People also ask, can you mix knobs and pulls on kitchen cabinets?

Yes. You can mix knobs and pulls. It’s recommended to use pulls for cabinets that are higher up and knobs for lower style cabinets. Lower drawers that slide are typically fitted with a pull handle.

Then, should I use knobs or pulls on kitchen cabinets? There are no strict rules to follow when choosing whether to select a knob or a pull or both. One preference is to use knobs for all doors and pulls for all drawers. For any large door such as a pantry and any pull-out door (including pull-out base pantries or trash pull-outs), use a pull.

In respect to this, should kitchen handles be vertical or horizontal?

The universal rule is that handles are placed vertically on doors and horizontally on pull-out drawers. Stand in your new kitchen and hold your handles against the drawers and cabinet doors to try out different heights and positions for each of them.

Where do pulls go on drawers?

When it comes to cabinet pulls placement for drawers under 24”, pulls are most often centered and installed in the middle of the drawer panel. This creates a really clean + high touch finishing look for your cabinetry. Like with knobs, if the drawer is 24” or wider you can add a second pull.

Where do you put cup pulls on drawers?

Cup Pulls: Cup pulls are only ever used on drawers, and I like to center them in the middle of the drawer slab. If you have a 5 piece drawer (top and bottom rails, inside panel, and side rails) you want to make sure the hardware itself will fit (centered) in the middle panel before purchasing and installing.
