Do not underestimate kitchen cabinet handles. When remodeling your kitchen, you’ll discover the importance of cabinet hardware. Cabinet knobs or drawer pulls may be small, but they have the power to impact your kitchen space.

Kitchen Cabinet Handles

After you spend hours and days looking at countertops, appliances, flooring, and cabinet hardware, it’s easy to overlook cabinet handles. You don’t want to make this mistake, which is why we’re here.

Choosing cabinet handles for your brand new kitchen might seem like a small decision because the handles aren’t big. However, and just as it is with fashion, every piece or component is important for your overall look.

And here’s something else to consider, a kitchen remodel isn’t necessary if you want to change your cabinet hardware. 

Kitchen Cabinet Handle Styles

Kitchen Cabinet Handle Styles

There are two kitchen cabinet handle categories: pulls and knobs. Both categories offer hundreds of styles. So, the journey begins with choosing between a pull handle or knob handle.

1. Drawer Pulls

Drawer pulls are larger and easier to use. They require two screws to install. The cabinet handles have different features and are available in multiple styles and sizes. Bar pulls, arches, rings, and drop handle pulls come in recessed and cup varieties.

Some types require one screw, however, with ring and pendant styles, they also work as replacements. Drawer pulls are common among new cabinets in contemporary or modern kitchens. If you wanted to think outside of the box, install bar pulls of different sizes.

2. Cabinet Knobs

You already know what a doorknob is, well, a cabinet handle knob is almost the same. A cabinet knob is installed on a drawer or door with a single screw. Knob styles come in different varieties, including mushroom-shaped or square, to bars and geometric designs.
