Guild of Architectural Ironmongers

The Guild of Architectural Ironmongers (GAI) is the voice of the architectural ironmongery sector.

Working as a not-for-profit professional association, the GAI supports, assures and represents architectural ironmongers, wholesalers, and manufacturers around the world.

We promote the highest standards of education, technical excellence and professionalism in our sector, and promote these standards to the wider construction industry and its clients.

To achieve our mission of advancing architectural ironmongery, we collaborate with trade bodies across all areas of construction including: the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA); the Construction Products Association (CPA); Charted Institute of Architectural Technologists (CIAT); and the Finishes and Interiors Sector (FIS); as well as overseas trade bodies like the Door Hardware Institute (DHI).
