What Is Pulls Handles

 

Handles are used to move an object or workpiece by hand. They are designed with a focus on ergonomics. Since they require manual hand-based operation — as opposed to automated tool-based operation — handles must be designed to comfortably fit and support a person's hand.

 

Benefits of Pulls Handles

 

Quality Performance
If you'll be spending a lot of time in your kitchen, you'll want cabinet knobs or pulls that can withstand constant handling. This is especially important if you have mobility challenges affecting your wrists, back, or hips. Good kitchen handles make it easy to open and close your cabinets and drawers at any height, even with your hands full.

 

Cabinet Durability
Look at the area around your kitchen handles and check for wear and tear. If you have low-quality or inadequate cabinet pulls and knobs, the cabinets can get scratched and stained. Even worse, the handles build up dirt and grime because they're so hard to clean. We highly recommend this DIY all-purpose cleaner for your kitchen cabinets, but there is still a risk of contamination if your hands move from the cabinet handles to your food while cooking. The right handle shape and design will give you ample space between your fingers and the cabinet doors, prolonging the life of your cabinets.

 

Beautify your Kitchen
As the saying goes, knobs and pulls are like jewelry for your kitchen. This is where the finishing, scale, and style come into your choice of cabinet handles. Visit a kitchen fixture showroom to see and touch the kitchen handles yourself. This way, you can visualize your ideal kitchen design before investing in your new cabinet look.

 

Customizable Options
You don't have to settle for basic cabinet handles. Find out if you can customize the size, shape, color, or finish to your specifications.For example, sleek chrome cabinet pulls may be the ideal size and shape for you, but perhaps you can find the same design in a black or copper finish instead. Tailor your kitchen handles as much as possible for the best cooking experience and aesthetic.

 

Types of Pulls Handles
 

Handle Pulls
Also called drawer pulls, handle pulls are mounted to cabinets with two screws, so they can often be trickier to install than a knob. However, handle pulls are by far the most popular type of cabinet hardware due to their function and wide range of styles. They typically have a bar or rod-like look and come in matching finishes or styles to knobs so you can coordinate them with your kitchen cabinet color. If you’re replacing existing handle pulls with new ones, you’ll want to measure the length from the center of one mounting hole to another to ensure your new handle pull is the right size.

 

Bin Pulls
Bin pulls, often referred to as cup pulls, are dome-shaped with an opening at the bottom for your hand to grab easily. They feature a hooded design in various shapes, including round, square, oval, and rectangle. Bin pulls require at least two holes for mounting, with some styles requiring more. Though the more common styles are used in traditional or rustic spaces, you can also find modern versions if you prefer a bigger piece of hardware on your cabinets.

 

Drop Pulls
Similar to a door knocker, drop pulls feature a pull or handle that swings up to open a drawer or cabinet. This pull type is more common on more traditional or ornate cabinetry, since it’s more decorative and detailed. When it’s not in use, the handle lies flush with the cabinet or drawer, then can be pulled up and back down. There are also different variations of drop pulls, from ball pulls to ring pulls and options with backplates. They can be mounted to the kitchen cabinet with one or two holes, depending on the style

Budget
The more cabinets and drawers you have, the more you will spend on hardware. The cost of cabinet hardware ranges from $100 to $10,000, depending on the quantity, materials, and type. If your cabinet hardware budget is on the lower end, however, the options are still plentiful and wide ranging. Often online retailers or home improvement stores will carry styles that work for any type of cabinet.On the opposite end of the spectrum, custom hardware made by hand instead of mass produced will increase the cost significantly, especially if it’s made from a high-quality material such as gold or semi-precious stones.

Size
The scale of your cabinets will help determine what size knobs or pulls or use since you don’t want your hardware to disappear or stand out too much. Tiny knobs on giant cabinets may be hard to spot, while oversized pulls on a small drawer will look off. It helps to measure your cabinets and drawers or any current hardware to determine what size hardware will look best.

Finish
The lighting, faucet, and appliances in your space are a good reference point when you’re deciding between hardware finishes. Some designers recommend matching your hardware to the finish of your faucets, while others suggest mixing metals. Whichever route you prefer, it helps to try out a few options in the room before making a final decision. Whether you opt for chrome, brushed nickel, brass, black, or polished nickel, the options are endless.

Style
A cup pull would look out of place in a modern kitchen or bath, as would a glam knob in a rustic space. The style of your kitchen or bathroom will help determine which type of hardware works best for you. The good news is that each type of hardware has a wide range of styles available, so you’re bound to find a style that works for you regardless of your kitchen cabinet colors or stains.

