Luxury Door Handles
Across Sri Lanka

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

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 Sri Lanka's high-end villas, gated estates and boutique hotels across Colombo, Kandy, Galle and Negombo. 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 Sri Lanka?

Sri Lanka is the shortest sea leg Kakal Brothers ships — a few days from Mumbai to Colombo. Architectural hardware is assessed by Sri Lanka Customs on the CIF value: customs duty by HS code, the 10% Ports and Airports Development Levy, the Social Security Contribution Levy and any applicable CESS, with 18% VAT on top of the duty-inclusive value. The India-Sri Lanka Free Trade Agreement gives Indian origin goods duty-free or reduced-duty access across more than 4,000 tariff lines, and we issue the digitally signed ISFTA Certificate of Origin with every consignment — but check your exact HS code against Sri Lanka's Sensitive List first, because listed lines get no concession, and note that the FTA reduces tariffs and para-tariffs only: VAT and the levies are still payable on the landed value. WhatsApp +91 98202 48166 for HS codes and a landed-cost estimate.

Which Sri Lankaian port should our shipment come through?

Colombo is Sri Lanka's gateway and the shortest sea leg we ship — a few days from Mumbai — with Hambantota available for bulk. Goods clear Sri Lanka Customs on CIF; we issue the digitally signed ISFTA Certificate of Origin so Indian-origin lines can claim the concession where the HS code is not on the Sensitive List.

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

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 Sri Lanka?

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 Colombo and Kandy 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 Sri Lanka?

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 Sri Lankaian 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.
