What makes matt black radiators special?

Matt black is a unique finish to have on a radiator and one which is gaining popularity, in large part to many homes now having more grey and black tones in rooms. If you’ve recently redecorated your kitchen with slate or light grey features, matt works in a complementary finish.

A lot of customers are making a move towards matt for their radiators, as they feel the traditional glossy finish a radiator typically has doesn’t mesh well with the rest of the room.  If you’d like an idea of the different types of black you can get, have a look at our range of black radiators.

And if the matt style is something you want around the home, our range of satin radiators prove a similar brushed finish in a lighter tone.

What are matt black radiators made of?

Matt black radiators are made from steel. Most will be 1.25mm thick steel, but you’ll be able to find out exact specs within each product’s page.

What shapes and styles do matt black radiators come in?

This range is available in both horizontal and vertical styles, the latter of which is proving to be a great option for customers looking for a stylish and reliable vertical matt black radiator in their hallways and kitchens.

If you’re unsure what type of radiator you need for a room, Trade Radiators has you covered. You can shop for radiators by room and get an idea of what looks best in different spaces.

Matt black Column Radiators

Many of the radiators in stock are column radiators. If you have traditional panel radiators and are worried that a column radiator will take up more space, these are the average widths for our column matt black radiators:

• 2 columns – 66mm
• 3 columns – 107mm
• 4 columns – 148mm
• 6 columns – 230mm

We also recommend working out the heating requirements for your room as a new radiator, even the same size, won’t have the same output. 

Why are most of these matt black radiators made by Apollo?

Apollo is one of the only brands out there we believe to produce matt black radiators to a high standard. They create dynamic radiators which provide a modern twist to many traditional styles. If you’re in the process of updating the radiators in your home, check out the full Apollo radiator range.

Does my matt black radiator come with everything I need for installation?

No need to worry about special brackets and other bits & bobs. Your order will be delivered with all the necessary fittings for a standard installation. 

With matt black such a unique look, we recommend you get complimentary black radiator valves to give your installation a more complete look on the wall. Mismatched valves can sometimes give an “odd socks” look that makes the radiator stand out for all the wrong reasons.

How long does it take to get a matt black radiator delivered?

Delivery times will vary based on the product, but most black matt radiators are delivered within a week (4 to 5 working days). You can see more about our delivery process here.