 

How To Measure Cabinet Pulls: A Step-By-Step Guide

 

 

Measuring Drawer Pulls
Measuring drawer pulls involves first figuring out the three measurements which include the center-to-center distance, length, and depth/projection of the pulls. With knobs, you should focus on the depth/projection measurements as most knobs tend to be really wide or tall.

 

Measuring Center-to-Center Distance
If you are looking to replace your cabinet hardware and you already have pre-drilled holes in your drawer or cabinet, always buy new pulls that have the same center-to-center distance as your old pulls. Make use of a screwdriver to first remove your existing pulls before taking a measuring tape or ruler to measure from the center of the one screw hole to another. If your new drawer pulls cannot fit into the old screw holes, you can always fill the old holes with putty or wood filler. After filling them up, sand them down before restaining or repainting. New holes can be drilled after these steps have been completed.

 

Measuring Length
The length of the pull is important as it needs to be proportional to the size of your drawers or cabinet. It is recommended for you to get a pull that is no longer than one-third of the height of the cabinet door and no longer than one-half of the width of the drawer. If you intend to replace your cabinet hardware and want the same length as the previous hardware, measure from one end of the cabinet to the other to derive the length. It is also important to consider the type of pull that you are looking to get. Measurements can vary by the type of cabinet pull.

 

Measuring Projection
Projection is also known as depth which refers to the area between the pull and the cabinet. This typically refers to the space where you grab onto the cabinet pull or knob. A larger projection will provide more space in your hands so they can fit between the pull and cabinet comfortably. Consider the level of comfort that you are looking to achieve when using your cabinet pulls. For those with larger hands or arthritic hands, it is ideal to have a larger projection. To determine your cabinet pull projection, open up your cabinets and determine how close they get to each other as well as to other objects in the kitchen. If your cabinets swing too closely together or onto another object, you can choose a smaller cabinet pull to prevent any damage from the impact of the swinging action.

 

Installing Cabinet Handles

 

Step 1: Gather all of your hardware installation tools

Step 2: Assemble your hardware jig
When installing cabinet handles, measuring them with accuracy and precision is essential. Failure to do so will result in work that must be redone. When you assemble your hardware jig, calibrate it to zero before measuring.

Step 3: Accurately measure for either a cabinet knob or pull
For cabinet knobs on paneled drawers, lightly draw a midline horizontally on the face of the draw. Use your small level to make sure your midline is level. Next, measure the midline and mark the midpoint with your pencil. Double-check your jig to make sure it is still calibrated to zero. For cabinet knobs on paneled doors, place the bottom of your pull to align with the rail.

Step 4: Drill your holes
Remember to drill from the outside in. Drill your hole with your cordless drill with a 3/16th or slightly larger drill bit. Drill the hole size slightly larger than your screw; you’ll want a little wiggle room to adjust the handles once placed to be perfectly level.

Step 5: Check your placement
After you drill the two holes, put the handle on temporarily to ensure correct placement.

Step 6: Fill in any old holes with putty and sand smooth

Step 7: Install the knob or pull by inserting the screws and tightening.

 

How to Maintain Pulls Handles
 

Regular Cleaning
Regular cleaning is essential for keeping cabinet pull handles clean and free of dirt and debris. Use a soft cloth or sponge dampened with a mild soap and water solution to wipe down the handles. Avoid using harsh cleaners or abrasive materials, as these can damage the finish of the handles. Rinse the handles with clean water and dry them thoroughly with a soft cloth.

 

Periodic Polishing
Periodic polishing can help to restore the shine to tarnished or dull cabinet pull handles. Apply a small amount of metal polish to a soft cloth and rub it onto the handles in a circular motion. Buff the handles with a clean cloth to remove any excess polish.

 

Lubrication
If your cabinet pull handles are sticking or squeaking, lubrication may be necessary. Apply a small amount of dry lubricant, such as graphite powder or silicone spray, to the moving parts of the handles. This will help to reduce friction and make the handles operate smoothly.

 

Tightening
Over time, cabinet pull handles can become loose. If you notice any handles that are loose, tighten them promptly using a screwdriver. Loose handles can cause damage to the cabinet doors or drawers, so it is important to keep them tight.

 

Inspection
Regularly inspect your cabinet pull handles for signs of damage or wear. Look for any cracks, chips, or loose parts. If you find any damaged handles, replace them immediately to prevent further damage or injury.
