Cup handles for kitchens, drawers and furniture
Cup handles are a classic handle style with a curved, cup-shaped design that provides a comfortable grip. They are especially popular on drawers, kitchen cabinets and furniture where you want to combine practical functionality with a traditional and timeless look.
With their distinctive shape, cup handles are a popular choice for country kitchens, shaker kitchens and classic interiors, but they can also create an interesting contrast in more modern homes. If you are looking for other types of kitchen hardware, explore our full range of kitchen handles.

Popular sizes for cup handles
The most common fixing-centre measurement for cup handles is 64 mm, which is a popular size for kitchen drawers and furniture. We also offer other sizes, including 96 mm, to suit different drawer widths and designs.
The fixing-centre measurement (fixing-centre measurement) is the distance between the two screw holes. Always measure your existing holes before replacing handles to make sure the new handles fit correctly.
