Luxury Door Handles
Across Colombia

Do you supply luxury door handles to villa contractors and developers in Colombia?

Yes — direct from our Mumbai workshop with no distributor margin. Kakal Brothers has manufactured solid-brass, S.S. 304 and genuine Swarovski-crystal door handles, lever handles and cabinet knobs since 1960, and supplies the contractors, developers, architects and interior designers building Colombia's high-end villas, gated estates and boutique hotels across Bogota, Medellin and Cartagena. Send your BOQ or door schedule and we quote per item. WhatsApp +91 98202 48166.

What import duty and VAT apply to door handles shipped to Colombia?

Architectural hardware imported into Colombia is assessed by the DIAN on the CIF value: import duty by subpartida arancelaria - hardware lines typically fall in the 5% to 15% band - plus 19% IVA on the duty-inclusive value. There is no India-Colombia free trade agreement in force, so Indian-origin goods land at the full MFN rate; Colombia's Pacific Alliance and other FTA preferences apply to partner-country origin, not to ours, and claiming otherwise without a valid certificate of origin is the most common and most expensive mistake importers make here. A Zona Franca can defer or reduce the burden if you are holding stock. Consignments clear at Cartagena, Barranquilla, Santa Marta or Buenaventura.

Which Colombiaian port should our shipment come through?

Cartagena is the main container gateway and serves Bogota and Medellin by road, with Barranquilla and Santa Marta on the Caribbean and Buenaventura on the Pacific. A Zona Franca can defer duty and IVA if you are holding stock across a phased handover.

How long does it take to get door handle samples to a site in Colombia?

Once you send your BOQ or door schedule we quote per item and air-freight samples to site — typically 10 to 15 working days for standard finishes, and 3 to 4 weeks for fully custom or branded profiles. Sea freight for the main order is quoted separately against your programme dates. WhatsApp +91 98202 48166 with your project details for an exact timeline.

Do you supply hardware for hotels and branded residences in Colombia?

Yes. We run a dedicated bespoke-manufacture service for hospitality contractors and interior designers — custom profiles, engraving, branded handles and project (BOQ) pricing across guestrooms, suites and public areas. That covers the boutique-hotel and serviced-apartment pipeline in Bogota and Medellin as well as the resort and executive-housing work along the Western Region coast.

What does a full hardware package cost for a luxury villa in Colombia?

For a large villa or bungalow, a full door and cabinet hardware package typically starts in the range of ₹6–10 lakh ex-works and scales up for bespoke Swarovski-crystal or PVD-gold specifications. Pricing is quoted per item against your actual door schedule rather than as a package rate, so the figure moves with door count, finish and handing. Freight, duty and VAT are additional and depend on your port and HS classification.

Can you work to an architect's or interior designer's specification?

Yes — that is most of what we do. Send the specification, the finish schedule and the handing, and we manufacture to it. We can match an existing European specification at a fraction of the list price, produce a custom profile from a drawing, or engrave and brand handles for a developer's own estate identity.

Do you work with Colombiaian developers on multi-unit estates?

Yes. Gated estates and multi-unit schemes are the strongest fit for direct manufacturer supply, because a repeated door schedule across dozens or hundreds of units is exactly where the distributor margin hurts most. We quote per item at project volumes, hold the specification across phases so later units match earlier ones, and ship against your programme.
