Why Source Hardware from India?

The India Advantage

World-Class Quality.
At Indian Prices.

India is the world's largest supplier of architectural hardware and door fittings, with Aligarh — where Om Engineering is based — at the very centre of this global industry. The city accounts for a significant portion of the world's zinc and brass hardware production.

For European importers, sourcing from India means accessing the same quality metals and finishes as those available from European manufacturers — at a fraction of the cost, with far greater flexibility in MOQ and customisation.

d'art by Om Engineering is your direct factory partner in this ecosystem — with no middlemen, no agent commissions, and full visibility of your production process.

"Aligarh is to hardware what Murano is to glass."

The city of Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh, produces hardware that supplies markets across Europe, the Middle East, Africa and Southeast Asia. With generations of metalworking expertise and a fully developed supply chain, Aligarh delivers world-class products at unmatched value.

Key Reasons

Why European Buyers Choose India

Six compelling reasons why the world's importers trust India for architectural hardware.

💰

Significant Cost Savings

Indian manufacturing costs are 40 — 60% lower than European or Chinese alternatives for comparable quality. For importers, this means healthier margins or more competitive retail pricing.

🎨

Custom Design Capability

Unlike most Chinese manufacturers who supply fixed catalogue items, Indian factories like Om Engineering can produce truly bespoke hardware — your design, your dimensions, your finish.

🔒

Quality Metals & Alloys

India has excellent access to high-grade brass, zinc, aluminium, and iron. Our in-house production ensures consistent alloy composition and surface quality across every batch.

📦

Flexible MOQ

We don't require you to commit to container-loads. Our flexible minimum order quantities make it practical for growing importers and distributors to test new products without large upfront risk.

🚢

Export-Ready Infrastructure

Om Engineering is fully set up for international export — experienced in documentation, HS codes, packaging for sea freight and air freight, and working with European freight forwarders.

🤝

Direct Factory Partnership

When you source from d'art, you are buying directly from the manufacturer — no agents, no intermediaries. You get full transparency, real-time updates, and a dedicated point of contact.
