Welcome
From the Workshop in Brakel to Architectural History

FSB stands for handcrafted precision and visionary design. Door and window hardware that brings architecture to life—whether in the clarity of a handle by Foster + Partners or the reimagined spirit of a classic in the tradition of Mies van der Rohe. Our new website reveals what defines FSB: the fusion of function and form, tradition and innovation. Welcome to the world of good grip and great design.
