Belwith Keeler and Hickory Hardware usually print the finish as a code at the end of the item number, such as SN in P3011-SN. This chart lists the codes used in those item numbers on our store, with the name the makers print for each.
How to read a Belwith Keeler or Hickory Hardware finish code
On the maker product pages we checked, the finishes of one design share a base number and only the ending changes: Hickory Hardware lists its Studio pull as P3011-SN in Satin Nickel and P3011-OBH in Oil-Rubbed Bronze Highlighted. Some numbers have no hyphen, such as B078786GM (Gunmetal).
Paired codes: 26/CH, 3/PB, 15/SN and AP/APN
Some finishes have two codes, printed together: 26/CH Chrome, 3/PB Polished Brass, 22/BL Black, 24/W White and WDA/WOA Windover Antique on the Hickory Hardware finishes page, 15/SN Satin Nickel in the Hickory Hardware 2025 catalog, and AP/APN Antique Pewter on the Belwith Keeler finishes page. Hickory Hardware product pages list both P14444-26 and P3011-CH as Chrome. A 2016 Keeler catalog printed older pairs such as 14/BRN Bright Nickel; today both finishes pages call 14 Polished Nickel.
These numbers are the makers' own codes. We found no Belwith Keeler or Hickory Hardware document tying them to the BHMA or US numbers in our door hardware finish codes chart, so do not assume they match.

Belwith Keeler marble, wood, glass and leather codes
Some Belwith Keeler items put letters for a second material after the base number, as in B077044MW-SN, White Marble with Satin Nickel; in these examples, MW is White Marble, WB Black Wood, WN Walnut, GC Cerulean Glass, GF Frosted Glass, GB Opaque Black Glass, GL Glass and LR Brown Leather. Others put it inside the finish code, as in B074589-GL14. The 2025 catalog prints MB-BGB as Black Marble with Brushed Golden Brass but MBBGB as Matte Black & Brushed Golden Brass, and calls its chart "a small sampling of the finishes available at Belwith Keeler".
Codes with no maker key
We found no maker key for SM in P8293-SM, BCP on Facette items such as B053134-BCP, or MW-10B on Firenze items such as B077038MW-10B; the maker pages for those items list other finishes. The Hickory Hardware page for P3015 does not list our P3015-CP. Hickory Hardware lists R077745MBX-10G, R077745SNX-10G and R077745BBX-10G as Matte Black, Satin Nickel and Brushed Brass, each followed by "Multipack", and ends the R077745SNX-10G product name with "(10 Pack)"; we found no key for the X on its own.
Matching a finish you already have
- Match the code, not the color word: 10B Oil-Rubbed Bronze and OBH Oil-Rubbed Bronze Highlighted have different codes and names, as do BLN Black Nickel and BNV Black Nickel Vibed.
- OAK is Polished Brass & Oak on P427-OAK but Lancaster Hand Polished & Oak on P415-OAK.
- The Hickory Hardware page for P144-AB describes Antique Brass: "The recesses are slightly darker, or antiqued, with brass highlights."
