Knobs and handles are the two most common types of decorative hardware.
You can mix and match knobs or pulls to add visual interest, or use only one type of hardware throughout all of your cabinets and drawer fronts for a consistent look.
Cabinet knobs are mounted to the exterior of the cabinet door panel and are a simple, easy to install option for opening and closing your doors.
They are most commonly used on cabinets fronts, but they can also work for small drawers. They only require a single screw to install and come in a wide range of sizes, styles, materials, and finishes.
Knobs come in many shapes such as mushroom, plate, globe, square, plate, and novelty but all are designed to be easy to grab.
Handles are also often called pulls. They work well for opening and closing drawers and larger cabinet doors where a small knob might not provide enough grip.
They require two screws to install. Like knobs, they come in a vast array of styles and shapes such as bars, rings, arched, bail, cupped, and novelty.
Some specialty handles are designed to be recessed into the door panel. If using this type, it’s best to install them in the shop before installation since they require more tools to fit and attach properly.
Styles
Knobs and pulls come in a range of styles from traditional styles like farmhouse, all the way to eclectic styles like bright colors—and even novelty styles for themed rooms.
The most common styles are traditional, transitional, and modern.
Size
In general, knobs tend to be similar in size around one inch but consider the scale of the surface. If a knob looks tiny on a cabinet, a pull might be a better option.
Cabinet and drawer pulls should be about one third the length of the drawer front and one third the length of the cabinet height, or at a 1:3 ratio.
Here is common sizing for drawer fronts:
For 12 inch drawer fronts, use a 3 inch pull or a 1 inch knob.
For 12 to 30 inch drawer fronts, use 4 inch long pulls or a 1 inch or larger knob.
For 30 to 48 inch drawer fronts, use an 8 inch long pull or knob 1.5 inches or larger, or install two smaller pulls or knobs at the edges of the drawer to securely open and close with two hands.
Note: If you are replacing existing handles or pulls, measure the center to center distance between the two existing screw holes so that you only shop for pulls that will fit, 3 inches being the most common size.
Center to center means from the center of one screw hole to the center of the other.
