McGuire is proud to unveil our new Grandview Special Finishes line — eight upscale finishes for plumbing fixture trim, designed for luxury high-rises, boutique hotels, and premium commercial spaces where design runs from ceiling to floor.

✨ Brushed Stainless · Brushed Gold · Brushed Nickel
✨ Polished Nickel · Polished Brass · Matte Black
✨ Venetian Bronze · Oil Rubbed Bronze

Applied using advanced PVD, plating, and powder coating processes for lasting durability and beauty that doesn't fade. And underneath every finish — solid brass, machined by McGuire.

Full fixture trim packages available across stop valves, supply lines, P-traps, strainers, lavatory drains, and PRODRAIN® — so every visible component matches. Seamlessly.

Luxury is in the details. Grandview delivers them all. ☘️

There's a reason the McGuire Classic Series has been in spec books for decades.

Cast brass J-bend. 17-gauge tubular wall bend. Full 11-1/2" [C-E] rough-in, complete. 2" water seal. Brass nuts throughout. ASME and CSA approved.

For engineers: those numbers matter. A proper water seal protects indoor air quality. Cast brass survives the maintenance cycles that crush lighter traps. And a complete rough-in means fewer callbacks for your contractor.

For building owners: it means the trap under every lavatory in your building is still doing its job for many years to come.

Moving water from place to place since 1952 — and doing it to spec.
