Luxury Door Handles
Across Nigeria

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

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 Nigeria's high-end villas, gated estates and boutique hotels. 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 Nigeria?

Architectural hardware imported into Nigeria attracts ECOWAS Common External Tariff duty — normally the 10% intermediate-goods or 20% finished-goods band depending on the 10-digit HS code — plus a 7% surcharge on the duty, a 1% Comprehensive Import Supervision Scheme (CISS) fee on FOB, the 0.5% ECOWAS Trade Liberalisation Scheme levy on CIF, and 7.5% VAT charged on the sum of all of those. Building hardware is a SONCAP-regulated product line, so a Standards Organisation of Nigeria Product Certificate must be in hand before the Form M is opened, and a shipment-specific SONCAP Certificate must be issued before loading — cargo arriving without one is refused release by the Nigeria Customs Service. Kakal Brothers ships export-ready: every order carries a commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, we support the PVoC testing file for your SONCAP agent, and we coordinate with your clearing agent at Apapa or Tin Can Island Port in Lagos, or Onne Port for the east. WhatsApp +91 98202 48166 for HS codes and a landed-cost estimate.

Which Nigerian port should our shipment come through?

Apapa and Tin Can Island Ports in Lagos handle the bulk of container traffic for Lagos, Ibadan and the west; Onne Port and Rivers Port serve Port Harcourt and the east; and Kano is served inland by road and by the Kano Inland Dry Port. Kakal Brothers coordinates with your clearing agent at whichever gateway your Form M nominates.

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

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 Nigeria?

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 Lagos and Abuja as well as the wider resort and executive-housing market across Nigeria.

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

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 Nigerian 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.
