Whether you’re a DIY enthusiast, a professional tradesperson, or a homeowner working on a renovation, choosing new door handles should be exciting. However, it can quickly get complicated. You might find the perfect handle style, only to wonder: Which latch or lock do I need with this? Do the hinges need to match the handle’s finish? Many shoppers end up confused trying to pick all the compatible bits and pieces for a simple door upgrade. At Door 2 Door Handles, we’ve heard this frustration loud and clear. That’s why we created Smart Match Packs – to take the guesswork out of buying door handles and accessories, saving you time, money, and hassle.
Ending the Confusion in Door Hardware Selection
In the past, selecting a door handle often meant juggling an array of additional components—latches, locks, hinges, and more. For each handle style, you had to figure out which specific latch length or lock type was compatible, and then find it in the matching finish. It's no surprise that many customers found this process confusing and error-prone. Choosing the wrong accessory is a common headache, leading to returns, re-orders, and project delays when the pieces don’t fit together.
We launched Smart Match Packs to end this confusion once and for all, with a simple goal: when you pick out a door handle on our site, you shouldn’t have to be a hardware expert to get all the right matching parts. Smart Match Packs automatically ensure that every accessory you need – from the proper latch mechanism to the right hinges or lock – is compatible with your chosen handle. Plus, all those accessories come perfectly matched in finish and from the same manufacturer, guaranteeing a consistent, professional result. By doing so, we eliminate the guesswork and give you confidence that you're getting the correct items in one go.
How Smart Match Packs Work
As soon as you select any door handle or knob on our website, Smart Match highlights the compatible accessories for you in a convenient pack. This means you don’t have to hunt down the right components—everything you need is suggested exactly when you need it. Put simply, using Smart Match is as easy as 1-2-3:
-
Choose your door handle or knob. Browse our site and select any interior door handle or knob that suits your style.
-
Get the matched accessories automatically. Once you pick a handle, our site instantly shows you a Smart Match Pack containing all the compatible extras (the correct type of latch, appropriate hinges, and any lock or thumbturn if needed) in the same finish and from the same manufacturer.
-
Add the pack to your basket. With one click, you can add the handle plus all its matched accessories to your cart. You’ll know you have everything required for installation (and even enjoy a 5% discount on those accessories as a bonus).
It’s that simple—Smart Match does the hard work behind the scenes so you don’t have to. No more flipping between product pages to make sure a latch or hinge is the right one; the website brings it all together for you automatically.
How Smart Match Packs Save You Time & Money
Smart Match Packs aren’t just convenient – they actually deliver real benefits for your project. Here are some of the ways this feature saves you time, money, and frustration:
-
Save Time: No more scouring hardware catalogues or websites for each individual hinge, latch, or lock. Smart Match spares you the hassle of hunting down every part separately by presenting all the right items in one go. That means less time spent shopping around and more time actually getting your project done.
-
No More Guesswork: Because Smart Match picks the correct accessories automatically, you can be confident you’re not accidentally buying a mismatched finish. This eliminates guesswork and those “oops” moments, so you avoid having to deal with returns or re-orders for incorrect parts.
-
Professional Finish: All the accessories in a Smart Match Pack are chosen to match your handle’s style and finish perfectly. They come from the same manufacturer and in the identical finish as the handle, so your knobs, hinges, locks and other hardware will align in colour and design. The result is a cohesive, professional look for your door with nothing out of place.
-
Save Money: Smart Match Packs also help you keep money in your pocket. First, we include a built-in 5% discount on the bundled accessories as a thank-you for using the pack. On top of that immediate savings, you’re also avoiding the extra costs that come from ordering the wrong parts or making multiple purchases. Getting it right the first time is a highly cost-effective approach – no wasted spend on incorrect items, and fewer shipping fees compared to buying bits and pieces separately.
Default Suggestions, Full Flexibility
Smart Match Packs are designed to give you the best default combination of hardware for your chosen handle. In most cases, the suggested latch, hinges, and other items are exactly what you’ll need for a standard installation. However, we know every project can be a little different, and personal preferences vary. That’s why you’re not locked into the default bundle – you have the freedom to customize your pack as needed.
If you have specific requirements, it’s easy to swap or adjust the items in your Smart Match Pack before checking out. For example, you might prefer a different type of lock mechanism for a bathroom door, or choose a longer latch if your door requires it. Smart Match will serve up the optimal recommendation upfront, but you remain in control. You get the best suggestion on day one, and you can still fine-tune the bundle to perfectly suit your project using dropdowns.
