235mm. Not 200mm. Not 250mm. 235mm.

Sometimes one small dimension can make an industrial hardware component surprisingly difficult to source.

A well-known industrial brand recently needed a specific 235mm aluminium cabinet handle — a product they couldn't find through their usual suppliers.

We sourced it and supplied the required solution. 🔧

And this is what Factory Yard is about.

We don't only supply standard catalogue hardware. We help businesses find hard-to-source industrial components with specific:

📏 Lengths & dimensions
🔩 Fixing configurations
⚙️ Load ratings
🧱 Materials & finishes
📦 Quantities — from small batches to production volumes

Whether you need a cabinet handle, hinge, lock, latch, drawer slide or another industrial hardware component, don't redesign your product just because you can't find the right part.

Send us your drawing, photo, part number or specification.

If it's difficult to find, ask Factory Yard.

From Requirement to Finished Hardware

A customer doesn't always need an off-the-shelf component.

Sometimes they need a specific part, a specific cost and a specific delivery time.

Our aluminium louvres for outdoor cabinets are a good example.

At Factory Yard, we work from the customer's requirements — not just from a catalogue.

Give us:
• the required function
• dimensions or drawing
• target cost
• required quantity
• delivery deadline

We can then work with our manufacturing partners to develop, source or adapt the right hardware solution.

From aluminium louvres and ventilation components to locks, hinges, handles, latches and bespoke enclosure hardware, our focus is always the same:

Meet the specification. Hit the cost target. Deliver on time.

That's the advantage of working with a direct industrial hardware supplier rather than simply choosing what's already on the shelf.

Have a hardware challenge? Send us the drawing or requirement — we'll work out the solution.

📐 No unnecessary gaps — clean fit and professional appearance
💎 Genuine materials — no shortcuts on material quality

Behind every high-quality stainless steel hinge is far more work than many people realize.

This video shows just one part of the assembly process, but the real difference starts long before that.

A typical zinc die-cast hardware item may require around 7 manufacturing operations from raw material to finished product.

A comparable stainless steel hinge can require up to 17 separate operations, including:
• Laser cutting or stamping
• Forming and bending
• Welding (where applicable)
• Precision machining
• Deburring
• Surface finishing
• Passivation or polishing
• Pin assembly
• Quality inspection
• Final packaging

Each additional operation requires more machinery, skilled labour, production time, and quality control. This is one of the main reasons why stainless steel hardware has a higher manufacturing cost than zinc die-cast alternatives.

However, the investment delivers significant benefits:
✔ Superior corrosion resistance
✔ Higher strength and durability
✔ Longer service life
✔ Excellent performance in marine, food processing, railway, outdoor and industrial environments

At Factory Yard, we manufacture and source a wide range of stainless steel hardware, including hinges, compression locks, quarter-turn locks, handles, latches and bespoke OEM components.

Quality isn't just about the material—it's about every manufacturing step behind it.
