Chrome Escutcheons

Chrome escutcheons are small but important door fittings used to surround and protect a keyhole, helping to give the lock area a cleaner and more finished appearance. They are commonly fitted with mortice locks, deadlocks and sashlocks on internal and external doors, and are often used alongside door knobs or lever on rose handles where there is no keyhole built into a backplate. In chrome, an escutcheon adds a neat silver detail that keeps the lock looking tidy while helping the surrounding door surface stand up to everyday key use.

When choosing chrome escutcheons, the main point to check is the type of lock or cylinder they need to suit. Standard keyhole escutcheons are used with traditional mortice locks, while euro profile escutcheons are shaped for euro cylinders often found on modern locking systems. Covered escutcheons can help conceal the keyhole when not in use, while open escutcheons provide quick access and a simpler look. Size, shape and fixing style are also worth considering, especially when matching them with round rose handles, square rose handles, door knobs or existing chrome ironmongery.

Chrome escutcheons are useful for completing both new door installations and replacement door furniture projects, particularly where a handle set does not include an integrated keyhole plate. They can be fitted to bedrooms, offices, storage rooms, entrance doors and other lockable spaces where the keyhole needs a smart surround. Browse the range to find chrome escutcheons in different profiles, shapes and styles, suitable for finishing key-operated doors with a clean, practical and coordinated look.
