Armac Martin
Luxury Solid Brass Hardware · Birmingham, England · Est. 1929
Since 1929, Armac Martin has crafted design-led luxury brass hardware and accessories. From humble beginnings as the workshop of brass founder Harold McGrail, it is now an award-winning, fourth-generation family business and a leading name in luxury interiors. Every piece is designed in-house and made from solid brass at the company’s Birmingham factory — then finished by hand. In 2022, Armac Martin received the Queen’s Award for Enterprise for International Trade.
The Art of Solid Brass
Proud champions of British manufacturing, Armac Martin oversees every phase of production in the heart of England — from initial design sketches to hand-finishing each piece. Brass is a timeless, luxurious material, and its beauty lies in the vast array of finishes that transform every product. Modern manufacturing techniques ensure quality is never compromised, balancing form and function to decorate the finest kitchens, bathrooms and interiors worldwide.

Bradford’s Point of View
Why Bradford loves Armac Martin
We’ve long admired Armac Martin’s devotion to craft — solid brass, made in England, finished by hand and built to last generations. Their collections bring warmth, precision and a sense of heritage to every cabinet and door. It’s a philosophy that feels deeply aligned with our own at Bradford Hardware — where the details are never just details.
