Richelieu, a manufacturer of specialty hardware for the kitchen, bath, and closet industries, saw more than $1 billion in sales in 2018, the year of its 50th anniversary.

The Urban Wood Network (UWN) will be holding a free 90-minute seminar at this year’s International Woodworking Fair (IWF).

My work has given me access to manufacturers and designers from all over Europe. Couple that with meeting with closet companies across the United States and I can guess at what’s going to be hot in 2018. I’m going bold with these predictions. Sure, I can tell you soft close everything, but that’s too easy. I guarantee more and more companies will make this the new standard. You are selling a luxury product. How could stock kitchen cabinets offer soft close and you don’t?

Described as the jewelry of the cabinet, decorative pulls and knobs are a significant part of the overall hardware demand.

Richelieu is bringing its astounding array of woodworking and specialty hardware products to Canada’s Premier Woodworking Machinery Exposition (WMS) at the International Center in Toronto, November 2 – 4, 2017.

Exhibitors with the largest displays at WMS 2017 also happen to be perennial favorites, drawing big crowds and capturing great attention each year.

Last week Richelieu partnered with Transform to participate in the New York Design Center’s 9th annual What’s New What’s Next event.

Stickman aluminum profiles fit a wide range of panel thicknesses, incorporating glue traps to create a strong bond, hide overflow, and reduce the need for screw fixing.

Richelieu has just launched a new sanding disk program, and will present it at WMS 2017, the woodworking show running November 2-4 at Toronto's International Centre.
