Turnstyle Designs was established in 1992, at a time when door hardware was considered to be primarily functional and lacked any real innovation. Turnstyle Designs was created with a vision to shake up the market and introduce innovative design, processes, and new materials. Founded by Steve and Christina Roberts, the company is still privately owned by The Roberts Family, with Steve and Christina’s eldest son Oscar now running the business. We are extremely proud of our long standing, dedicated crew of staff, manufacturing our products with a blend of craftsmanship and engineering to the very highest of standards and our sales and support team who pride themselves on offering outstanding service. Over 30 years on, Turnstyle Designs is considered one of the foremost producers of luxury, design led, door hardware in the world, supplying some of the most prestigious and interesting building and superyacht projects in over 50 countries worldwide. What once started out in a makeshift workshop at the end of the garden, has now become an award winning, renowned global business, operating out of purpose-built factory and offices, in beautiful North Devon, England.
