If your kitchen or bath needs a facelift or your newly renovated space needs finishing touches, cabinet hardware choices set the stage for the style of your space. Like adding jewelry to your favourite outfit, cabinet hardware choices can instantly add elegance and flare.
Cabinet hardware consists of knobs and pulls. Knobs are attached to the door with a single screw and fit in the palm of your hand, while pulls are attached with two or more screws and are longer, allowing your hand to wrap around. Choosing from countless styles of knobs and pulls may seem difficult, and the following tips present some considerations:
There are no rules when attempting to coordinate your knobs and pulls to your cabinets. It is important for the knob or pull to complement the style of the kitchen and other hardware choices such as lighting fixtures. For example, traditional cabinets are suited for a more ornate knob or pull. Contemporary designs pair nicely with streamlined hardware, particularly rectangular shaped pulls. However, simple shaker style cabinets lend themselves to more selections for hardware. These style cabinets are a perfect outlet for adding something eclectic, such as a crystal or painted ceramic options.
Often, utilizing two different styles of cabinet hardware in one kitchen gives character and subtle visual interest.

Our designers serve to guide you through this maze by thoroughly understanding your space, the elements of your design, and your personal style.
