Handles for Kitchen Cabinet Doors and Cupboards

Choosing handles for kitchen cabinet doors

This category includes pull handles, cup handles and other fittings for cabinet doors, cupboards and drawers. The right choice depends on the existing holes, the dimensions of the front and the grip you prefer.

Measure centre to centre

Measure the distance from the centre of one screw hole to the centre of the other. Matching this measurement lets you reuse the existing holes. Also check the handle's total length, projection and available grip space.

Choose a handle type

Traditional pull handles work on most doors and drawers. Cup handles are particularly suited to drawers, while knobs are useful on smaller fronts. Browse the broader range of kitchen handles to compare more designs.

Materials and installation

Choose from metal, wood and other materials in finishes such as black, brass, chrome and nickel. Before drilling, use a marking template and confirm that doors and drawers can open without the new handles touching adjacent fronts.
