I've been looking around for a half circle push plate to dress up some interior doors and give them an Asian feel. Manufacturers exist, but they seem to cater to the commercial market and I have not found a retailer or internet seller interested in a small (8 pieces) order. Here's an image of what I'm looking for:
275767
In this case, the manufacturer offers the product in "oil rubbed bronze" finish with cylinder and turn knob cutouts at additional cost. I need the standard residential 2-1/8" cutout with a 2-3/8" backset. Any idea where I should be looking? What should I pay for something like this? Thanks for any help. I've searched variations of "Asian Hardware," looking for something more authentic, but I have not found anything large enough for a door. Lots of stuff in cabinet hardware.
I also thought about having a sheet metal shop cut them from brass, but I don't know how to achieve the "oil rubbed bronze" look.
