Architectural Hardware: What Is It and How It’s Related to PullCast! ⇒ What is Architectural Hardware? First of all, one needs a disclaimer. Don’t confuse architectural hardware with hardware architecture, because the two are completely different. The latter relates to the identification of a system’s physical components and their interrelationships so, and it is more connected to engineering and computing sectors, whereas architectural hardware lands in the field of design and building industries!

As you can see by the provided definition, architectural hardware relates to hardware elements, such as hinges, locks, catches, knobs, and handles that are specifically included in the basis of any house. They serve a practical function, but they also serve a decorative purpose and may be considered part of the decorative treatment of a room or a building.
This type of architectural hardware elements don’t include, for instance, cabinet pulls of a certain furniture piece that’s included as a part of a decorative element of the house, therefore it isn’t a component of the building process and of the structure of the house. We can call that a decorative hardware.
