Chown Hardware

Chown Hardware Founded in 1879, Chown Hardware is the industry leader in high-quality hardware.

Did you know we work with designers on both residential and commercial projects? For nearly 150 years, Chown has built a legacy alongside Pacific Northwest architects, designers, builders, homeowners, facilities directors, project managers, and contractors to honor their residential and commercial spaces with intelligently crafted and radiantly designed products. Our residential division pairs the

world’s finest architecturally-inspired plumbing, lighting, and hardware with the industry’s most experienced and approachable service—simplifying the design process by locally selecting, purchasing, and delivering the fixtures needed to craft, curate, and construct spaces for modern living and gathering. Our commercial division owns the standard in products designed to meet the demands of high-traffic, day-to-day use and safety needs in commercial offices, healthcare and education facilities, and government agencies. We're the Pacific Northwest's leading provider of commercial-grade doors, hardware, and security products; providing exceptional services including locksmithing, door and hardware installation, and fire door inspections.

Lighting is what brings a room to life, highlighting the details that make a space feel complete. That’s why choosing fixtures that complement your design aesthetic is just as important as selecting the right finishes. ✨

Even better, Rocky Mountain Hardware also offers door, cabinet, and window hardware, making it easy to create a cohesive look throughout your space.

There’s a natural simplicity to water. It’s clean, effortless, and timeless. Qualities that inspired the design of the Boffi-Fantini AF/21 Aboutwater faucet.

With its soft curves, balanced proportions, and minimalist form, the AF/21 faucet reflects the quiet elegance of water itself. Its familiar silhouette even draws inspiration from the shape of a stereo control.

For this project by Studio Renée, Chown Hardware supplied the AF/21 faucet along with more thoughtfully selected hardware throughout the home. Every piece was chosen not only for its aesthetic, but for the exceptional quality materials and lasting performance our products are known for.

We consider our showrooms a type of art museum. But instead of asking you to not touch the art, we actually encourage it.

There’s something you just can’t experience online. Feeling the weight of a door lever, testing the function of a faucet, and seeing the craftsmanship up close helps you choose products you’ll love using every day.

Visit one of our three Chown showrooms to see, touch, and experience luxury hardware in person. ✨

Behind the Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) inpatient expansion are countless details that help keep patients, visitors, and staff safe, including the doors they walk through every day.

For the past few years, Chown Commercial has been proud to partner with OHSU on its In-Patient Hospital Expansion Project, supplying over 1000+ doors, frames, and hardware that help this new space function safely and efficiently.

Products included:
• Stiles Custom Metal – Cold-rolled steel frames & steel doors
• VT Industries – Wood doors
• Pemko – Gaskets & flat saddle thresholds
• National Guard Products – Door sweep
• Allegion US brands:
• Zero International – Door sweeps, gaskets, rain drips & sound seals

• Ives – Hinges, door stops, kickplates, door pulls, push plates & door closers
• LCN – Door closers & magnetic door holders
• Schlage – Mortise, electrical & privacy locks
• Von Duprin – Exit devices & electric strikes

This expansion will increase OHSU's capacity for adult cancer care and complex medical and surgical treatments, improve care for trauma patients, support an aging population, and meet the growing healthcare needs of Portland and the surrounding region.

Healthcare facilities require carefully planned door openings with specialized access control and accessibility requirements. We're proud to help create secure, code-compliant spaces that support the incredible work happening inside. We're honored to have played a role in bringing this important project to life.

Interested in partnering with Chown Commercial on your next healthcare, education, or commercial project? Contact our team to learn how we can help with doors, frames, hardware, and opening solutions from specification through installation.
