finish looks stunning against dark colors. When you need a versatile solution that blends effortlessly with both modern and traditional styles, this is the perfect combo.  

For a match made in smart home heaven, pair WiFi-enabled Encode™ locks on your front and side entries. With a Schlage Encode Smart WiFi Deadbolt on your front door and an Encode Smart WiFi Lever on your side door, you can easily control and monitor both locks from anywhere using the Schlage Home app on your smartphone. Managing multiple locks in the same app gives you peace of mind to know your smart locks are working to keep your home secure. And for those with compatible smart home systems like Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant, it is easy to manage your Encode locks with simple voice commands.
