Cabinet Knobs

New cabinet knobs - commonly called cabinet pulls - are the perfect way to refresh your kitchen or bathroom. Cabinet knobs come in a huge variety of shapes, styles, and finishes, which means you can find something to perfectly complement your existing decor. Using these tips, you'll be able to update the look of your space at a fraction of the price of a remodel.

Shapes and Styles

Define your space with cabinet knobs that pack a powerful style punch. Choose between a wide range of shapes, including:

• Mushroom knobs - These knobs are considered standard in construction and feature a larger grip with a smaller base. Mushroom knobs are ideal for creating a minimalist look, or if you're putting together a classically simple space.

• Square knobs - Like the name implies, these knobs are square and project out from the cabinet with room for a grip. They're modern and stylish, and they're the perfect complement to cabinets splashed in bold, exciting colors.

• Round knobs - Round knobs are spherical in shape, and they're available in several materials and finishes. Choose these types of knobs for classic elegance or to make a bold statement in an otherwise simple room.

• Birdcage knobs - Birdcage knobs are typically made from metal and feature an open center - like a cage - with a small base that doesn't detract from the knob's style. Try birdcage knobs in a vintage- or retro-styled room, or when you want to turn ordinary cabinets into fabulous eye-catchers.

• Bar knobs - Bar knobs are wider than they are tall, and they often look like miniature handles. These types of knobs are great for bathrooms - particularly those with small drawers that need a little style boost - and for spaces designed to be simple and modern.

• Oval knobs - Oval knobs are a flattened-out version of mushroom knobs, and they provide more grip surface. They're perfect in spaces where little hands open big drawers and anywhere you need to create a distinctive look.

Finishes

You don't have to match your cabinet knobs' finish to other finishes in your space. Instead, see how the finishes you like contrast or blend in with your cabinets. Choose a common finish like bronze, nickel or stainless steel or add panache with something a little eclectic, like clear or colored glass, chrome, or even your favorite color enamel.

What Size Handles Should You Use on Kitchen Cabinets?

The cabinet hardware you choose shouldn't overpower (or underwhelm). Use this guide to help you choose the right size cabinet knobs for your space:

• For small cabinets, such as narrow cupboards or anything with a surface shorter than 1 foot, use knobs that are under an inch in diameter.

• Standard cabinets, like those you find in most homes, need knobs measuring approximately 1.25 inches across - but you have a little leeway in both directions.

• Oversized cabinets, such as those with surfaces 36 inches or larger, typically look best with oversized knobs that are at least 1.5 inches in diameter.

Expert Tips for Installing Cabinet Knobs

• A knob that's perfectly centered might appear too low on drawers that are below eye-level, so install them a half-inch higher than center to achieve the right look.

• For drawers that are more than 2 feet wide, use two knobs. Divide the drawer's front panel into thirds, and place each knob on the inside of the outer thirds.

• Create a modern look by placing the edge of the knob flush with the cabinet face frame. For upper cabinets, line up the bottom of the knob. For lower cabinets, use the top.
