MOME Oy

What they make

According to their website, Mome Oy makes design door handles and related door hardware for public buildings, manufactured at its own workshop in Porvoo, Finland. The company was founded in Helsinki in 1957 and has relocated twice (to Vantaa in 2000, then Porvoo in 2011) while keeping the same craft-based production. Its catalogue spans two collections, one from 1957-1999 and one from 2000-2021, developed with Finnish architects and designers, built around a proprietary concealed through-fastening mounting system installed with a dedicated tool. Handles fit metal, wood, fire-rated and glass doors, including narrow 30mm profiles. Metal parts are offered in brushed brass, polished or chrome finishes, with copper plating, gold plating and satin finishes available by special order. Wood components are European oak, finished only with natural UV-protected wax, no lacquer. In-house processes include turning, milling, heat treatment, bending, pressing, silver soldering, grinding and polishing, using CNC lathes and vibration grinding mills; surface treatment, wood parts, bronze castings and occasional laser/water cutting are outsourced. Products are distributed through Finnish lock shops, and the company also does custom project modifications and renovation work.
