I hope that everyone is doing well and you had a nice holiday. Just a quick update to inform you on some things coming up.

As a first update, our 2021 bi-annual catalogs are in the making and will soon be ready.

The new catalogs will be published officially in May and will contain the following new features:

– 11 new levers with exciting designs

– matching pulls and knobs

– a new rosette type

– 3 new handle sets

– 9 new thumb turns

– magnetic tubular latches option

– new finishes

Etc etc.

These new catalogs will also come with an average price increase of 5%.However, I have been informed some prices will be fixed for some popular levers expecting growing sales – as they are disclosed I will advise.

The price increase will come into effect starting May 15^th, but will be officially enforced from June 1^st with a 2-week grace period.

The new prices will be shared by the end of this month.

Thank you for your continued support. Please feel free to reach out for anything and stay healthy and stay safe. Thank you.

COVID-19 – APRIL 5 UPDATE

Despite the many challenges associated with the ongoing pandemic, we are happy to report that our manufacturing facilities remain fully operational.  Unfortunately, over the last month past due orders have been on the rise due to factors beyond our direct control.  Cargo ships continue to endure one of the worst U.S. port bottlenecks in more than a decade. These delays cascade into longer turnaround times as containers are running 2 – 4 weeks late on average.  As a result, many component parts are in reduced supply putting additional strain on already limited resources.

Despite our best efforts to minimize the impact of these challenges, effective on all orders received on or after April 5^th  modified lead times are as follows:

·         Newport Brass Valves – 1 Day

·         Newport Brass ReadyShip – 3 weeks

·         Newport Brass Non-Readyship – 6 weeks

·         Ginger – 1 to 2 weeks

Attached is an Arrow-Gram. The Cove Dishwashers are on hold and quarantined to add an improvement. Once I find more information, I will keep you updated.
  Please pass this on. As the process moves forward, I will update you.
