Go to Top Katonah Products About ContactResourcesFinishes +Katonah Architectural Hardware began in the corner of a small paint and hardware store owned by retired architect, Paul Baren [Skidmore, Owings & Merrill] located in Katonah, NY. Paul’s son, Andrew, purchased the business from his father in 1987, after he discovered a demand for fine architectural hardware, forming the beginnings of the establishment we see today.After over 35 years, the business has evolved to include four showrooms located in Katonah, New York City and two in Chicago. Our products have been used in prominent residential and commercial projects around the world, during which we’ve had the privilege of working with some of the most influential architects and interior designers in the industry. Our styles range from contemporary to traditional and our experienced team of hardware specialists are well-versed in all of the diverse products we offer. Most recently, we expanded to offer lighting and furnishings, which are carefully selected and crafted to carry on the design elements of our hardware, to ensure each product is the perfect addition to any space.
